Grammy-nominated Lil Baby has been one of the most dominant and critically-acclaimed names in rap since his first release in 2017. In February 2020 he released My Turn, which entered The Billboard 200 at #1, hovered in the Top 5 for 14 weeks, and then returned to #1 in June for four consecutive weeks. The album was the #1 streamed and #1 selling album of any genre in 2020. Lil Baby is as authentic as they come; at just 26 years old, he is unapologetically himself, speaking his truth in his lyrics and that connects him to listeners like no other. Last June as the nation protested, Lil Baby dropped a powerful record “The Bigger Picture,” articulating frustration, confusion, and a call to stand up for something much bigger than himself.
My Turn held 14 records simultaneously on The Billboard Hot 100, and Lil Baby has recently surpassed musical titans Prince and Paul McCartney among others in Billboard Hot 100 hits in his young 3-year career. To date, Baby’s catalogue reached 22 billion global streams, scored 8 #1 songs at urban radio, won the BET Award for Best New Artist, named Vevo's Top Performing Hip-Hop Artist of 2020, named MVP on Rap Caviar, he won the top award of Global Artist of the Year at the Apple Music Awards. “The Bigger Picture” was nominated for two Grammy’s (Best Rap Performance & Best Rap Song). He has seen widespread critical acclaim from the likes of GQ and Vanity Fair and has graced the covers of Rolling Stone and NME. With such a rapid rise and a relentless stream of critical and commercial hits, it's clear that Lil Baby is one of the greatest modern success stories in hip-hop.

To watch our “Baby” grow into a more comfortable man in these interviews and in the game is so refreshing. So many of us want to protect him at all costs from anything and I will say this is one interview where we see him actually feeling more comfortable. We know he really be in his own zone and to get him to open up and out his shell was so refreshing. This our “Baby” he’s different.

I rarely see an interview when the interviewer drops gems, advice, and encouragement. Usually they hype you, tell a little of they business, try to get the tea on the person ect. This is a vibe. Great job. Lil Baby took away something from this 👌🏽
