Polo Perks is a 30 year old rapper from New York notable for formerly being a member of the Surf Gang in addition to the 13 EPs & 3 mixtapes of his own that he has built up for himself since 2018 already. He just linked up with AyooLii & Feardorian for the collaborative effort A Dog’s Chance this summer becoming the most acclaimed body of work in the lowend subgenre thus far, returning 6 months later to drop off his 14th EP hopefully ahead of an upcoming full-length debut studio album & only 48 hours away from the current 2-time ROH World Champion Chris Jericho’s defense against the inaugural WWE Women’s Champion Chelsea Green’s husband in former DDT普遍的な王座, GCW World Champion, ECW World Television Champion, HoG Heavyweight Champion, TNA Digital Media Champion, NWA World’s Heavyweight Champion, WWE Intercontinental Champion, WWE United States Champion & 2-time WWE tag team champion Matt Cardona.
“Sir Loogie Noise” starts by jumping over a distorted, sample-driven lowend instrumental from Feardorian talking about being in his head and showing him the money if you want him to come to your party whereas “Elvis Presley is Dead as Fuck” dabbles with digicore flexing that he’s too turnt at the moment. “Skramz” goes for a hazier lowend vibe except that Polo’s vocals are mixed too low for my tastes & finally, “Stay Gold” featuring Reno ends with both of them dropping braggadocio over a flute-based beat.
What has always made Polo stand out for me is that he’s constantly trying new sounds from plugg to cloud rap, sample drill or emo rap & American Pie comes off A Dog’s Chance by continuing to do that. The lowend production from that previous collab album makes its way over here in addition to pulling further inspiration from the jerk, midwest emo & emo rap scenes as he offers a take on all those styles that’s more exciting than what other artists have been recently doing for roughly 7 & a half minutes.
Score: 3.5/5
