There seems to be a huge divide between people who say Polo G is next up and a superstar, and people who barely have heard of Polo G and never hear his music out. I dunno if it’s a regional thing, but there doesn’t seem to be an in between
What does his numbers say what nikka you know that’s not a superstar got #1 records and doing 175 this day and age

What does his numbers say

Bro he a star and I fukk w/ him. He isn’t in my top 5-10 most played but I see what he’s doin.

But I’ve heard multiple people say they’ve barely heard of him besides Pop Out and Rapstar. I’m sayin the disconnect is interesting. I live in Atlanta which is part of why I said it might be regional

I don’t really listen to him either but people saying they’ve barely heard him doesn’t mean anything they obviously out the loop ..

This an example of someone literally in the industry who has noticed it too


Even outside of that, couldn’t you argue that if somebody is really a ‘superstar’ then even those who are ‘out of the loop’ would be hearing them regularly? White girls who don’t listen to hip-hop know who da baby is

It’s an age thing.

Migos represents millennials.

Polo G represents Gen Z.

Gen Z is all reaching late teens and adulthood now and are in the process of taking over the game.

How was people going to hear it?

I don't listen to radio and I ain't in high school so how would we know?

I know what's hit because I just the Rap Caviar Playlist out weekly but otherwise I don't be knowing either :manny:

Everyone uses airpods and be on their phones 24-7.

It ain't like back in the day when nikkas had cds and we were in high school and that's all we talked about.

We grown now but my nephew is 18 and he be putting me on everything.

How is Polo G so popular? :what:
Have listened to him and breh got boring production and a basic ass flow.
I hate Lil Baby but I understand fully why he's on a star run.
