Summary

Poiison is an innovative artist and songwriter from Queens, NY, blending melodic hip-hop, Latin rap, and R&B into a sound uniquely her own. A proud product of New York City, she’s built real momentum—opening for 50 Cent, touring with Shordie Shordie, and completing a 6-city run with Kevin Gates. Her collaborators include Styles P, 2Rare, Fergie Baby, Cash Cobain, and Sha Money XL. Her musical roots began in church with her mother and were shaped by her sister, a professional drummer. By fifth grade, she was already commanding stages—early signs of the presence she carries today. That spark has grown into a dedicated fan base and touring draw, marking her as an artist with conviction and connection. In 2025, she released two standout EPs—Pretty Pain and Love Money Art—showcasing her duality: vulnerable yet bold, melodic yet raw. Inspired by icons like Madonna, Sade, Rick James, Lil Wayne, and more, Poiison channels a wide palette into a sound that lives outside the mold. In 2026, she enters a defining chapter with La Madrina Vol. 2, a project blending originals with standout freestyles over today’s hottest beats — setting the stage for her most impactful year yet.
