Biography
Born in an ordinary provincial city in Ukraine, Lviv, in 2001, in a Christian family, Nikita from childhood showed creative abilities absolutely in any form. At the age of three, he went to a local kindergarten, where, along with other children, he played, developed, and only adapted to life. In his spare time, he devoted himself to a walk and his first favorite hobby - dancing. At the age of seven, he went to school, where he studied with honors until the fifth grade - the main hobbies of Nikita in the new adult life were drawing and singing.
In high school, the student officially became a teenager and began to really know himself. From the earliest class, Nikita met his first acquaintance with Artem, with whom he later became friends. They became best friends and constantly ran into various troubles.. Fortunately, by 2010, the guys had time to meet another future member of the group - Vladimir. In 2010, they established a three-person creative team called Xlson's Production. In 2012, they truly became successful in their circle; the whole school was aware of all their actions, and the name became popular even outside their hometown. After a three-year 'star' pause, the guys reappeared together in the notorious internet project “Vovkin Vlog” (2015). Nikita (as a Xlson137 and leader) proposed to unite and promote his joint work on the web network, and in order to consolidate his success that same year, all three of them participate in the clip "I'm Here King" by Vova, where Nik became the operator and editor. Further, luck followed luck, both in terms of collective development and in terms of music. But unfortunately with the joining of a new ex-member Anton, the guys did not agree on the characters and in 2016 the group was forced to split up. The old celebrities went their separate ways, and Hilson swam against the tide and settled as a solo person, having gone headlong away from funny blogs entirely to music, again in the same year to meet with foreign producer Anarchy and record Rap-Hit. In Ukraine, the Middle East and Asia, the performer immediately became known under the pseudonym Hilson - curious interested avid fans call Nikita this easy nickname now.
