Their parents moved from Puerto Rico and were divorced when the girls were very young. The twins' mother remarried with a DJ, who also happened to be Puerto Rican. They grew up in the Queens and Roosevelt Island sections of New York.
Since their stepfather worked as a DJ, the twins were influenced by different types of music. When the sisters were only 7 years old, they wrote their first song, "Sisters", and by the time they were 10, they already knew that they wanted to become singers.
The twins' parents were very supportive of their daughters' ambitions. The stepfather even gave them guitar and drum lessons. They were taken to auditions and, on some occasions, they even performed on some showcases. The sisters wanted to come up with a name of their own and by using the first two syllables of their names "Ni" and "Na", came up with Nina. They then added Sky, which for them represented "the sky's the limit".
They continued to go to school and, in their spare time, worked as DJ's. In the year 2000, they met the Jettsonz, a pair of music producers who helped them develop their own sound.
In 2004, Jettsonz introduced the girls to Cipha Sounds, a hip hop DJ who worked for the Star Trek record label. Cipha Sounds was impressed when he heard the girls sing and suggested that they use the Coolie Dance Riddim. The twins then proceeded to write "Move Ya Body", mixing riddim with Caribbean moves and made a demo.
The demo fell into the hands of Eddie O'Loughlin, the president of Next Plateau Entertainment (which is a division of Universal Records). O'Loughlin signed the twins to a contract and they started working on their debut album.
The single "Move Ya Body" was released on April 27, 2004 and reached number 17 in the hit charts. Urban music and rhythmic top 40 stations quickly added the song to their play lists, sending the song up the charts. By July 17, "Move Ya Body" had gone to the top 5 on both sides of the Atlantic and had also reached the top 5 of a world combined r&b chart based on the US, UK, Germany, France and Australia. The song had also reached the top 50 of the Australian charts. On June 29, 2004 they released their first, self-titled, album, featuring Betty Wright.
Nina Sky's upcoming album, "The Musical", was originally slated for a Sept. 2006 release. The album has since been pushed to Fall 08 and it marks the girls' sophomore effort. Producers include Ryan Leslie, Cipha Sounds, Cool & Dre, LunyTunes, The Jettsonz & more. Guests include Rick Ross, Trey Songz, Ne-Yo, Styles P. & Sheek Louch. A few buzz tracks have been making rounds across the net including, "Flippin' That", a Cool & Dre produced track which features Def Jam rapper Rick Ross. As well as, "Sugar Daddy" a cool mid tempo heater track, and "Clothes Off" featuring Daytona.

Nina Sky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It adds ton frustrating like those things you say
Actin' like you ain't feelin' me,
Your boys come around then you start thrillin' me
[Chorus: x2]
Gonna let you know how I feel today
Ain't gonna take ya shit
No more no more no more
we don't know we can work it out [Repeat: x2]
So lets just let it go
No use in stayin' around
No take it slow today is done
For sure and let it go let go
You starin' now talkin' 'bout you want to work it out
Ain't goin' ya way ya better leave here today oh
And don't forget your things
Ya gold and your diamond rings
Cause I would pwan those things
Don't mess with me baby
[Chorus: x2]
Now sorry that we didn't make it through
Just that I ever got with you and all the shit
You ever put me through,
Let me show you what I can do ya things are packed
Ya cars on smash ya money stashed now live with that
(I told you stop callin' me,it's over, live your life)
[Chorus: x2]
The lyrics of Nina Sky's song Let It Go describe the singer's frustration with her unemotional and immature partner. She has reached her limit in dealing with his behavior, which includes not expressing his feelings for her but instead acting differently around his male friends. The chorus emphasizes her decision to leave the relationship and no longer put up with his games. She encourages him to move out and take his possessions, including his gold and diamond rings. In the end, she asserts that she will not tolerate his attempts to reconciliation and will move on from him.
Overall, the song seems to be about letting go of a toxic relationship and moving on from an emotionally unavailable partner. The repeated affirmation of "let it go" emphasizes the need for closure and moving forward. The lyrics suggest that the singer has grown frustrated with her partner's behavior and is now breaking free from their relationship, unwilling to put up with further mistreatment.
