G Herbo is kicking off 2026 on a high note, celebrating a significant milestone in his career with the achievement of his first solo platinum plaque for the hit single “Went Legit.” This track, produced in part by Southside and sampling Kanye West’s “Drive Slow,” is featured on his 2024 mixtape, Greatest Rapper Alive.
Launched initially on an exclusive app that provided fans with unique content, Greatest Rapper Alive made its way to all streaming platforms in April 2025. “Went Legit” has resonated with listeners, contributing to G Herbo’s remarkable success this past month.
While G Herbo has previously been recognized by the RIAA, holding five certifications from collaborations on tracks like Nardo Wick’s “Who Want Smoke??” and Young Dolph’s “1 Scale,” this accolade is particularly special. “Went Legit” marks his first solo platinum plaque, achieved without any featured artists.
Herbo took to Instagram to express his gratitude, posting a screenshot of the RIAA certification with the caption, “THANK GOD FRFR.”
In addition to his musical achievements, G Herbo recently celebrated another significant personal milestone. On New Year’s Eve, he proposed to his long-time girlfriend, Taina Williams, who accepted his proposal. The intimate moment took place at the Brooklyn Chop House in Miami. The couple, who have been together since 2019 and share two children—Essex, born in 2021, and Emmy, born in 2022—documented the special evening on social media. Herbo humorously captioned one of his posts, “LAST NIGHT WAS 1 OF THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE… I MANNED UP I BOSSED UP & I MADE THE SMARTEST DECISION EVER BY MAKING @latainax3 SIGN A DEATH ROW CONTRACT!!! THIS SH*T 4 LIFE NOW.”
As G Herbo continues to reach new heights in both his career and personal life, fans eagerly await what he will accomplish next. For more updates on G Herbo and other celebrity milestones, stay tuned to hiphopraisedmetheblog.com.
