It may feel as if Chicago’s own Polo G just hopped on to the scene not too long ago, but he’s already moving on to his second album. This Friday, the Chicago artist released his latest project, The Goat, with Columbia Records.
“My first project was [fans] getting to know who I was, like what I got to offer as the artist. But now it’s chapter two of that. I got even more to offer — just showing my growth as an artist and how I can switch it up,” he told reporters.
The new title plays on his zodiac sign. Sharing the Capricorn sign with LeBron James, Muhammad Ali and Martin Luther King Jr., Polo G named his album after the animal that represents his sign, a goat.
“I guess the animal that represents a Capricorn. There’s a double meaning behind that because a lot of famous people are Capricorns: LeBron James, Muhammad Ali, Martin Luther King, Tiger Woods and Denzel Washington. They are all considerably some of the greatest working professionals, so I feel like it’s just me to be great,” he said.
For his new album, he brings together NLE Choppa, Stunna 4 Vegas and BJ The Chicago Kid. Behind the boards, DJ Mustard and Mike WiLL Made-It offer production. Check out the full album above.
