Rapper SawBuck and beatmaker DJ So Nice are Buck-N-Nice.  They are Canadian hip-hop duo hailing out of the National Capital Region that do not fit the profile of most artists in the genre.  Unlike others, their musical concerns are beyond creating the next club hit, flashing money, or keeping up with the latest trends.  Their songs are about life experiences, the community they’re surrounded by, and the general influences that moulded them to the artists and people they are today.

In 2014, they released their debut album, Us Versus Them.  This launched them into the festival circuit and headline tours.  It also opened the doors for several collaborative works with varying artists within the local and international hip-hop community.  Their 2018 sophomore album, EMAG, has been charting nationally in both Canada and the United States.  It has gained the attention of legends such as, DJ Premier, DJ Riz and DJ Eclipse, and has been getting rotation on Sirius XM radio.
