This is the gold standard of an artist responding well to PR/Media training. Humble, appreciative, no hate, no controversy. Youngin soaking up game from Coach K and the QC team. No need to cap...he's been in the streets...served time...been there...done that. Good to see this young brotha leveling up and making something out of those hard times. Salute to Lil Baby. #definitely

[@saint_apollo]

I think what separates Lil Baby from other rappers is that everything he puts out is very high quality music. He’s always on point and you never hear a “bad” Lil Baby song. He one of the few artist that knows how to stay “on” and has the ear to put out music that is crafted remarkably.
