G Herbo “Strictly 4 My Fans”
Released: November 25th, 2016
Must Listen: Crazy
G Herbo slid through in the middle of month with a promise of a new tape, and on Black Friday he made good on that promise. He went on a small press run and told us that the tape was really Strictly 4 My Fans was “strictly 4 his fans” and that he just wanted to drop something off to let his fan base know he was still working. He hadn’t dropped in a long second before the new tape, but with the tape he was able to thrust himself back into the spotlight.
His raps are on point as always, his street tales are gritty, and he gives us the usual peek into being from Chicago. His lone feature is Lil Bibby, and they create magic as they always do on “Tired.” At only 10 songs there’s no room for errors, and he makes none. It’s a straight through type of listen. Herb is at his best on “Crazy” a Chase Davis produced effort that finds Herb talking about everything that made him crazy. He’s introspective on the track, and tracks like that show how deep Herb can go. Strictly 4 My Fans is just that, and if you’re a Herb fan you’ll love this.
