Beginning
The group was founded by Yogi B in 1990. The original members of Poetic Ammo were Yogi B and Anand, and they were formerly known as DEFX which featured ana and amo. Poetic Ammo became popular amongst local clubs and pubs such as Piccadilly, Canton City, Party Box and others in Petaling Jaya. The first singles they released with Kenny Music (Kenny Remy Martin) were "Run" and "Only You", released under Positive Tone.
Anand later left DEFX and set up another underground rap group with Amoo Tha (also known as Jason), and they called themselves THA 2.O, with a music style of hardcore rap and g-funk. Anand was the vocalist and Jason was the turntablist in the band. Their shows were arranged by Siva Saga Entertainment. Anand left the group after he married Sherina, and Jason continued solo, but his solo album was never released due to censorship issues.

Till the seed of the fire flicker and glow;
And then I must scrub and bake and sweep
Till the stars are beginning to blink and peep;
And the young lie long and dream in their bed....”

In the beginning it was all God’s icebox
and everyone ate raw fish or animals
and there was no fire at night to dance to,
no fire at day to cook by.”
