For the past year Lil Baby’s been steadily blowing up with cuts from his debut album Harder Than Ever and though he’s been enjoying the success from the album he dropped this past May, the Atlanta rapper is closing out the year with his sophomore album, Street Gossip.
Stopping by a God-less Breakfast Club, Lil Baby chops it up with Angela Yee and DJ Envy and reveals why he missed his performance at Powerhouse, choosing his career over street life, and his theory behind Drake rocking that Quality Control piece.
Here are the 6 things we learned from Lil Baby on The Breakfast Club.

1. Powerhouse
LB says he missed his performance at Powerhouse because something went awry at the airport in Atlanta. He even tried to pay people a few thousand to let him scan their boarding pass on the plane but they weren’t biting. He ended up waiting two hours on a private plane and missed the show.

2. For The Heads
According to Lil Baby, Street Gossip is a street project and won’t have many commercial or watered down records like his previous project. Y’all agree with that sentiment?

3. Street Life
Lil Baby admits that he’s officially left that street game behind because he says he’s making more money rapping than hustling and the risks in thugging it out aren’t worth losing everything he’s worked for.

4. Natural Women
Female fans who try to slide in his DM’s or shoot their shot in person have a better chance if they’re all natural. Lil Baby says women who have extensive surgery makes him “skeptical” about whether or not they’re actually men. Fair enough especially these days because doctors done became magicians with that knife.

5. Drake
Even though Drake’s been seen with that Quality Control chain, Baby doesn’t know anything about Drizzy’s potential ties to his record label saying he thinks Drake was gifted the piece “on some cool sh*t” but ultimately he “don’t know nothing about that.”

6. Tory Lanez v. Joyner Lucas
Touching on the drama between Tory Lanez and Joyner Lucas, Lil Baby says he didn’t really know what was going on between the two and just felt that Lucas was “hard as hell.” But Tory Lanez is his man so he’s not choosing any sides. As for him, Baby says he doesn’t have time to get into any rap beefs so don’t expect him to participate in any verbal sparring anytime soon.
