G Herbo announced on Instagram yesterday, September 12th, that his new album Survivor’s Remorse will be dropping very soon. The Chicago artist released his last full-length album in 2021 titled 25 which received massive praise from fans & critics. Both this new album title & his 2020 album PTSD showcase Herbo’s effort to touch on his trauma & mental health. 2022 has been a year full of major releases, but now is the perfect time for the Swervo rapper to step into the mix.
What We Know About G Herbo’s New Album
Last Friday, September 9, he released a new single with A Boogie Wit da Hoodie called “Me, Myself & I“. With the album being officially announced, this single will likely end up being on the final track list for Survivor’s Remorse. Most importantly, the album is split into “Side A” & “Side B” which means we could be getting a large number of songs from him. It’ll be very interesting to see if maybe the double sides make sense conceptually in a similar way as Kendrick Lamar‘s last release. Last, Herbo’s initial Instagram post revealed the project’s cover. The main focus in the image is G Herbo in all-black attire sitting in an all-red studio with his posse faded out.

Album Title Relevant To The Times
There are probably tons of rappers & people in general that can relate to the heavy album title. Survivor’s Remorse is another way to describe survivor’s guilt. This is a topic & point of view G Herbo draws from heavily in his music. Many of his friends have passed away, but also many of his peers. Just yesterday as well, unfortunately, we learned about PNB Rock dying in LA after his location was accidentally shared. Situations like this are truly tragic and serve as a warning for all professionals in the field. With that aside, how deep on this topic do you think G Herbo will delve into the new album?
