Unfortunately, due to ongoing legal woes, Polo G hasn’t been able to fulfill a promise him made to fans back in August 2023. Well, that’s until now. After several unforeseen delays, the “Sorrys & Ferraris” rapper’s long-awaited album, Hood Poet, finally has an official release date.

Today (July 30), Polo G took to X (formerly Twitter) to reveal the exciting news. “Hood Poet, August 9th,” he wrote. “The wait finally Over 🖤🖤.”

That information alone would have been sufficient. But after nearly a year of setbacks, Polo treated his followers to a bit more. “Plus, me and Smurk this Friday #weuhshoot,” he wrote.

A fresh collaboration between Lil Durk and Polo G set users online off.

“Finally getting my therapy collab, Polo G X Lil Durk yaayyyy🕺,” wrote one user.

The forthcoming single will mark the project’s forth singles, following “Barely Holdin’ On,” “Distraction,” and “Angels In The Sky.”

According to the promotional graphic, Polo G shared alongside the newly unveiled artwork, Hood Poet will feature guest appearances by GloRilla, Future, Offset, G Herbo, 42 Dugg, Hunxho, The Kid LaRoi, and Fridayy.

According to the tracklist uploaded to Apple Music, Hood Poet has a total of 18 tracks. With a release date formerly locked in, fans have one question—is a tour in the works?

Hood Poet is out on 8/9 via Columbia. Find more information here.

G Herbo & Skilla Baby Get Active On “Shoot”

G Herbo is back once again with a new 2024 release called “Shoot”, featuring the likes of Detroit star, Skilla Baby. Over the last several months, the Chicago, Illinois native has been putting on for his hometown, dropping singles and features left and right. This year, we have seen the “PTSD” artist team up with Hotblock Jmoe, Chief Keef, 21 Lil Harold, Aarne, Kerch Dolla, and more. On the solo front, Herbo has put out “Subject”, a freestyle over BossMan Dlow’s “Get In With Me”, and now “Shoot”. With this prolific release pattern, the hope is that G Herbo delivers a new album/mixtape for 2024.

But while we wait for that, what does this Skilla Baby collaboration have to offer up? Well, to be frank, it’s sadly formulaic. The chorus from the rising talent is pretty forgettable and extremely repetitive. With a title like “Shoot” and previous knowledge of these two’s discographies, you might have a good guess as to what the song is about. While there is nothing wrong with rapping about street violence and stakeouts, the execution feels too one-note. It is cool to see Skilla Baby and Herbo work alongside each other, but the final product is just too lackluster for their standards. Still, give the song a try with the music video link below.

In my city, I’m known to kill the who’s who or who’s who
I up my blick with a smirk, they gon’ run when we shoot
Pull up, fah-fah-fah, whip bangin’ “Who Want Smoke?”
How you ‘posed to beef with me and you a ho? Huh?

21 Savage & G Herbo Make Fun Of Lil Bibby’s Gym Attire

21 Savage and G Herbo aren’t typically known to be Internet comedians, but they can always find the humor in some odd posts that they come across. Moreover, Lil Bibby recently posted a picture of him in the gym with a Cuban chain and a watch on, which the two MCs found to be a pretty comical and cumbersome fit. “N***a ain’t never taking off that cuban [crying-laughing emoji],” the Atlanta rapper commented under his Instagram post, whereas the Chicago spitter had this to say: “Bro f**k is you steady wearing big a** chains & pateks to the gym for? Go to the club or sum [crying-laughing emojis].” “gotta wear da s**t somewhere [red drop emoji],” Bibby responded to the “Neph Nem” artist.

However, this is honestly much better press than what Lil Bibby’s been used to these days, especially if you’re a Juice WRLD fan. For example, fans have repeatedly accused him of selling the late Chicago creative’s catalog, claims which he denied, and of overall mismanaging his legacy as an artist after his tragic passing. When calamities like this strike the hip-hop world, it’s always very difficult to know how to move forward. When they strike musicians as beloved, influential, and successful as Juice, the pressure mounts even higher.

Lil Bibby’s Icy Gym IG Post: See Comments For 21 Savage & G Herbo’s Reactions

Meanwhile, beyond teasing Lil Bibby for his gym fit, 21 Savage is somewhat keeping busy in other rap realm happenings, if only in a one-sided manner. Folks might have already forgotten about the recent beef between him and Soulja Boy, one that Soulja was the main instigator in. While the London-born lyricist simply stepped in to defend his frequent collaborator Metro Boomin, the “Crank Dat” hitmaker is still looking for smoke. Who knows if this spat actually evolves into a rivalry?

Elsewhere, Lil Bibby’s fellow Chicagoan G Herbo is trying to make sure his fans understand to draw a line between online clout and personal lives. He recently requested fans to refrain from asking him for a picture when he’s with his kids, which is a very natural and reasonable idea. Maybe Bibby should’ve set those ground rules when it comes to his own social media posts. If he’s at the gym, no ice comments allowed.

Funny Marco Has Hilarious Reaction To DM He Got From Chris Rock After G Herbo Debacle

After this viral interview with G Herbo, Funny Marco says he got a surprise text. Funny Marco revealed he got a text from Chris Rock on a podcast with Shaq, saying that after his sitdown with the rapper, she got a text from Chris Rock. In the episode, the popular comedian was repeatedly called names and instructed to “shut the f**k up” by the Chicago rapper, who also called him “goofy” several times. He said in the aftermath, “I understand a lot of y’all mad about the interview,” Marco stated. “I was upset while it was going on, but I understand I got a job to do, and one thing about me [is] I respect people on my show. I didn’t want to match [their] energy.”

Chris Rock, in an attempt to relate to and show support to the young comedian, texted Funny Marco. Marco had an extremely funny response to getting a message from Chris Rock, who was still recovering from getting slapped by Will Smith. Overall, the whole situation is a little funnier now that Marco has shared this story.

Funny Marco Sasy Chris Rock Texted Him After G Herbo Interview

Funny Marco tells Shaq, after the big man asked if the incident was real, that the incident was real and that they were at another level of trolling, and he personally didn’t know how to match it. He says afterward Chirs Rock DM’d him, “Keep your head up. It happened to me.” Marco says he replied, “You got slapped…” He says Chris Rock read the message and left it alone. Marco says don’t compare what happened to him when Rock got slapped by Will Smith. The comedian getting trolled in an interview and getting half-threatened isn’t the same as getting actually slapped.

Comedian Chris Rock was famously slapped by Will Smith on live TV at the Academy Awards. After making a GI Jane joke at the expense of Will’s wife, Jada Pinkett-Smiths. Will Smith walked up on the stage and smacked a smiling Chris Rock in the face. It was an unprecedented moment in Oscar’s history. Funny Marco says don’t confuse his viral interview with getting slapped on worldwide television. Overall, Marco’s Chris Rock story is hilarious.
