Real Nice is an intimate and laid-back track that takes listeners on a journey through the dynamics of relationships with Da Twin Prince’s signature flair.
Crafted from a deep exploration of beats and instrumental vibes on BeatStars, “Real Nice” was born from the fusion of inspiration and intuition. “The flow came first, then the words,” Da Twin Prince reveals. “The ‘Talk To Me Nice’ part just felt right with the instrumental, and everything else started to fall into place.” The resulting track weaves sensuality with vulnerability, drawing you into the emotional complexities of desire, tension, and romance.
In true independent artist fashion, Da Twin Prince created “Real Nice” from the ground up. The entire song was written, recorded, and mixed at home using only an iPad Pro.

The DIY approach took just 2-3 weeks from start to finish, further showcasing Da Twin Prince’s hands-on, independent approach to his craft.
The song’s lyrics delve into the push and pull of romantic relationships, contrasting the playful sensuality of one partner with the confrontational energy of the other. Through clever wordplay and smooth delivery, Da Twin Prince captures the complexity of love and desire, offering fans a glimpse into his personal experiences.
Born Claudio Kelly in Brooklyn, Da Twin Prince’s musical journey began in church, where he first honed his skills as a singer and drummer.
