Our constant need to snap photos is at the heart of Yo Gottis new single Pose. The track, which features Lil Uzi Vert, features the sound of a camera shutter as the rapper describes a love-hate relationship with posing for pictures in his newfound fame.
On the terse, bass-driven track, Yo Gotti intones, Dope boy, Im on Polaroid/ Photos make me paranoid/ Bitch open up her camera phone/ This that shit I be tryna avoid/ Bitch, I aint tryna make no blog with you.
Yo Gottis last album, I Still Am, dropped in 2017. Lil Uzi Verts most recent album, Luv Is Rage 2, was released the same year. Yo Gotti has since unveiled several tracks, including Put a Date on It, which featured Lil Baby and was said to appear on the rappers next album Trapped.
Trapped has yet to get an official release date (and Yo Gotti has been teasing it since last year), but the rapper told Billboard he feels good about the new music. I think this album is going to be one of my classic albums ever, he said. I was just telling somebody on my management team that right now I feel more charged than ever. This is how deep the hunger is. I dont know if its just the hustler nature in me or what, but I cant even explain this shit.
