Taurus Tremani Bartlett, better known by his stage name Polo G, is an American rapper, singer-songwriter, and record executive who gained initial recognition in 2018 after releasing the single “Finer Things.”

Bartlett achieved mainstream success in 2019 with his single “Pop Out” (featuring Lil Tjay). The song peaked at the #11 spot on the Billboard Hot 100.

Taurus Tremani Bartlett was born on January 6, 1999, in Chicago, Illinois, to Stacia Mac. Not much is known about his father, although the rapper was raised by both parents.

Bartlett was drawn to gang life at the age of 15. He split his time between selling fentanyl and practicing rapping.

At the age of 17, Polo G was convicted of illegal drug possession and slapped with his first custodial sentence. He would later serve two more jail terms, with the most recent one being from October 2017 to February 2018.

During his latest incarceration, some of Polo G’s inmates challenged him to focus on music. It’s at this point that the rapper began taking music seriously. He released a mixtape titled Neva Cared and went on to release his first officially recorded song to YouTube, titled ‘ODA.’

In 2018, Polo G created a SoundCloud account and released the song ‘Gang With Me’ to the platform. The song was an instant hit, garnering millions of plays within a few months of its release. Later in the year, Polo G released the track ‘Finer Things.’ The song propelled him further onto the limelight.

But it was the single ‘Pop Out’ featuring Lil Tjay that truly positioned Polo as one of the most promising rappers of his generation. Released in early 2019, ‘Pop Out’ peaked at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100. The music video to the song racked up more than 200 million YouTube views.

Following the success of ‘Pop Out,’ Polo G went on to sign a recording contract with Columbia Records. His debut album eventually came on June 7, 2019. The album was a commercial success, peaking at number 6 on the US Billboard 200.

Polo has since followed up with one more studio album, titled The Goat (2020). He’s currently working on his third album, Hall of Fame, whose release is due to be announced. However, the rapper has continued releasing singles over the years, including the track Go Stupid (released with rappers NLE Choppa and Stunna 4 Vegas).

In September 2020, Polo G founded his own record label known as ODA Records. ODA, which stands for ‘Only Dreamers Achieve’ is a joint venture between Polo and Columbia Records.

Polo G has been in the music industry for a considerably short duration. But he’s already giving many rappers a run for their money, quite literally.

As of 2023, Polo had a net worth of $4 million. He has earned nearly his entire wealth from the music industry.
