He joined the cast after he started dating series cast member, Mimi Faust, midway through Season 2. The relationship provided much drama for the series, as Nikko was often quite vocal about his dislike for Mimi Faust's ex-boyfriend, successful producer, Stevie J. Nikko called Stevie J out during multiple interviews and questioned his ethics and business acumen. Mimi Faust ultimately broke off her relationship with Nikko during the last episode of the season, after she found out that he attempted to hit on one of her fellow cast members. "Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta", a spin-off of the original, "Love and Hip Hop", debuted in 2012 and its sixth season premiered in 2017. In April 2014, Nikko made headlines when it was revealed that a sex tape of him with Mimi Faust was released to the public. The sex tape is expected to be a major plot line in future seasons of Love & Hip Hop. Nikko Smith shares the same name with an American Idol contestant from the ninth season back in 2005. They are not the same person. As a musician Smith released the dubstep mixtape Just Landed as a member of Margeaux with Mimi Faust in 2011. He has songwriting credits on the songs "Let Me Know" by Keystone, "He Don't Love You" by Case, "On My Way" by Tamia, "Easy" (feat. Bow Wow) by Paula DeAnda, "Superfine" by Testdrive, "I'm Hot" by Mickey Avalon, and "Miss America" by Jeremy Greene. He is also known by the name Nikko London.
