1) P.O.S (born Stefon Alexander) is an alternative hip-hop musician from Minnesota. He is a also a member of the alternative rap collective Doomtree. His rapping style is heavily influenced by punk bands such as Kid Dynamite, Black Flag and Fugazi.
Alexander began playing punk rock in middle school. He started rapping in his mid-teens, and has combined his love of the genres to create himself a category. In 2004, the midwest hip hop label Rhymesayers Entertainment re-released his debut, Ipecac Neat and his sophomore release, Audition, in 2006. 2009 brings us Never Better, the newest album from P.O.S, out on Rhymesayers Entertainment.
P.O.S is an original artist, combining heartfelt and meaningful lyrics with powerful melodies on various instruments. P.O.S is also a member of Doomtree and Building Better Bombs and Cadillac Blindside.
P.O.S can stand for a various amount of acronyms. Pissed Off Stef, Promise of Stress, Promise of Skill, Piece of Shit, and Product of Society are all common names he cites. He states that the name holds a new meaning with every day.
2) P.O.S. is also the name used by Paavo Olavi Siljamäki, member of Above & Beyond in his solo releases.
Paavo spends most of his waking hours with a computer in front of him, either surfing the net or, more usually, making music. One Autumn night last year he was awake and doodling, remembering the summer parties he'd enjoyed in the UK and, at home in Finland. Struck by a fit of inspiration he put on his headphones, plugged them into his G4 Powerbook and worked through the night on a track which ended up as his first debut single. "Remember (Summer Sun)" was released on an EP with "Amnesiac". Both proved popular in clubland, but it is "Remember (Summer Sun) that has achieved anthem status, containing as it does "one of the most gorgeous chord changes ever" according to Tony.
The second P.O.S single "Gravity" caused a similar storm, if not bigger and ended up on Tiesto's acclaimed ISOS compilation amongst others.
Paavo is also a member of Above & Beyond, OceanLab, Aalto, Dirt Devils, Free State and Tranquility Base etc.

P.O.S. Lyrics
I'm trying not to slip, been trying not to lose footing
Loose land keeps the pressure on my kicks
But when I fall, I tend to land like a ton of bricks
Stand like a man made of concrete and sediment like
Fuck your skin, nobody needs it theres, bones and muscles and blood
What's realer than fat and tendons?
It's raw, no soft tissue to draw your eyes to it
So far flesh ain't the truest at all, let's rip into it
We're all sick of them missed shots
Passed over like the last man picked, no team, so pissed off
And that's not honesty, that's just soft curves got your world flipped
Got you makin' mixtapes for girls and that's the skin again
Let's blame the skin again
Stretching itself so fluidly over these awkward ligaments
And I didn't shave today, I prolly won't tomorrow and it's safe to say
I'm never gonna shed this extra, yeah
So fuck it, back to the wall
Crush it, laugh at 'em all
Hush, let 'em try to find the beauty in your face
Yeah, something more than a song
Hatin'? Aw come on
Dust, let 'em try to find the beauty in the bassline
Aw, but then them words don't change
We won't sing with what will fade away
Yeah, we do our own damn thing
We don't blink at what tomorrow might bring at all
Aw, but then them words don't change
We won't sing with what will fade away
Yeah, we do our own damn thing
We don't blink at what tomorrow might bring at all
In us we trust, no rush for bucks
No sweat, just enough, them words from love, no hits
I let the track stand like how it was written is how it hit me
Or road cycle kids with the grip to skid fixies
A rouge wild kid with a stroll that let it roll, like whatever
They kick that gingivitis, them rappers got the itis
Catch me bumpin' Isis in a crisis
Instead of watchin' y'all count and lead sheep at the same time
What's the science of that?
I know the... is sweet, but where the movement at?
We in that coma capital
Spotless home team with hands steadily purexed, but never quite clean
Bloody as hell rarely will I ever care for that
I don't know, man
Me and Joe like the real shit
So fuck it, back to the wall
Crush it, laugh at 'em all
Hush, let 'em try to find the beauty in your face
Yeah, something more than a song
Hatin'? Aw come on
Dust, let 'em try to find the beauty in the bassline
Aw, but then them words don't change
We won't sing with what will fade away
Yeah, we do our own damn thing
We don't blink at what tomorrow might bring at all
So fuck it, back to the wall
Crush it, laugh at 'em all
Hush, let 'em try to find the beauty in your face
Yeah, something more than a song
Hatin'? Aw come on
Dust, let 'em try to find the beauty in the bassline
Aw, but then them words don't change
We won't sing with what will fade away
Yeah, we do our own damn thing
We don't blink at what tomorrow might bring at all

This song is saving my life today.

Can't put my finger on it exactly, but the tranquility in the melodies together with that snare roll in the chorus is so, so intense. After all these years it's still the one song that brings a feeling of catharsis, to me at least! If you're reading this, blessed day to you! <3
