A supernova is defined as a rare celestial phenomenon involving a star that explodes and becomes extremely luminous in the process. This statement couldn’t be truer for Tommy Nova, a rising superstar MC, songwriter, producer and staple artist for All Blox Music Group. Tommy Nova, born Thomas Peterson Jr., is a 25 year-old native of the Birthplace of Hip Hop, Bronx, NY, where strong musical influences surrounding his everyday life, shaped him to pursue a career as an artist. Upon graduating high school, Nova made the decision to leave the “harsh realities” of home and retreat to the “new music Mecca” of Atlanta to make his dream obtainable. By escaping what can be described as, “an oversaturated market of rappers in NYC,” Tommy Nova was able to link with Brooklyn producer Blue Rocks, who has a list of  production credits including Raekwon Da Chef, Jagged Edge, Killer Mike and Big Duke(Boyz N Da Hood) to name a few. Nova and Blue ultimately went on to create All Blox Music, a high powered production team of artist and producers and hasn’t looked back since. As a result of the collaboration, Tommy Nova now feels he possesses “the tools to be a great artist!”  As he hones in on his writing and producing skills, Nova cites Raekwon Da Chef, Daddy-O of Stetsasonic and Blue Rocks as a source of inspiration and mentorship respectively. Tommy Nova fully grasps the impact that the online community has on new and established artists, and in turn, hired New Media guru, L.T. Dinwiddie a/k/a Gyant, Owner of GyantUnplugged.com and former Senior Editor of Sohh.com to maximize his online presence. This partnership has proven successful in exposing Nova to bloggers worldwide and creating outlets to present his music to the masses. While continuously developing himself as an artist, Tommy Nova has been tirelessly working on a new mixtape titled, Chosen One Part II, and his full-length debut album tentatively titled, Take Me to Hollywood. As he prepares for a lengthy career, Nova dreams of touring, winning Grammys, providing for his family and ultimately making the Bronx proud by “being recognized as one the greatest rappers” of all time.
