The “Went Legit” rapper thought somebody was “playing on the phone” when Minaj’s team called his manager.
G Herbo says he earned around half a million dollars after collaborating with Nicki Minaj on “Chi-Raq” in 2014.
The Chicago rapper initially thought the offer was fake and nearly passed on the opportunity.
He says the experience motivated him to hustle harder and helped him gain traction in the industry.
G Herbo made serious money after working with Nicki Minaj on “Chi-Raq.” On Wednesday (Oct. 8), during the “Club Shay Shay” podcast, the Chicago rapper revealed he “probably made half a million dollars” after their 2014 collaboration.
Explaining how the record came together, Herbo admitted he initially turned down the offer because he thought it was fake. “It wasn’t her on the phone. It was Safaree and them on the phone,” he told Shannon Sharpe. “So, when they hit us, it was like four in the morning,” the musician recalled, adding that he was “in the studio high off lean and pills” at the time.
