Lil Baby
Lil Baby, born Dominique Armani Jones, in Atlanta, Georgia, is one of hip-hop’s most influential voices. Emerging from the streets of Atlanta, he turned to rap in 2017 and quickly gained traction with mixtapes like Perfect Timing and Harder Than Hard. His debut studio album, Harder Than Ever (2018), put him on the map with the platinum hit “Yes Indeed” featuring Drake. He continued his rise with My Turn (2020), which became the year’s best-selling album in the U.S., solidifying his place among rap’s elite.
Beyond music, Lil Baby has made a significant impact through his activism and philanthropy. His 2020 protest anthem “The Bigger Picture” addressed police brutality and systemic racism, earning GRAMMY nominations and cultural recognition. He has also invested in his community, supporting education initiatives and social programs in Atlanta. As he continues to evolve artistically and personally, Lil Baby remains a defining voice in modern hip-hop.
