The proposal took place at Brooklyn Chop House, surrounded by close friends and family, including Williams’ mother, Emily B, and fellow artists like Meek Mill. The Chicago rapper dropped to one knee and spoke about the path they have traveled together. “You’ve been with me through all my trials and tribulations,” G Herbo said, according to HOT 97.
