Polo G Explains Why He Shut Down Rumors He Unfollowed Gunna

by

Boosie Badazz predicted that Meek Mill’s career would be even bigger after his release from prison. However, this theory doesn’t necessarily apply to all rappers in hip-hop. Gunna, specifically, faced much scrutiny in recent months since his release from prison. The rapper came home just before the holidays but there weren’t many individuals that embraced him, especially after court footage emerged online. A clip of Gunna copping his Alford Plea spread like wildfire and did immediate damage to his career. 

Ultimately, fans left rat emojis under his comments when Gunna returned to Instagram. Other members of the YSL camp felt as though he was disloyal to Young Thug. However, it was his many peers in hip-hop that pushed him away. Lil Baby and Meek Mill, who both have strong relationships with Thug and Gunna, unfollowed the DS4EVER rapper on Instagram, leading plenty of other rappers to follow. However, Polo G somehow got tied into the controversy, even though he didn’t follow Gunna to begin with.

Polo G Isn’t Concerned About Gunna’s Snitching Rumors

After people accused Polo G of unfollowing Gunna around the same time as Lil Baby and Meek Mill, the rapper made it clear that he doesn’t follow trends or what any other person is doing. This week, he sat down with the Full Send Podcast where he explained that why he addressed the rumors in the first place. “I don’t feel no type of way, for real. It was just me seeing a specific headline, like, you worded it in a way, like I’m trend following,” he said. “That’s not me. That’s the only reason why I addressed the situation.”

Overall, he said that he doesn’t want to get into the messy drama in the rap game, anyways. “Yeah, I don’t get into none of that, man. I’m chillin’,” he explained. Though it seems unlikely that Polo and Gunna will work on music together in the future, the Chicago rapper evidently isn’t concerned with what the “pushin p” rapper has going on in his life. Check out the clip below and sound off with your thoughts in the comments. Do you think Gunna deserves the backlash he’s facing?

Polo G & Future Leave Their Mark On “No Time Wasted” Single

by

All through 2022, Polo G proved himself with a series of solo singles and collaborative efforts. He began the year with an appearance on PGF Nuk’s “Waddup.” Following that was his own “Distraction” and later, “Bag Talk.” Other efforts to come from the Chicago rapper include “My All” and “G Nikes” with Nardo Wick.

The first weeks of 2023 found the lyricist keeping a low profile. Mid-way through February, though, he’s ready to make his mark. On Friday (February 17), the 24-year-old finally unleashed his first-ever joint single with Future, “No Time Wasted.” As REVOLT notes, the impressive effort is likely to appear on Polo’s upcoming LP with Southside.

The younger artist carries on the chorus, singing, “Uh, I know you waitin’ / Gettin’ fed up, you runnin’ out of patience / Just keep your head up, I told you we would make it / Can’t give my meds up, I see too many faces.” Like many of his other releases, Polo’s new single finds him reflecting on life in the streets while inspiring listeners with uplifting bars.

For his part, Future chiefly flaunts the beautiful women in his life and the luxuries he’s able to afford. “Run in a Porsche with some horses like I’m racin’ / Bitch so bad look photoshopped when she naked,” the Atlanta native rhymes.

At this time, it remains unclear when Polo G and Southside’s joint LP will drop. However, we do know that the duo is reportedly currently putting the finishing touches on the highly anticipated release. It will follow the former’s third studio release, Hall of Fame, which earned him a No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart.

Stream Polo G and Future’s first collaboration, “No Time Wasted,” on Spotify or Apple Music below. Afterward, tell us your thoughts on the joint track in the comments. Finally, check HNHH later this weekend for more release recommendations on our Fire Emoji playlist.

Quotable Lyrics:

Run in a Porsche with some horses like I’m racin’
Bitch so bad look photoshopped when she naked
Made it out the jungle where they scorchin’ and blazin’
My dog get money and I get money, it’s contagious

Polo G And Future Share Their Motivational New Song, ‘No Time Wasted’

by

Hot off of Future’s One Big Party tour, Polo G has teamed up with his fellow rap star for a powerful new collab. On “No Time Wasted,” Polo G encourages those around him not to give up.

Over a triumphant beat produced by Southside, Polo reminds us where he came from and that he still sees himself becoming even more monumental.

“I know you waitin’ / Getting fed up, you runnin’ out of patience / Just keep your head up, I told you we would make it,” sings Polo on the song’s chorus.

Future delivers the song’s second verse, where, more than 10 years in the game, he still is grateful for how far he’s come, and the fact that he is able to get his loved ones whatever they desire.

“Went from a trapper to livin’ like a popstar / I done got so rich, I’m feedin’ my lil’ kids caviar / My b*tch don’t want for sh*t, she get whatever she want / My shooter walk you down, stand over you, make sure it’s done.”

Polo previously teased the song in an Instagram post, where he prompted his followers to guess who would feature on the track. Also in the post, he revealed that fans can expect an “album soon.”

Polo G Announces New Single With Future & Southside

by

Polo G’s follow-up to 2021’s Hall Of Fame could be coming soon. The rapper’s unveiled a handful of singles over the past few months but it seems like those intended to build up the anticipation for his major collab that’s on the way. This week, the rapper announced his upcoming single, “No Time Wasted” ft. Future and produced by Southside, due out on Feb. 17th.

Just a day before announcing the single, he shared a snippet online while asking fans to guess the feature. “this me and bro 1st time droppin one,” he wrote before confirming that he has a new album coming soon. “New single otw & album soon.” The teaser showcased Southside’s massive production style while Polo provided melody-filled motivational bars. “I know you waitin’/ Gettin’ fed up, you runnin’ out of patience/ Just keep yo head up, I told you we would make it,” Polo raps in the snippet. After revealing the feature, it’s hard not to hear Future’s influence on Polo G, especially when paired with Southside’s production.

Southside and Polo G have worked closely with one another since last summer, so “No Time Wasted” likely won’t be the last we hear from them. Prior to the release of “Distraction,” produced by Southside and Cubeatz, he revealed that the two were locked in during an interview with W Magazine. It seems that a release date could come after the single drops. 

“Distraction” marked the first single from his upcoming album. However, Polo G hasn’t unveiled any details surrounding the project. He dished out a few singles throughout 2022 to warm fans up until his follow-up to Hall Of Fame. He unveiled “Bag Talk” in late October, then released “My All” in December.

The song’s release couldn’t come at a better time as Future is fresh off of a huge weekend at the Grammys. The Atlanta rapper scored his second Grammy of his career – and first as a main artist – for “WAIT FOR U” in the Best Melodic Rap Performance category. Future previously scored a Grammy for his contributions to Jay Rock’s “King’s Dead” alongside James Blake and Kendrick Lamar. Hopefully, “No Time Wasted” isn’t the last collaboration we hear from Future and Polo G. Check the snippet out below.

Chicago slang spitter Polo G has taken to show off his latest piece in his bling collection; an iced-out medallion equipped with a working iPhone.

G copped this one-of-a-kind chain from Atlanta jeweler, Icebox.

“I’m here with Polo G right now and we’re showing you the world’s first chain with a screen on it,” an Icebox employee said in the video showing off the chain. Polo said, “Yeah man, hardest chain in the fucking game right now. Shout-out to Icebox on gang!”

Icebox says the six-figure bling weighs over a pound and is made up of more than 90 karats of VS diamonds.

Polo G might have just started a new trend when it comes to styling jewelry. The Chicago rapper took to social media recently to share that he turned his chain into an “ice box.” Polo, whose real name is Taurus Tremani Bartlett, is no stranger to loving the finer things in life. At this point, who doesn’t expect every rapper to sport an icy chain?

The diamond-encrusted chain dripped on his next with what appeared to be a holder for a mobile device. It’s unclear how much the “Martin and Gina” rapper paid for the piece, but you can imagine it probably wasn’t cheap.

When it comes to music, the rapper has kept himself busy. Recently, Polo dropped his latest song, “My All,” which was released this past December. His latest song follows his previously-released tracks from 2022, like “Bag Talk” and “Distraction.” Presumably, these tracks will show up on the rapper’s forthcoming album.

While there has been no word on a title or official release date, fans should expect to hear something soon, hopefully.

“I know I’m registering with people and helping them get through their sh*t,” Polo told Complex last summer. “It’s a good feeling because I get those messages, like, ‘Oh, you got me through a rough time.’ I really know how that be.”

Polo G’s laced the latest in Apple technology with diamonds for his latest jewelry purchase.

The Chicago rapper took to Instagram where he revealed that he purchased an iPhone chain. Polo revealed an iced-out chain that carries an iPhone in the middle of the pendant.

“Rest up B-Dawggy He ain’t D!e in vain…Forever gat yo name Lit,” he captioned the post. Meanwhile, Ice Box revealed that the chain marked the first iPhone chain in the world. In a clip shared on their official IG page, the chain shows a video of Polo G performing as it hangs on the rapper’s chain.

Polo G’s jewelry collection just got significantly better with his latest chain. The rapper previously appeared on GQ’s On The Rocks. During the episode, Polo revealed his GOAT chain, which includes a detachable goat head covered in small round diamonds. Then, there’s the Capalot pendant made from white gold and covered in diamonds. This chain, in particular, fetches for $40K. Additionally, he spent $115K for his 1300 chain. On top of that, he also owns several fine timepieces. Polo G’s jewelry collection is impressive.

Though Polo G’s remained lowkey in recent times, he found himself in some controversy recently. Fans believed that he unfollowed Gunna shortly after Lil Baby and Meek Mill, who many believe distanced themselves from the “pushin p” rapper due to his Alford Plea. Polo later denied this was true, adding that he never followed Gunna to begin with.

“I don’t follow up behind nobody, I make my own decisions as a man and I do a good job at mindin my business,” he wrote. “U don’t see me in shit for a reason.”
