Frankie is...........an artist who wants to.........."nip it in the bud at the youth". What that means is, he's an eclectic crusader. Born in Miami Gardens, he attended a magnet program for acting as a youth, learning to love music from his father, a rapper, and his mother, a singer. He remembers trying to make his first guitar out of a wooden door, then slinging enough cookies and cream Hershey's bars at school, to buy his first real guitar. Performing at the legendary Miami venue, Churchill's, Frankie learned to start making some money with his wrd frndz, and now is full time paying his bills with music, supporting other artists in the studio, and working with his fiancée, Simone, on their nonprofit, Context of a Generation, providing a platform for other local artists in the area. Follow him on IG, @frankiemidnight_, check out his linktree for a link to his new album, Wrd Frndz, and listen to the full episode to catch Frankie spitting some serious truth.
