G Herbo back in Chicago for concert

Eric Catania

On November 24th, Chicago’s very own G Herbo (or Lil Herb) is back in the city to perform at his own concert. This is a rather big deal for his die-hard fans, as the East-sider is not known for holding frequent shows within the city. His last concert here was over eight months ago, not including appearances at other concerts or being an opener.

G Herbo is known for being an electrifying performer. In attendance at his most recent appearance with Lil Uzi Vert and Spotify on October 20th, Nic Bridgeford ‘18 said “[G] Herb[o] was hands down the best one out there… you know, besides of course, Uzi. Having a Chicago crowd, a lot of people knew his songs, and he knew just how to get everyone pumped up.” Nic also said that he performed some of his most popular songs like Kill S**t ft. Lil Bibby and Rollin, which are songs you will definitely hear on the 24th, and really any other G Herbo concert you attend.

The show is in celebration of his recently released album, Humble Beast. A long supporter of the chicago rapper, Gabriel Regalado ‘19 said that “this project was one of his best. Well, not the best, but probably number two. I love the storytelling and passion you get with this album, and I can go through the whole thing without skipping a song.”

The concert will be at Portage Theater (4050 N Milwaukee Ave) on a Friday, November 24th. The doors open at 6:00pm, and the show is from 6:30-10:30pm. The opener of the show will be YBN Nahmir, but no other artists have been said to be appearing. All ages are allowed, and if you want to buy tickets, you can do so here.
