Polo G Denies Unfollowing Gunna
The rap game continues to distance itself from Gunna, who faced allegations of snitching after copping an Alford plea. Law experts said Gunna didn’t snitch but the streets (and social media) claim otherwise. Lil Baby and Meek Mill unfollowed Gunna online and then, fans believed that Polo G did the same.
The Chicago rapper denied this to be true in a series of Instagram posts. Polo G said that he never unfollowed Gunna because he never followed the YSL rapper to begin with.
“I wasn’t never followin’ him to unfollow up,” Polo G wrote. “Y’all be on my dick.”
Afterward, he stated that he’s not following any trends or watching anyone else’s moves. Polo G explained that he minds his business, which is why he’s never involved with any drama.
“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.”
Polo G added, “I don’t fuck with n***as good or bad simple and plain.”
Nearly a month after his release from prison, Gunna made his first post on Instagram where he revealed he was locked in the studio. At the same time, he called for Young Thug and Yak Gotti to be free.
“N***as acting like they switching to a side,” he wrote. “But it’s only one side . #YsltheLabel #FreeThug&Yak GUNNA BACC!!!!!”
Many labeled Gunna a hypocrite since prosecutors could use his plea to as evidence to convict Young Thug. Gunna’s attorney said that his client would plead the fifth if asked to testify against Young Thug and the rest of the co-defendants in the YSL case.
Polo G Is The Latest Rapper To Unfollow Gunna
There aren’t many rappers standing with Gunna these days but there’s been an influx of artists who’ve distanced themselves from the YSL rapper this weekend, including Polo G.
Some of Gunna’s closest friends and associates have presumably cut him off in the wake of his recent statement calling for Young Thug and Yak Gotti’s freedom. This weekend, fans discovered that Lil Baby hit the unfollow button on his “Drip Too Hard” collaborator.” Then, Meek Mill followed suit.
Polo G appears to have taken similar actions. Internet sleuths pointed out on Monday that the Hall Of Fame rapper no longer followed Gunna following snitching allegations.
Polo G certainly isn’t the first person to unfollow Gunna, nor will he be the last, at this rate. Shortly after Baby unfollowed Gunna, Lil Durk previewed new music where he appeared to diss the “p power” artist. In a new song snippet, Durk references their 7220 collab and alludes to claims that Gunna told on his co-defendants.
Last week, Gunna shared his first post on Instagram following his release on Instagram. Then, he paid homage to the late Lil Keed on Twitter. However, Keed’s brother, Lil GotIt, took issue and began sharing subliminals that seemed to target Gunna. The “Real HoodBabies” rapper started the trend of unfollowing Gunna before Thug’s sister also distanced herself from the DS4EVER artist.
We’ll keep you posted if Gunna responds to the backlash.
Polo G Drops Off “My All” Single With Lyrical Lemonade Music Video: Watch
It’s a big weekend for Polo G. Not only did the 23-year-old make an appearance on Scorey’s Help Is On The Way album, but he’s also showing out on a single of his own. The song, titled, “My All,” arrived on Friday (December 9) and was accompanied by an awesome Lyrical Lemonade music video.
As Revolt notes, the track boasts production from both Southside and CuBeatz. As Cole Bennett directs in his unique style, the Chicago rapper chiefly gets his bars off for the camera.
“I done spent two-thirty on a brand-new Richard Mille / I been turnt up, I’m the youngest and the richest in my city,” Polo quickly flexes on his first verse.
He continues, “All on Twitter on my d*ck because that bitch can’t get up with mе / This rapper lifestyle lit, callеd it a quits and now she shitty, uh.”
Other songs to arrive from the Hall of Fame hitmaker this year include “Bag Talk” and “Distraction.” Additionally, he appears on Nardo Wick’s “G Nikes,” alongside Manifest and Almighty Jay on “Bottle Girls,” and with PGF Nuk on “Waddup.”
While the singles are satisfying fans (for now), they’re undeniably hungry for a new album. Luckily, The Fader reports that we can expect one in 2023. Details about the forthcoming project remain sparse at this time, but we do know several of his recent arrivals will appear on the tracklist.
Stream Polo G’s “My All” on Spotify or Apple Music below. Afterward, let us know what your thoughts on the new single are in the comments.
Quotable Lyrics:
No, I swear these hoes, you can’t trust ’em
Baby, I don’t want relations, I’m just tryna f*ck some
I’m just tryna drop a hit and make the club jump
But I hate that I was too deep in so young
Polo G Reminisces About Him Giving ‘My All’ On His Highly-Anticipated New Song
After giving fans a preview earlier this year, Polo G has dropped his anticipated new song, “My All.” By the time the catchy beat drops, it compliments the rhymes nicely. “You need to desperately wake up,” he notes on the chorus. “When it was time to dance, could always count on you to be my plus one.” Struggling with trust issues and women, Polo G decides he just wants to live in the moment as the melody fades out.
“I hate that I was too deep in so young,” Polo G ponders on the final lyric.
His new track follows his previously-released singles “Bag Talk” and “Distraction” from this year. The rapper already has his sights on 2023, though, as all three songs will be included on his forthcoming album. Despite not having an official release date or title out yet, fans should still definitely keep an eye (and an ear) out for what the Chicago performer has planned next.
“I know I’m registering with people and helping them get through their sh*t,” Polo told Complex last summer, speaking to the motivational aspects of his music. “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 “My All” is out now. Listen to it above.

To commemorate the beginning of this most recent charitable initiative assisting single moms, they also wore the official “Single Moms Are The Real Superheroes” shirts.

DDG’s New ‘9 Lives’ Video Revisits His Past Alongside Polo G And NLE Choppa
DDG is celebrating the arrival of It’s Not Me It’s You on Friday (September 30) by recounting his struggle to get here. The Michigan-bred rapper simultaneously dropped the music video for “9 Lives,” the project’s opening track, featuring NLE Choppa And Polo G.
Directed by Michael Daniel, the four-minute visual finds DDG revisiting his old neighborhood, with a young boy presumably serving as a younger DDG — filling up a pot with water in the kitchen, boiling it on the stove to use for a bath. “But for my family, that’s alright, I’m doing anything,” present-day DDG raps, watching the boy boxing outside while his parents argue about bills inside.
NLE performs his verse from a church pew, mentioning a Percocet problem in 2019, and Polo G provides his insight from the block at night.
It’s Not Me It’s You follows the footsteps of DDG’s Epic Records debut album Valedictorian from November 2019. In between, DDG was named to the 2021 XXL Freshman Class last June and dropped his Die 4 Respect mixtape.
DDG has previously shared It’s Not Me It’s You singles “If I Want You” with real-life girlfriend Halle Bailey including a steamy music video, “Stay In My Circle,” “Storyteller,” and “Elon Musk” featuring Gunna. The project’s full tracklist was revealed last week. Check it below.

DDG’s ‘It’s Not Me It’s You’ Tracklist Features Gunna, Polo G, Kevin Gates And More
DDG has been actively honing his boxing skills in the squared circle, going so far as to compare himself to Floyd Mayweather, and enjoying a life of love with his girlfriend Halle Bailey, one half of the pop duo Chloe x Halle. The 24-year-old is now looking to bring the hits and romance musically next Friday (September 30) as he gears up for his next project titled It’s Not Me It’s You. The rapper has assembled quite a cast of features to get the job done.
The 12-track effort will include appearances from Gunna, Polo G, Kevin Gates, NLE Choppa, and Babyface Ray. The Gunna-assisted “Elon Musk” has already been shared with the world, in addition to “If I Want You,” “Stay In My Circle,” and “Storyteller.” Thus, fans will be treated to eight completely new tracks next week. “If I Want You” was especially notable as the video featured DDG getting steamy with his lady, Halle Bailey.
As for 2022, DDG also appeared on Blueface’s “Meat This,” Baby Rich’s “Roll Tide,” and “Worth It” from Traetwothree’s Out The District. With momentum heading into It’s Not Me It’s You, and no shortage of confidence, time will tell if the tracks hit like the Mayweather jabs DDG aspires to possess.
