P Floata (Phil) was killed in a tragic drunk driving accident in Charlotte, NC on 2/11/2018. In life, Floata was a well known underground artist who helped put the northside of Atlanta on the map. He was also my brother. These are some of my favorite tracks from him. Help me honor my brother and ensure that his legacy lives on. Most all music was recorded well over 10+ years ago. You will quickly find that he was ahead of his time. Thank you for listening.

Genuine. Flawed. Focused. Phil set out early on a path to become a rapper. His love for music began early, playing with toy microphones, guitars and keyboards while he and his little brother, Joe, pretended to be rock stars or MC Hammer and posse. While in Atlanta, Phil settled on his primary passion and began planting the seeds of a successful underground rap career. Dubbing the name Wize Poet, he went on to become P Floata and founded Money Hungry Records in 2004. He is respected for putting the North, or Nawf-side of Atlanta, primarily Gwinnett County, on the map. Floata toured much of the southeast during his career and worked with many artists who would go on to become mainstream hits.
