“Solai and I were put on this Earth to do what we do. We weren’t meant to live a regular life. Our purpose is to inspire, create, entertain, and spread positivity. I couldn’t see myself doing anything else.” ~ Jwi-Yoni’ka S. Wicker/ “YONI”
About The Wicker Twinz
The Wicker Twinz have worked with top brands, including: Netflix, Nickelodeon, Extra Gum, SprayGround and Pan-Oxyl to name a few. They began their careers as runway models when they were three years old, and at age six were featured in YG and Future’s music video “Racks on Racks” as fans. Since then, they have made 10 more music video appearances and created all of their choreography.
The Wicker Twinz began to develop their talents at a young age, modeling and speaking in front of audiences while working with designers and performing live spoken word at local churches. By the time they were 10 years old, they had walked in more than 20 shows for Urban Spice Magazine, modeled in three shows for the Kids section of Soft’n’Free Hair Care Product line, and performed at ten Health Fair Shows held by The Men & Women of Distinction in Atlanta.
By the time they were 12 years old, they were background dancers for other local child artists while creating all of their own choreography. Solai and Yoni’s love of hip-hop street dance gave way to their greatness as the “Queens of Dubsmash” by the age of 14. They were named such because they were the face of the app for almost a year, even though it was initially expected to only be for 30 days. The love and support of their fans grew rapidly as they began to share their “Dubs” on Instagram.
The Twinz choreographed a number of dance appearances including Amira J, Trinity Taylor & The Taylor Girls, “Before I Let Go” with Kaitlyn Nichol LIVE at the 2018 BET Awards Coca-Cola X-Box Stage, and many more. They also have a number of performances under their belts such as Atlanta’s Sweet Auburn Festival, Back to School Community Fairs, and Playlist Live 2018 for UpLIVE App.
In the ten months following their launch, The Wicker Twinz gained a million highly engaged followers on their main page. In March of that same year, The Wicker Twinz released their first of three singles, “Main Event.” Their second single “Oh Yeah” quickly became extremely popular with school-aged kids of all levels. It was a supporter favorite at the Anti-Bullying Programs in which the Twinz were performers and speakers at schools across the country. “Oh Yeah” currently has over four million views on YouTube, and “RITENOW” (single number three) was written, executive produced, and choreographed by The Wicker Twinz.
