Sheff G Returns After A Turbulent Stretch With “Proud Of Myself” Album

“10 MILL BOND, 1.5 MILL CASH BAIL WAS THE TICKET‼️ BAIL PAID SAME DAY ARE YOU DUMB, SHEFF G BACK‼️ NEW YORK. WE F***ING LITTTTT THEY COUNTED ME OUT!! THEY THOUGHT I WAS DONE , PEACE AND LOVE TO YALL LOL.” That is the energy that Sheff G is on across his new album, Proud Of Myself. If you remember, the New York drill rapper and songwriter was dealing with a gun possession case and multiple gang allegations. But that wasn’t going to keep him down for long. It’s a big day for Sheff G, as Proud Of Myself is a bit of a victory lap.

Themes of self-growth, success, and resiliency are peppered throughout the 15-song offering, his first since 2022’s From The Can. This project arrives at another opportune time for Sheff G, because pretty soon, a close friend of his is going to drop a LP in about two weeks. Sleepy Hallow is going to drop his project on December 6, perhaps as a continuation of this celebration of freedom. These two albums have a close relation to one another also because of the rollout. Sheff G and Sleepy Hallow were putting out singles together on two-packs. Overall, their brotherhood is real and it’s proving to be even more so over these next couple of weeks.
