Since then, a well-documented friendship has developed between the two artists, spanning stages, studios, and plenty of bars on both sides of the Atlantic. In 2019, British alt-rocker YUNGBLUD joined American rapper and rock artist Machine Gun Kelly for “I Think I’m OKAY” (off MGK’s Hotel Diablo). Machine Gun Kelly – Acting Like That (2020) Nicholas (born Februin Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) 1, and lastly, 1994's Fired Up! Four of these albums charted on the aforementioned chart, A Live Like This at No. The remaining albums released by the husband and wife duo with Command Records were, 1987's A Love Like This, 1988's Live in Memphis, Contemporary, and Inspirational, 1990's More than Music, 1991's Back to Basics, 1993's The Inspirational Sounds Of Nicholas Vol. 10 and 1 respectively on the Billboard magazine Gospel Albums chart. Two of these albums charted, Word's Can't Express and Dedicated, and they placed at Nos. The duo, but quartet at the time, released albums in 1981 entitled Tell the World, Words Can't Express in 1983, in 1985 the album Dedicated, and a 12 inch single Tell Somebody/God's Woman in 1985. This brotherly owned label would soon cease, when Philip and Lonnie differed over the labels direction, causing Philip to depart, and creating Command Records with ex-Motown producer, Kent Washburn. At this time the group was a quartet, with another female (Linda Laury Harold) and nephew (Steve Jackson) as the main vocalist. They tried and failed to release albums with Motown Records, so Philip alongside partner and brother, Lonnie Nicholas, they established their own record label, Message Records in 1981. In pursuit of their professional music career, they coined the group name, Nicholas. Īfter completing college and marrying in New Jersey, the duo settled in Los Angeles, California where they became musical ministers at the renowned pastor, Dr. Brenda and Philip would soon hit it off both in their professional and personal lives, marrying on February 18, 1978, that just happened to be on Philip's 24th birthday. Diane felt that bringing Brenda to Philip's singing group would give her dormitory floor well earned relief from Brenda's early morning shower concerts. She united Philip with a dorm-mate of hers, Brenda Watson, because Brenda was a loud, early morning, shower songstress in the dormitory bathroom. He was very close friends with a young lady named Diane. Philip went to college in his hometown at Drexel University. While in high school, Philip acquired the ability to play the piano, which he utilized in his family band, The Nicholas Chorale Ensemble, that counted as its members Philip's brother, Lonnie, nephews, Steve and Ira Jackson, and a number of other friends and family members on a revolving basis. The origins of the duo date back to Philip Nicholas' father who was a repentant Jazz musician, and he became a minister of music around his hometown of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Their last album release happened in 1994 with Fired Up! The duo released nine more albums with four of those placing upon the Gospel Albums chart, 1987's A Love Like This, 1989's Live in Memphis, 1990's More than Music, and 1992's Back to Basics. Their other albums were released by Command Records, starting in 1985, with the release of Dedicated, and this charted #1 on the aforementioned chart. They released, Words Can't Express, in 1983 with Message Records, which would be their last album released by them, and this was their Billboard magazine breakthrough release upon the Gospel Albums chart.
