Meet Harlem's Own Tahiti Niti




Known Musically as Tahiti Niti, this young artist was born On October 28, 1990 in the Sugar Hill section of Harlem, New York . A Trail Blazer by many accounts, he has Dreams of making it to the big screen via his lyrical talent as well as his personable nature and great work ethic.  Niti is the 3rd oldest and the only boy to two very hardworking and loveable parents who instilled discipline and moral character in their young king.
 
One of the more commonly asked questions asked of this upstart is in regards to his stage name. Very unique and descriptive, Niti took on the moniker Tahiti as a metaphoric ode to his very cool, smooth disposition; something like the Tahitian Weather he once thought to himself. Beginning his love affair with rhyme at the age of 12, Tahiti Niti would use written language as a relief from boredom and an as a means to expression. Soon thereafter, friends and confidants would hear him spewing his rhymes to himself and challenge him to project, which he obliged.  From there a new hobby arose, recording. At the time,  on cassettes. Niti would record anywhere and anytime that he could dreaming of one day taking his craft to one of the famous studios he had always heard about.
 
 
 
 
 Influenced by the late great Tupac Shakur, and in the same fashion Niti pours meaningful content and a real life perspective into his bars, a pledge that is more than evident on his debut project, The Garden, an homage to his hometown of New York City, now available via DatPiff. Arranged in spectacular order, the project is aimed at enlightening his peers, and warning against the pitfalls and disaster that can be seen everyday around his neighborhood.
 
 
"My favorite artists are those who took their responsibility to the culture and the opportunity to be a voice for the unheard very seriously. Given the same chance, I will be one of the greats."
                                             
                                                      (Tahiti Niti)
 
With plans to release the follow-up, The Garden 2, Tahiti is on his grind raising awareness of his brand and increasing his audience and presence on the Hip Hop scene.
