Lil Durk and G Herbo proved just how much of a true fan they are of each other during their hit battle over Instagram live on Saturday (May 23rd), when they stayed true to their word and actually played their favourite hits from one another's catalogue. On Friday (May 22nd), it was announced that the two friends and past collaborators would be going head-to-head over IG live courtesy of Chicago radio station, 107.5 WGCI. While the premise of a battle is to compete against one another by using your own vast catalogue of hits, Durk and Herbo both claimed they were going to use the opportunity to show their love for each other by playing their opponents' biggest hits.

It looks like they actually kept their promise. In a clip from the battle, Durkio's "Can't Go Like That" off his 2013 mixtape Signed to the Streets plays as Herbo bops along with his son, Yosohn. Because they didn't exactly stick to the rules, there was no clear winner, but when two artists love each other's music as much as they do, everybody wins.

Prior to the battle taking place, Herbo got tangled up in some of 6ix9ine's antics, after he left a comment on a post about the "GOOBA" rapper. When 6ix9ine reminded the world that Charlamagne promised he'd "suck his dick" if 6ix9ine beat his case, Herbo pointed out that technically, since he copped a plea deal and snitched, it didn't count. The two of them proceeded to exchange jabs before Herbo got the final word in.
