Pyo Ji Hoon (Korean: 표지훈; born February 2, 1993), better known by his stage name P.O (Korean: 피오), is a South Korean rapper. He is the youngest member of Korean hip hop boy group Block B.

Career

Pre-Debut

P.O attended Hanlim Multi Art School. It was reported that P.O was not chosen as a Block B member because he failed his first Block B audition. A year later, P.O auditioned once more after more training and losing 10 kg, which led him to Block B's final line-up.

2012

Block B's Thailand interview scandal raised netizens to release a petition for Block B's suicide. Due to this petition, P.O was reported to have collapsed and was hospitalized for shock on February 24. To show his gratitude to BBC (Block B Club), Block B's official fanbase, P.O released a song written especially for them. "Dear My Wife" was released into his cyworld on September 25, featuring Winner's Mino. Along with fellow Block B member, Zico, they both were chosen as MCs for SBS MTV's "The Show". When Block B made their appearance on "Weekly Idol" to promote their song "Nilili Mambo", P.O was reported to have come from a wealthy family background. He mentioned that his father runs a duty-free store.

Doomtree

Doomtree is an indie hip hop collective and record label based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The collective has seven members: rappers P.O.S, Dessa, Cecil Otter, Sims and Mike Mictlan, and producers Lazerbeak and Paper Tiger. The collective is known for incorporating a wide range of musical influences into their work with lyrical complexity and wordplay, and their annual "Doomtree Blowout" events held in Minneapolis venues to showcase their group performances and the Twin Cities music scene.

History

The name "Doomtree" is a made-up word that doesn't have a meaning, according to P.O.S, who says that it has come to represent "my people and my life's work so far." Members of Doomtree have described the group's formation as a gradual process. The initial lineup saw P.O.S and MK Larada, friends from high school, making songs with other local artists such as Cecil Otter and Beautiful Bobby Gorgeous. Soon enough Sims and Lazerbeak, fellow Hopkins High School alumni, followed. Mike Mictlan, having also attended high school with P.O.S, became an official member when he moved back to Minneapolis from Los Angeles.Dessa joined after having a chance encounter with P.O.S, who was living down the street from her at the time along with Sims, Turbo Nemesis and MK Larada.
