“Music is the universal term for life”. – Nellie Roxx

Talented, driven and passionate are words that come to mind when describing reggae songstress/writer/composer Nellie Roxx. The triple threat can be heard belting out melodies in the booth which are notably much larger than her small frame. Nellie can be found in the Cashflow studio around the “pro tools area” voicing a fellow artiste’s next hit song, or deep in concentration placing perfect melodies together to create the next hit riddim. It is rare for a female artiste to acquire all these essentials in music, so one would say that Nellie is “well-strapped”.

The musical journey of Nellie Roxx began at the tender age of 8 years old when she started taking voice lessons and learnt how to play various wind instruments. She entered JCDC competitions and was successful in qualifying for national finals each year. Her interest and drive did not stop when she migrated to the US at age 13. At this point she started teaching herself music composition and developed a keen interest in writing music from the melodies she created playing the piano.

Today, back in Jamaica at the age of 21, Nellie Roxx has mastered the art of music in so many ways. “I have been working on perfecting my craft for years and even though there is always room for improvement, I am now ready to share my music with the world”. One of her first projects was a track ‘My Life’ that was featured on the Concrete Jungle Riddim courtesy of Jam 2 productions. In July 2010 her track ‘Tonight’ on the sultry dancehall Pleasure Riddim, courtesy of Cashflow Productions, has been doing great especially in European countries where Jamaican music is highly appreciated by the general public. The track has also been doing well in sales on iTunes.

Currently, Nellie Roxx is working on a reggae single to be released under Cashflow Records once more. The unique blend of live and digital instruments compliment that of her voice to give a new sound to your typical reggae. Steering away from singing, Nellie is also working on producing singles for singers Kimberly Nain, Elise Dash and Khaos, a deejay in Florida.

Her lifelong dream is to become a prominent asset in the music business. She would also like to generate a network of talented young artistes, like herself, and bring them to the public.
