Willy Northpole is a rapper from Chicago who started writing and rapping around age 15. In 2011, he put out a mixtape called 'Northwest Airlines' that got some attention.
His song '1 Sidechick' became a viral hit, though its explicit lyrics about infidelity drew criticism along with fans. Other tracks like 'Game Diss' and 'The Set Up' followed a similar pattern of raw, personal storytelling.
Northpole's music often dealt with relationships and personal struggles, which sometimes spilled over into public controversies about his lyrics and personal life. He worked with B.O.B. on 'Hood Dreamer' and kept putting out music that felt direct and unfiltered.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
