G Herbo served up a fiery sixteen as the next XXL Freshman rep to dish out a freestyle. In the nearly three-minute clip, the rapper (formerly known as Lil Herb) elaborates on the circumstances he grew up in on the slums of East Chicago.
“Roaches, rats in apartments, mama smoking, baby starving/ Pistols loading, discharging, I grew up in all it,” he rhymes off top. “Ghetto, hell, slums, bottom, what you wanna call it?/ Nobody role models, everybody alcoholics.”
