Rapper G Herbo was arrested and booked for misdemeanor unlawful use of a weapon in public. The recent arrest occurred near North Wabash Avenue and East Ontario Street, familiar locations often referenced in G Herbo’s songs.
While the Chicago-based rapper was able to post bond, his upcoming court appearance could impact his career as he may face further consequences depending on the outcome of the court proceedings.
At this time, no additional charges or jail time have been announced.
Prior to his arrest, G Herbo had taken to Instagram to announce the shooting of his latest music video, “Real Spills.”
It is important to note that G Herbo’s recent legal troubles should not overshadow his positive work. The rapper recently established a registered 501c3 nonprofit organization called Swervin Through Stress.
This organization aims to support Black individuals facing mental health challenges, motivated by G Herbo’s personal experiences. His commitment to addressing important social issues remains evident despite his current legal situation.
G Herbo is not the only rapper facing legal consequences regarding illegally possessing a firearm. Boosie, another prominent artist, was recently arrested on gun charges during a traffic stop in San Diego while filming a music video.
