Nik & Jay is a Danish hip-hop/pop duo made of Niclas Genckel Petersen (born 8 November 1980 in Herlev) and Jannik Brandt Thomsen (born 16 June 1981).


Their #2 single Hot! won them Hit of the Year and Best New Artist at the Danish Music Awards in 2003. Other hits have included En Dag Tilbage (One Day Left), Lækker (Hot), Kan Du Høre Hende Synge? (Can you hear her sing?) and Boing!.


They released a CD and DVD of their concert tour from 2003.


The single "Boing!" and the album, 3: Fresh - Fri - Fly have given them even more success and a bigger variety of ages among the fans.


Nik and Jay played soccer together in Værløse, Denmark during their youth. Nik sang in a punk band and rollerbladed while Jay was a prominent skateboarder. They began to party together then eventually began to produce music.

Mononymous person

Image
Plato, the Greek philosopher, is universally known by a single name. A mononymous person is an individual who is known and addressed by a single name, or mononym. [a] [b] In some cases, that name has been selected by the individual, who may have originally been given a polynym ("multiple name"). In other cases, it has been determined by the custom of the country [c] or by some interested segment. In the case of historical figures, it may be the only one of the individual's names that has survived and is still known today.
