We had the good fortune of connecting with Nice Kaylee and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Nice, how does your business help the community?
YO helloo errbody this is ya boy NICE KAYLEE
from H-TOWN MO CITYYY.

my business is called BLACK COLOR.
created by me, co-hosted by my friend Reymun.

I LOVE colorful things as equally as i do dark.
That;s literally BLACK COLOR.
it’s as simple as two opposite color pallets, but it can go as deep as a way of life mindset.
It’s about being as you as possible. No fear. Being a leader of a minority.
Being a leader of what i call BLACK and COLOR.

We all know there are corporate safe art, music, media, ethics, everything.
But Black Color celebrates people who step out the norm and live in it.
Black Color is a place for me to be whatever i want within this umbrella people labeling me or having cemented expectations.

Like Somedays i can be the biggest ball of sunshine u ever MET. Some moments i like to get really personal, and introspective and get into deep painful discussions. It’s all my favorite balance that i take, and i express it from myself and onto my art.

Whether it’s an album i’m making
(coming soon, VICE KAYLEE a “black album”
or my artwork
or film
or fashion.

ANYTHING that can be expressed.

Im beyond the norm creatively. I want to show that. and live in that 100%
I believe Reymun is beyond the norm creatively, and is a great role model for COLOR.
While i lead as a Role model for BLACK.
I want others to join Black Color to lead those spots to impact others.

For real from the bottom of my heart, I think this idea and this world i created is going to have amazing impact on the world.
Because with us leading these aesthetics, the mindset. It’s going to attract a ton of other people who think and live similarly all around the world.
Because BLACK COLOR is not just about me.
Its a vessel that exists through me to touch millions of other people who always felt too different, and judged for it, and always wanted to be apart of an open minded world.

That hasn’t been done yet, and nobody can do it like the way i’m about to do it.
That’s why BLACK COLOR is going to change the world.
Me (Nice Kaylee) and Reymun are done with our debut album.
We have solo albums coming out.
I have a zine almost done to explain everybody in the world what black color is.
A fashion mag i wanna make.
Music Videos , Skits and other film projects i plan on doing for BLACK COLOR.

2024 starting soon,.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I’m different because i live in a world of my own. Like a nintendo character like zelda or mario or kirby who live in their own worlds.

But i like following with the modern, real world of music and art. and despite me living to do art, videos, fashion, etc, music is my soul.
it’s the main thing that everything will eventually come back to. Music.

I keep up with other artists local and around the world that i believe i can meet in the studio one day.
Kanye, Tyler the Creator, Childish Gambino, to name a few.

Those people are visionaries, beyond music. That’s exactly who i am.

I havent even started my career.
I restarted because my old artist name i was living by wasn’t the releast version of me.
Now i have it all figured out.
i love color, i love dark stuff. I like cute picnics at the park, i like grimey struggle in the streets.
And it’s all me and my real life.
portrayed in those palletes.

I havent met anybody ambitious like that. Nobody i met, has the variety as much as i do, the big vision like i do, and living in that dynamic like i do. Those are until i meet the greats.

The challenge It took to get to this mindset, or this confidence in myself.
Is to throw away fear of what others think of you. Be passionate, smart, innovative in what you know and live in it as much as it brings you joy. Being yourself completely.
To some it can be easy, but me and my environment and people around me, it wasn’t.

I believe it’s those people who never lose their boldness in what theyre passionate to be in, change the world. I’m one of those people whose working to do that. And when i do, i want my change to influence millions of others to also influence the world with their true selves.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
HOUSTON.
1. Speedys Race Way for awesome arcade experience.
2. Gen Korean bbq is amazing in Midtown
3. A nice pretty park. Probably Memorial Park, that’s nice.
4. Amys Ice Cream is dope.
5. The Color Factory is a fun museum of color

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Reymun – Thats the dude i’m doing my joint album with for BLACK COLOR.
Without that guy, this whole thing wouldnt make sense.
He has Soft but crazy rnb vocal tones all over pretty chords and guitars, decorated with pastel colors and childlike nostalgia all over. He lives like that, it’s fire.

Stanley Star- Another artist in BLACK COLOR
he has a colorful palette in a more production based, bouncy wavy more synthy style. Like Hyperpop if it was good, tasteful rnb and another great vocal tone. Truly there is no other artist i know right now that has a sound like Stanley. dude is like the frank ocean of our group. for no reason related to his music, just cause we rarely see him lol.

Lord Fish Face – I relate to this guys grimy and raw and raunchy music. Or persona. Or just HIM.
Yall would see on the surface some insane chaotic dude, but really is just a dude filled with energy who lived some tough circumstances. Also the attitude reminds me of my favourite time in middle school.
He does art, comics, films, and has a video talk show. Another ball of creativity. Im tryna have him involved with BLACK COLOR as a leader for BLACK
