Sensational hip hop artists G Herbo, Southside, and Queen Key are bringing their signature sounds to the Paradise Rock Club!
G Herbo (birth name Herbert Wright III) was born in Chicago in 1995 and is a rapper and songwriter. While his musical style can be broadly classified as hip hop, it's best described as a blend of gangsta rap (a sub genre of hip hop music - pioneered in the mid-1980s by rappers such as Schoolly D and Ice-T, and was popularized in the later part of the 1980s by groups like N.W.A - with themes and lyrics that generally emphasize the criminal gang lifestyle), Midwest hip hop (a regional genre of hip hop music - performed by artists from the Midwestern United States - that, in contrast with its East Coast, West Coast and Southern counterparts, has very few constants in style or production) and drill (a style of trap music that originated in the South Side of Chicago in the early 2010s and is defined by its dark, grim, violent, nihilistic lyrical content and ominous trap influenced beats). He cites Jadakiss, Young Jeezy, Gucci Mane, Yo Gotti, Chief Keef, and Lil Wayne as his main influences. He’s had a stellar career with 2 studio albums, 4 mix tapes, 2 extended plays, and 17 singles.
