Nicholas are an American traditional black gospel music husband and wife duo from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Los Angeles, California, and they started their music recording careers in 1981, as a quartet, with the release of ''Tell the World'' with Message Records, yet this failed to chart. They released, ''Words Can't Express'', in 1983 with Message Records, which would be their last album released by them, and this was their ''Billboard'' magazine breakthrough release upon the Gospel Albums chart. Their other albums were released by Command Records, starting in 1985, with the release of ''Dedicated'', and this charted #1 on the aforementioned chart. The duo released nine more albums with four of those placing upon the Gospel Albums chart, 1987's ''A Love Like This'', 1989's ''Live in Memphis'', 1990's ''More than Music'', and 1992's ''Back to Basics''. Their last album release happened in 1994 with ''Fired Up!''
==Background==
The origins of the duo date back to Philip Nicholas' father who was a repentant Jazz musician, and he became a minister of music around his hometown of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. While in high school, Philip acquired the ability to play the piano, which he utilized in his family band, The Nicholas Chorale Ensemble, that counted as its members Philip's brother, Lonnie, nephew, Steve Jackson, and a smattering of other family members on a revolving basis.〔
Philip went to college in his hometown at Drexel University, who was dating a lady named Diane, at the time, yet she united him with a dorm-mate of hers, Brenda Watson, because she was a shower songstress in the dormitory bathroom.〔 Brenda and Philip would soon hit it off both in their professional and personal lives, marrying on February 18, 1978, that just happened to be on Philip's 24th birthday.〔
The duo would settle in Los Angeles, California, after they completed college and after getting married, and they coined the duo name, Nicholas.〔 They tried and failed to release albums with Motown Records, so Philip alongside partner and brother, Lonnie Nicholas, established Message Records in 1981, and at this time they were a quartet, with another female and male member as part of the group.〔 This brotherly owned label would soon cease, when Philip and Lonnie got in a spat over the labels direction, causing Philip to depart, and creating Command Records.〔
