For the Dutch-born, Wilmington-based musician and manufacturer who calls himself Nicolay, that moment is now. It just depends on how dazzling the spotlight is going to be.
If The Foreign Exchange, Nicolay's R&B/hip-hop collaboration with Raleigh canary Phonte, wins a Best Urban/Alternative Accomplishment Grammy for the song “Daykeeper” on Sunday, it's effective to be blinding.
If they don't, well, it's still going to be pretty bright.
“I do really be deficient in to get it. It's not like, ‘I'd still be happy (if we don't win),' ” Nicolay says, kickin' it from the settle of the crib he shares with his wife off North College Course. “I mean, I'd still be happy … I think we're cocksure enough in what we do to realize that barring any type of, you know, forces beyond our rule, whether it be God or nepotism or whatever, if you really look at it just as a competition based on who is the upper crust, then I think we have a really good chance.”
Confidence to be firm, and honesty, but respect as well. In the same breath, Nicolay gives props to his contest.
