Nicholas Gerard Loftin, professionally known by his moniker as Nick Fury (or simply Fury), is an American hip hop record producer. He is known for producing Houston-based rapper Lil' Flip's 2004 hit single "Game Over (Flip)", which peaked at number 15 in the US Billboard Hot 100 and was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling 1,000,000 copies in the United States alone.

In January 1996, Loftin relocated to Atlanta, Georgia to produce soul, hip hop and R&B music. He has produced for a variety of high-profile artists, including Lil' Kim, Wu-Tang Clan, T.I., E-40, Nick Cannon and Trina, and remixed "One Love" and "It Ain't Hard to Tell" for Nas' 10th anniversary edition of highly praised Illmatic album. He contributed to soundtracks to 2001 films The Fast and the Furious and Osmosis Jones, and 2005 film The Longest Yard.

In 2014, Loftin, together with Fadale Northan and Frisco Rivera, produced the theme music and instrumentals for the former world champion boxer Willy Wise workout DVD, W3P: Willy Wise Workout - 3 Degrees of Power.[1]
