Still Swervin

Released in early 2019, Still Swervin serves as a spiritual successor to the 2018 collaborative project 'Swervo'. The album marks a deepening of the creative partnership between G Herbo and 808 Mafia kingpin Southside. While Herbo is often associated with the gritty, soul-sampling 'No Limitations' style of Chicago hip-hop, this project sees him fully embracing the polished, aggressive trap soundscapes of the late 2010s. The 15-track effort is notable for its lack of major features, allowing Herbo's distinctive, often polarizing rhythmic timing to take center stage. Critics noted the project's 'replay value,' driven by Southside's trunk-rattling percussion and Herbo's increasingly sophisticated storytelling. It sits in Herbo's catalog as a bridge between his raw drill roots and his later, more overtly 'conscious' explorations of PTSD, proving his ability to dominate mainstream trap production without losing his street-level credibility.
