Niko G: My brother is also a singer and all the attention in the family went to him. When I started singing, everybody discouraged me saying that this in not for me, that I will accomplish nothing.

Niko G became a successful rap singer, despite all the discourages she had, included from the family, that did not consider such a music could help her achieve something in life. But the call was there. Not only she did not give up the music, but she completed it with acting. She started in 2015 with PlayHood, in Ferentari, and now is part of Giuvlipen, the first independent Roma feminist theater company in Romania. From 2018 to present she has participated in several Erasmus+ affiliated programs and is a peer-trainer in the project “(Roma) heroes in Theater Education and Everyday Life”.
