He utilizes music as an outlet to constructively verbalize the perils he and others faced in impoverished communities focusing on real-life struggles like racial inequality, violence, and mental health, while maintaining a deep connection to his community by giving back to Chicago youth with his AAU team. Polo hosted a special benefit concert All Star Weekend called “Polo G & Friends,” which was dedicated to Chicago kids fighting depression and honored the late Juice WRLD.

Polo made his TV performance debut on the Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon and appeared on NPR’s Tiny Desk series. Now, Polo G launched his own label, ODA, in partnership with Columbia Records. “The name of my label is ODA, Only Dreamers Achieve Records, because in our communities we are told what we CAN’T be. I want to send the message that we control our futures and encourage artists to dream big,” stated Polo. His authentic message, coupled with the buzz he’s accumulated in a short time, positions him as one of the top artists to watch this year while he helps craft the next crop of talent to break.
