G Herbo is ready to switch things up in his career, and it looks like he might be hanging up his mic for good! The rapper has fans popping OFF with reactions after seemingly announcing his retirement from rap and revealing he’s ready to step into a whole new chapter.
Recently, G Herbo hopped on an Instagram Live to chop it up with fans and drop a major life update. Herb told viewers he was ready to hang up his mic and retire from rap. He explained that he personally feels the rap industry is“full of weirdos and snitches,” and he no longer wants to be a part of it. Even though Herbo plans to step away from music, he assured fans they haven’t seen the last of him.
The Chicago rapper said he’s considering getting into acting or even starting his own podcast. Herb also showed love to everyone who has supported his career and helped him run up a bag over the years, even flashing a huge diamond ring on his fingers while giving his supporters their props.
“I love y’all, man. I love everybody whohas been a part of this journey and helpedme become not only the artist, but also the man I am. I appreciate y’all.” G Herbo continued, “Y’all made me a billionaire […] Help me take care of my family.”
From there, the ‘Went Legit’ musician explained that he simply feels like it’s time to move on. Now, Herb wants to put more energy into his family and kids while also focusing on his marriage with his soon-to-be wife, Taina Williams.
Once The Shade Room dropped the clip from G Herbo’s livestream, fans went OFF in the comments. Plenty of Roomies weren’t buying his retirement talk, with several saying they think Herb is capping and probably has more music on the way.
