Nephew24. Born Nicholas Soto on March 11, 1989 in Los Angeles CA to Martha E. Sosa, whom came to the United States at the age 3, and to Martin Soto, whom is currently serving time in prison, unfortunatly had to be raised by his mother alone. At the age 2 his parents left each other, and Martha, at the age of 25, with little Nick worked hard to give him a childhood that evry kid diserves. At the age of 7, Nick his mom and step dad Rodrigo moved to Huntington Park California were his passion for music began after DJ Rod introduced him to his pair of Techniques 1200 MK2.

Due to lack of interest, young Nephew eventually transfered from the local middle school,to the prodominatly black populated John Muir Middle School using his grand mother's address located in South Central Los Angeles. Although he was bused west to Marina Del Rey Middle School for his 7th grade year, Nicholas used it to his advantage and learned how to adapt with a multi racial campus containing pupils from several regions of LAUSD. Nicholas grew to become open minded to the different lifestyles these communties created.

After a good living in HP, at age 13 Nick and his family moved to Compton CA. In the fall of 2002, Nephew brought his aura to John Muir Middle School where he became well aquainted with members of the basket ball team. One of which whom held a similar musical interest as he did. Having the same Algebra class, they grew to become good friends and potential rappers in the underground scene. Holding great lyrical abilty along with a trend setting mentality and skills in turntablism, Nicholas "Nephew24" Soto partnered up with fellow classmate Pascual "P-Money" Rodriguez to create "Oh-Boy ent" the first movement of its kind to influence the current generation of party crews and cliques.

It was in thier graduating year of 2003 that "Oh-Boy ent" was officialed with a night out at "Strawberry Sundays", an all ages club event held at Montebello's QC2020. Fellow child hood friends and school mates such as Clips, LouieV, Buck,Stunna, Biggs, Price and Kicks attended this event in wich all were courted in to represent this movement of revolutionizing ideas in order to evolutionize life.

Although Nephew24 got expelled from Fremont High School during his freshman, he was accepted to the fashion program at Downtown Magnets High School due to his outstanding academic performance along with a referal from the current principle Mrs.Blunt, whom also happened to be his principle at Marina Del Rey.

After settling and grounding him self at the 1000 max populated high school, Nephew24 branched out as the co-founders did into creating a clique under the allready buzzing entity, "Oh-Boy ent". Nick acknowledge those relevant to him and formed the "Flamboyant Clique". Included in this fashion talented collective was Artemio "TCS20" Diaz, his cousin Mocha and Danny aka "Loyd" , the Cuban Mike "El Bandolerro", and fellow classmate Joey Jetplane.

With his team looking right, and the representation of the movement under each founding father expanding, the only thing left to do was create the musical product, and so he did. Having several singles and collabs with "P-Money", regaeton influences , "Miko" and MC Daffy" , Nephew24 began to build his first demo mixtape "Broke & Famous Vol. 1". Although "P-Money" succesfully released several mixtapes of his own, Nephew's project is yet to be released. Still, Nephew24 rocked the stages of local venues such as the "Airliner" in Los Angeles both as a DJ and an artist. His talent awareness and energy spread through word of mouth inturn projecting the feeling of potential success.

Nephew was then drawn to 3 felony counts of commercial burglury in Santa Monica CA within his transition of graduating high school in 2007 to attending the local community college "LACC". Upon his release of county jail and 5years probation, Nephew24 decided it was time to change his lifestyle.

Within 2009-2012, Nephew has gone back to rapping along with the occasional DJ gigs. He is currently re-recording the demo "Broke & Famous VOL. 1" and plans to release it late spring 2013.
