FAITHFUL began her career in the music industry as a very young teen choreographer, DJ and side kick to the memorable and talented late female Hip Hop artist, MC TROUBLE. Faithful showcased her creative and skilled dance talent by appearing on several popular television shows  and tours at the time with MC Trouble. Her work with MC Trouble later lead to numerous  choreography opportunities for Faithful on such programs as the  Nickelodeon KID’S CHOICE AWARDS, THE DAVID LETTERMAN SHOW, and  THE EUROPEAN MTV AWARDS. Faithful also was called upon to work on projects with celebrities such as WHITNEY HOUSTON, LL COOL J, MARY MARY, ICE CUBE and SNOOP DOGG to name a few.   Soon after, Franklin signed a solo recording agreement with Streetlife/Scotti Bros. and recorded under the name of NIKKI KIXX.

Franklin’s directorial debut of Things Not Seen which she wrote, produced and directed received rave reviews as a ground breaking short film.  After key serious trials and tribulations  Nicole rededicated her life back to Christ and would eventually answer her call to minister.

“I went through a lot to come out and tell about it. Jesus delivers! He still heals. He still saves and absolutely nothing or no one is to hard for GOD to turn around for the good, for his Glory, for his name sake!” says FAITHFUL. FAITHFUL  currently serves as Youth  Minister at her  church home in  California.
