Antoine Johnson who goes by the stage name of Noochii B was born March 10, 1995 at Tulane Hospital in New Orleans, LA. and spent his early years of growing up in the 17th ward Hollygrove area. At age 3 Noochii’s mother moved him and his other siblings to the outskirts of New Orleans to Westwego, LA. where he attended various grade schools giving him exposure to many different cultures.
One of Noochii's musical inspiration is Bob Marley who was known for his Rastafarian religion and the other half of his name “Noochii B” from his Favorite Rapper Lil Wayne , Who Also Goes By "Lil Tunechi" who is an New Orleans Hip-Hop lyricist. Young Noochii first realized his interest in music at age fifteen when he began to playfully battle his stepfather who told him that music would be his opening door out of poverty. It was then the young rapper began locking himself in his room to perfect his rap skills against his stepfather for future battle competitions.
As a seventh grader at Worley Middle School, Noochii was a very shy individual to exposing his craft to his peers. After much encouragement from his fellow classmates, he debuted for his peers who then received him as talented and gifted. Soon after Noochii met a well known community member by the name of Bezzy who encouraged the youth to pursue a musical career. Bezzy then invited Noochii to his first studio session where the two created a song titled “Get Money”. Noochii describes the first time experience as “ Nerve Shaking” , but in time and many sessions later, Noochii overcame that obstacle.
Currently Noochii has recently celebrated the birth of his twin and Son Landyn ,Londyn, & Jayce. He describes seeing his future as becoming an icon of music to where the future generation of artist will look up to him and follow the legacy which he created.
