TOP 3 SONGS

3. CAN’T SLEEP

In “Can’t Sleep,” G Herbo raps about gunfights, drug abuse, his dead friends, his fake friends, and having withdrawals (Mind you, this man is only 25 years old).

Herbo’s erratic rap flows on “Can’t Sleep” make the song feel authentic as hell. (Hell, when I’m disheveled, I sound erratic, too)

2. SUMMER IS CANCELLED

“Summer Is Cancelled” is an ideal opening track for this album.

“Summer Is Cancelled” is driven by a soulful beat by Harry Fraud that packs a significant punch. G Herbo, over this compelling beat, raps about being a real killer, putting fake killers to shame, touching paper, and being a role model for dudes who are trying to make it out of the hood.

I love how intensely Herbo delivers his bars in “Summer Is Cancelled.” As a matter of fact, I can see a pool of sweat pouring down his head while he was laying down his verses on the song.

1. HUNNIT BANDS

I’m not sure G Herbo has any songs in the past that I would consider club bangers. That said, “Hunnit Bands” feels like a legit club banger to me.

“Hunnit Bands” boasts this booming, slick beat that I f**k with a lot. Against this backdrop, G Herbo delivers a straightforward yet catchy hook, as well as verses that make him sound like the most obnoxious and disrespectful n***a on this planet. In fact, it sounds like Herbo is arguing with a group of rowdy n***as in a VIP section across from him on the song.

OVERALL RATING

(C-)

If you consider your favorite rapper gangsta, G Herbo is gangsta with cheese in the middle. Seriously, in Sessions, the Chicago native talks about deep stuff such as making it out of the hood, losing friends, ducking cops, and coming out victorious in gunfights. On the real, not a single lyric Herbo delivers in the album feels phony, which I find both impressive and sad.

G-Herbo’s signature style is to sound like he’s on a high-speed chase with whatever beat he chooses to rap over. In the case of Sessions, the erratic flows employed by Herbo align with the album’s overall narrative. With the album primarily addressing hood PTSD, it seems fitting that Herbo approaches songs sounding like a paranoid individual who isn’t entirely composed.

Each beat on Sessions exudes a captivating blend of soulfulness and trillness that demands attention. Moreover, every beat on the album seamlessly complements Herbo’s erratic rapping style, much like how every incriminating glove in America likely fits Herbo’s hands with precision.

G Herbo proves to be a captivating rapper, skillfully painting vivid pictures of the harrowing experiences from his young life. His ability to embrace his bipolar side adds a layer of complexity, evoking a mix of unease, perplexity, and entertainment as you delve into his music.
