It immediately appeared Muse was unprepared after all. Upon arrival, the line moved at glacial pace, security seemed overwhelmed and some presumably well-connected groups skipped the mess by telling the doormen who they knew, or by giving them cash. Especially in comparison to some of the other venues hosting G Herbo on this tour ( Iron City in Birmingham, Alabama or Ritz Theatre in Elizabeth, New Jersey, for example), Muse seemed like an ill fit before the sold-out show even began. The Muse Event Center’s website and Instagram brand the venue as a place for the kinds of straight-laced weddings that hire professional photographers to take pictures of the couple with their parents, pet dogs and floral centerpieces - basically the aesthetic opposite of a typical G Herbo song. In 2017, G Herbo’s album title described himself as a “ Humble Beast” whereas Chief Keef called himself a “ Thot Breaker.”Įven though G Herbo is a little less rowdy than his contemporaries, he certainly does still operate on a higher caliber than the venue that hosted him Sunday night. Unlike Chief Keef and King Louie, who pioneered drill’s hard-hitting, nihilistic depiction of relentless gun violence and ensuing tragedy, G Herbo always came across less abrasive and more writerly than his peers. G Herbo, a star in his Chicago hometown and a steady fixture of the drill subgenre, felt out of place during his brief Sunday night show at the Muse Event Center in Minneapolis.īorn Herbet Randall Wright III, the rapper built his popularity on the South Side of Chicago (“ Chi-Raq” as he called it in one 2014 breakout song with Nicki Minaj) with the help of exceptional songwriting skills and a cool, confident consistency.
