She described Rosario as a special place, a true home where she experienced the joy of playing outside in a bygone era. Covered in dirt after outdoor adventures, Nicki holds fond memories of her childhood.

Growing up in a household with siblings from different generations, she was exposed to a diverse range of music genres. This eclectic musical environment shaped her early connection to music. Nicki Nicole’s roots in Rosario and her family’s varied musical influences have played a significant role in her journey as an artist.

She is a singer, songwriter and rapper

During Nicki Nicole’s interview with Billboard in September 2022, she also shared that her mom was adamant that she and her siblings “finish school and have a degree.” In response, the aspiring artist opened up about her dream of performing and her mother immediately supported her.

In 2020, Nicki Nicole received her first Latin Grammy nomination for best new artist, marking a significant milestone in her career.

“I had always dreamt of performing at Coachella, but I never thought it would happen this early in my career. I’ve only been active for three years,” Nicki Nicole said. “I used to watch my idols perform at Coachella … I’m not performing at the main stage, but I’m motivated and I know I’ll get there.”

Despite their subtle PDA, a few days after the awards show, Nicki Nicole told Molusco TV, per Marca,  that the two “are friends” and that the media attention on their relationship “doesn’t bother” her.

She brought Peso Pluma onstage at her concert in November 2023

Peso Pluma and Nicki Nicole confirmed their relationship a month later during the Argentinian singer’s show at the Pepsi Center in Mexico City. She brought Peso Pluma onstage to perform their collaboration “Por Las Noches — Remix,” where the duo held hands while performing.

Following fans’ chants for a kiss, Peso Pluma thanked Nicki Nicole for inviting him to the show before leaning in. Afterward, the singer told him, “Thank you for coming, love!” The “Tulum” singer responded, “I love you, my love!” before kissing Nicole again and running off stage.

Nicki Nicole later shared a carousel of photos from the concert on Instagram, including a photo of them hugging. She also posted a short clip on her Instagram Stories and wrote, “Thank you [Peso Pluma] for coming bb.”

She and Peso Pluma made their red carpet debut at the 2023 Latin Grammys

Two weeks after their duet in Mexico City, the couple made their first red carpet appearance together at the Latin Grammys in Seville, Spain. Peso Pluma was nominated for best regional Mexican song and song of the year, while Nicki Nicole was up for best urban music album and best rap/hip-hop song.

Nicki Nicole wore a red latex dress with a corset bodice, accessorized with a silver chain necklace and black platform heels. Peso Pluma opted for an all-black look comprised of a blazer, trousers, a turtleneck shirt, gloves and dress shoes.

The duo spoke to Rolling Stone on the red carpet, with Nicki Nicole telling the outlet that she was “so happy to be accompanied tonight,” while Peso Pluma added that he was “supporting the queen.”

During the awards show, Peso Pluma was set to perform his song “Ella Baila Sola” with Eslabón Armado. “I will [be] screaming the song. I didn’t bring a poster that says ‘Peso’ because the Grammys didn’t let me, but if not I would’ve brought a poster and a bandana,” Nicki Nicole quipped to the outlet.

She previously dated Argentinian rapper Trueno

Nicki Nicole was in a relationship with fellow Argentinian rapper Trueno from 2020 to 2022. According to a joint interview with Rolling Stone in October 2022, they met when they collaborated on Trueno’s song “Mamichula” for his 2020 album Atrevido.

“It was the best way to connect because we could express in the song everything that we wanted to say to each other in person,” Nicki Nicole told the outlet. “We went on a date a few weeks later, fell hard in love, and started making tons of music together.”

The Argentinian rappers collaborated on several other songs together, including the tracks “Dangerous,” “Vuelvo hacia ti” and “Vente Conmigo.”

Nicki Nicole’s 2023 album Alma was largely inspired by her breakup with Trueno. She told Latina Magazine in June 2023 that allowing herself to be vulnerable while making the album was “healing” for her.

“To make it and release it, it feels very good,” she said. “Before making it, I was very turned off with a musical mental block. It healed me to make this album and give it to the people.”

Nicki Nicole added, “To share my life with my fans gives me an incredible sense of peace. There are people out there with a lot of things to heal from. For my music to speak to people and be a source of healing is a pleasure.”

She performed at Coachella in 2022

In April 2022, Nicki Nicole made her U.S. debut as a performer at Coachella on the Sonora stage. The singer’s set included several of her hits like “Wapo Traketero,” “Colocao” and “Baby.”

During an interview with Billboard after her set at the first weekend, Nicki Nicole said she had been “really nervous” about performing. She opened up about not being a well-known artist in the U.S. and the chance of being forgotten at the major event, but when a “huge crowd” showed up, she was overcome with emotion.

“I had always dreamt of performing at Coachella, but I never thought it would happen this early in my career. I’ve only been active for three years,” Nicki Nicole said. “I used to watch my idols perform at Coachella … I’m not performing at the main stage, but I’m motivated and I know I’ll get there.”
