Las Vegas-based rapper Nick Crucial, Co-Founder and counterpart to rap duo POWMINDSET, represents the other side of his city’s offerings. Highlighting the complexities of the human experience while being rooted in his devotion to God are what sets his vision apart. Making light of the darkest situations and remaining humble through his success is how he approaches his art. If he has anything to offer it’s being salt and light to a culture that celebrates the contrary often times.

While attending UNLV, Crucial found himself in collaboration with contemporary rap artist, A$AP Rocky. This led to them working in an Austin, TX studio at SXSW in 2016. After releasing 3 collaborative projects with POWMINDSET, which gained notoriety among major blog publications such as 2DopeBoyz, Crucial is back to his solo works, leaning more into faith and counting the blessings we tend to overlook.
