G Herbo has been focusing on music since his release from jail earlier this month. Appearing on K104FM last week, the rapper offered up an impressive freestyle over Three 6 Mafia's "Who Run It." Fans immediately took notice of how great he sounded over the beat, and among those fans was none other than Drake.

After receiving a lot of praise for the freestyle, Herbo posted a screenshot of his DMs with Drake. "Why you spaz on who run it like that," Drake said to Herbo. "I been listening for like 5 days straight. To the same 30 second clip. You should make that a song and just drop it." After Drake's DMs, Herbo decided it was time to unleash the full thing.

Challenging his fans, he said, "BIG BRO SAID DO IT SO I DID IT. 150,000 LIKES & IMMA DROP THAT BITCH." Over 300,000 likes later, he delivered the full freestyle, and it lives up to the hype.

Playing up to the fast-paced beat, Herbo flexes his talents across the freestyle. The original version of "Who Run It" released all the way back in 2000 on Three 6 Mafia's When the Smoke Clears: Sixty 6, Sixty 1.
