One of the reasons why 50 Cent has managed to keep his relevance is his ability to keep his ear to the streets and youth culture. Over the years, Fif has shown love to the younger cats before they've reached mainstream success such as Kendrick Lamar, ScHoolboy Q, Chief Keef and more. The rapper recently took to Instagram to show love to one of the hottest rappers to come out of Chicago in recent times.
50 Cent praised G Herbo on Instagram yesterday (Oct. 14th). Fif shared a photo of Herbo to let the "Swervo" rapper that he's watching his moves.
"don’t think l don’t see you on the come up lm not missing a beat stay focused." He said.
G Herbo received the message loud and clear and showed Fif his appreciation for the love.
"I love you 4 This! You always been a real n***a doe," Herbo wrote in the comments.
Herbo's been on a serious grind throughout the past year. In July, the rapper released his sophomore album, Swervo which arrived less than a year from his debut album, Humble Beast. The rapper is also set to hit the road tomorrow (Oct. 16th) for the "Swervo" tour with Southside and Queen Key. The tour kicks off in Detroit before concluding in Cleveland, IL on November 24th.
Keep your eyes peeled for more new music from Herbo.
