Niykee Heaton, the viral sensation who shot to fame over a decade ago with her popular covers of hip-hop songs, has come a long way since her early days on YouTube.
Born Nicolet Aleta Logan in Chicago, Illinois, on December 4, 1994, Niykee gained recognition after her acoustic guitar covers of contemporary and hip-hop hits went viral on the platform. Her cover of Chief Keef’s Love Sosa even made it to WorldStarHipHop’s official site back in 2012.
In 2014, Niykee released her debut single, Bad Intentions, which went on to be certified gold by the RIAA. Beyond her music career, Niykee has ventured into different areas.
She tied the knot with actor and model Jeff Logan in 2019 and the couple welcomed two children together, a son in 2020 and a younger son in 2022. However, they announced their separation in 2021, addressing the breakup on social media shortly after the birth of their second child.
Despite the personal challenges, Niykee has continued to pursue her passions. In 2021, she released her debut studio album, The Lullaby Album, and ventured into entrepreneurship by launching an athleisure clothing line called Naturyl by Niykee.
She currently resides on a farm in Nashville, Tennessee, with her two sons and various farm animals. On social media, Niykee offers her nearly five million followers glimpses into her farm life, showcasing the different aspects of her unique lifestyle.
