Rapper G Herbo is in the news for all the wrong reasons after an explicit photo circulated on social media depicting two men having relations, one of them who is said to be the rapper. Herbo has since said the photo “shows someone else.”

The picture showed a man, believed to be Herbert Randy Wright, aka G Herbo, 21, performing a sex act on another man. Twitter blew up on the consensus that the man pictured was in-fact the Chicago rapper.

The image appeared to originate on Snapchat. Herbo is due to drop his debut album, Humble Beast, in 2017. He’s been associated with Common, Nicki Minaj and Chief Keef. His most recent mixtape, Strictly 4 My Fans, came out in November 2016. Herbo meanwhile was quick to respond to the buzz on his Facebook page. The rapper later wrote on the page, “Don’t even know why I took the time out my day to respond to this s***.” Facebook posts indicate that Herbo is dating Ariana Fletcher, a former waitress from Chicago. On the day the infamous photo went viral, Fletcher wrote on Facebook “clearly that’s not him.” She later re-posted Herbo’s response saying, “Leave it up to me.” Fletcher says she is engaged on her social media page. Formerly, Fletcher worked as a waitress at Adrianna’s Nightclub in Chicago. Since then, Fletcher has operated her own hair extension business known as KyChe Hair Extensions. h/t heavy


Fans of Herbo have said on Twitter that the man pictured is another aspiring rapper from Flint, Michigan. That man’s girlfriend responded angrily on social media to the allegations. That woman wrote, “I’m cutting into everybody f*** outta here with that BS.”
