Nutta Butta

Nutta Butta has been played on NTS in shows including Manila Times w/ Vex Ruffin & Possiblemusic, featured first on 24 March 2018. Songs played include Freak Out (Instrumental).

Nutta Butta also known as the artist XCIX is an accomplished artist, song writer, producer & performer. He has sold collectively over ten million records.

XCIX (Pronounced “Ninety-Nine”) is the rebirth of a seasoned songwriter & performer. The newly branded emcee first got his big break writing for Markell Riley of the hit group Wreckx-N-Effect on their multi-platinum album Hard or Smooth. He went on to write for other hit artists like Will Smith, super producer Teddy Riley and Hammer. Later, he was featured as an artist (performing under the name Nutta Butta) with multi-platinum performers like Blackstreet, Janet Jackson, Queen Pen and Case. Spawning a solo career, Butta also had a single and video released by Interscope Records for the platinum Bulworth movie soundtrack called 'Freakout'.

After touring the World and collaborating with an array of talent, Nutta Butta ultimately found himself at a crossroad. His name Ninety-Nine (XCIX) tells that story; it’s derived from the year 1999 when he stopped recording and walked away from the music scene due to creative differences at his record label. After a long hiatus, it wasn’t long before he realized that he missed creating music and changed his name to Ninety-Nine (XCIX) to forever remind himself of his love of his art.

Born in the Bronx, New York, Ninety-Nine was introduced to Hip-Hop in the very birthplace of the culture. He eventually found a home in Harlem, New York. His influences weren't limited to the city where dreams are made of. He briefly moved to his father's hometown of Wilmington, North Carolina, as well as to Virginia beach, Virginia, for about seven years before returning to Harlem where he is still based. The artist credits his Harlem roots as the strongest influence on his artistic style and swagger.
