Early Life and Education: Growing Up in Miami

Fat Nick was raised by Maria Minucci, a single mother of Cuban descent; according to several reports, he apparently has a sister. His maternal grandparents immigrated from Cuba in the middle of the 20th century, and he also has Greek roots from his father’s side. Even as a kid, he never had it easy; his mother had a lot of trouble with various boyfriends, so young Nicholas never had the right environment to blossom properly. In 2009, he enrolled at an unspecified high school in his hometown, but quickly dropped-out because of hardships at home.

As a child, he was constantly overweight, which earned him the moniker Fat Nick. At first it bothered him, but he soon embraced his appearance and started viewing it as his own unique trait. He harbored an interest in music from when he was a child  – his goal was to have a successful career, and the age of online promotion suited him perfectly, as he could be in complete control of his destiny.

Brief Acting Career: The Sopranos

Maria, Nick’s mother, quickly realized that her son was destined for a career in show business, and so signed him to a talent agency in Miami. Shortly afterwards he was offered a small part in “The Sopranos”, one of the most critically acclaimed TV shows of all time. This is Nick’s only foray into acting, and it’s unknown if he wishes to give this form of art another try.

Career Beginnings: Teaming Up With Pouya and Meeting SpaceGhostPurrp

Nick didn’t make the decision to drop out of high school on his own. His close friend Kevin Pouya also didn’t see a future in education, having other things in mind. Young Pouya started rapping, and Nicholas quickly followed suit – the two learned how to make beats, and practiced freestyling for hours without a break.

Together with friends Shake Well and Germ, they formed the rap collective Buffet Boys, which is one of the most important groups in all of Soundcloud rap.

Pouya launched a successful solo career, and Nick wanted to do the same. In 2014, he released “Drop Em Off”, his debut single, featuring other members of Buffet Boys, a part of his debut solo mixtape “Tha Heart Attack”. Encouraged by the success of their early works, Pouya and Nick launched the “Nick and Pouya” show, a proto-podcast on YouTube, in which they covered music, current events and various taboo topics.  SpaceGhostPurrp saw one of their videos and liked their pizzaz – he collaborated with Wiz Khalifa, Robb Banks and ASAP Rocky, and subsequently took the young stars under his wing, and started compiling beats for them, which distinctly improved the quality of their next few projects.

What is Soundcloud Rap?

Soundcloud rap is characterized by low-quality production, murky vocals and punk influences. Fat Nick worked with some of the biggest names of the genre, such as Suicideboys, Lil Pump and Pouya. As the man who made hundreds of songs while Soundcloud rap was in its nascent phase, Nick is credited as one of the people who made this genre mainstream.

Breakthrough, Prison Time and Comeback

By late 2014, Nick was on cloud nine. – he lived his dream of being a celebrity, with episodes of his show and his songs achieving millions of views on YouTube. To further his fame, he collaborated with other Florida artists such as Lil Pump, Suicideboys, and Robb Banks, however, not everything was positive at this time.

Nick frequently dealt drugs to support himself, and even brushed shoulders with death from time to time. His bad lifestyle choices culminated when he was arrested for heavily injuring an African-American man and yelling racial slurs at him. Nick was initially sentenced to 11 years in prison, but served only a fraction of it after cutting a plea deal, but his time behind bars made him even more motivated to work hard and chase his dreams; he even lost 75 pounds during this time period. Fans were delighted when he was released and immediately started working on a mixtape. “Fat Camp” was a big hit, but his debut LP named “When the Lean Runs Out” brought him even more fame.

Recent Works

In recent years, Nick devoted himself to launching a merchandise line; his T-shirts and hoodies became highly regarded apparel items in the hip-hop world, with resale values sometimes reaching up to $1,000. In 2018, he released “Generation Numb”, his second LP and his first album, with contributions from OhGeesy, Blackbear  and Bexey. There are disputes involving his real debut album, as he released a lot of his early works on Soundcloud, resulting in many songs being uncatalogued.

Fat Nick released the sequel to their 2017 album, his collaboration album with Pouya entitled “Drop Out of School 2” in December 2020. In November 2021, he released his album “Gorgeous Glizzy Gordo” with contributions from Maxo Kream, Robb Banks, SosMula,  Ramirez and Lil Jerry. Then in August 2023, his album “HELLO I’M VULNERABLE” saw a change to pop punk.

Personal Life: Does Fat Nick Have a Girlfriend?

As for his romantic involvements, there is almost no information across credible sources that could accurately describe this part of his life. Nick himself tends to keep news about his partners completely private, and has not yet addressed these fan inquiries. Nothing is known about his early relationships, or his current status, however, he’s admitted to having several casual relationships, and that he regularly has sex with fans and groupies.  He’s never seen attending any public events in particular female company, and there’s no one that the fans suspect as such across his social media profiles. According to the available information, or the lack thereof, Fat Nick is heterosexual and currently single.

Sexual Assault Allegations

In 2017, Fat Nick and his friend Pouya were accused of a number of sexual assaults by female fans, stemming from a report which states that the two rappers sexually assaulted a 22-year-old tattoo artist. Both Nick and Pouya vehemently denied such allegations, claiming that they never had sexual intercourse, consensual or otherwise, with the plaintiff. Pouya’s spokesperson said the following: ‘Mr. Pouya is confident that a basic investigation of the facts will reveal that these claims are false, and once evidence is reviewed these allegations will be determined to have been made by a disingenuous individual.’ Nick’s fans were divided on the subject, with one group accusing the woman of “fishing for attention”, and the other believing the plaintiff, mostly due to the fact that Nick and Pouya openly stated that they “love having sex with fans”. The result of the case is still unknown to the general public.

Net Worth: How Rich is Fat Nick?

According to several credible sources, he has a net worth of close to $1.5 million,, as of mid-2024, amassed by going on several country-wide tours, having several million song streams on various platforms, and merchandise sales. Given the fact that he’s still young, Nick can become much richer if he stays out of trouble and continues building his brands….and that’s a big ‘if’.

He runs profiles on Facebook and Twitter, with Soundcloud, attracting 200,000 people following him.
