Band/artist history

P.O.V.E.R.T.Y. born Frank M. Thompson, was born and raised in the Arbor Hill section of Albany, NY

He has been recording professionally since 1996

After the tragic death of his cousin Maurice "Big Reese" Johnson, P.O.V.E.R.T.Y. has approached the music scene with a fire that is uncomparable. With a work ethic in the studio only paralelled by the late Tupac Shakur, P.O.V.E.R.T.Y. has literally turned himself into a music making machine.

With a whole lot to prove to himself and the rest of the world, I dare you to try and stop this firestorm on his way to success
