In the age of social media, most rappers would certainly agree that your image is just as important as the music you’re putting out. Most of the names at the top of the charts are often lyricizing about their luxurious lifestyles. Concurrently, it only makes sense that they share some of that lavishnesses online from time to time. Most recently, Lil Baby reminded the world that, rather than having his jewellery made by human hands, it comes from the controversial African mines where countless children partake in slavery on a regular basis.
Monday (March 20) saw the father of two flexing his flashy, larger-than-life earrings on his Instagram Story. “These ain’t lab diamonds,” he assured viewers, setting himself apart from the rest. “My shit out the mud, these real stones 
.” As he continued recording, Baby showed off more of his expensive outfit. He completed his look with Nike’s new Air Force 1 Low “Tiffany” colourway on his feet, and more silver accessories on his wrist and neck.
While some were inspired by Baby’s major flex, others in DJ Akademiks’ comment section made it known that the My Turn hitmaker’s video left them feeling disappointed. “A five-year-old without an arm in Sierra Leone is digging it up,” one person speculated. “Basically he got taxed for child labour diamonds. Ain’t nothing wrong with lab [made],” someone else pointed out. The general public is obviously unimpressed. However, another rap star – Lil Yachty – left a seemingly positive message about his friend’s foreign gems. “On God!!!” the former SoundCloud star wrote.
Elsewhere in the replies, another IG user explained the difference between Lil Baby’s diamonds and those which are made by humans. “One is found in nature and the other one is made in a lab. But both are real,” they shared. “The beef starts with the jewelry industry because lab diamonds cut the middle man and the process is cheaper and faster to make, that’s why the jewellery industry throws so much negative shade at it.” Are you a fan of the 28-year-old’s earrings?

Fred Again.., Skrillex, and Four Tet have dropped their new collaboration, “Baby Again..,” to the delight of many fans. And, as the title describes, Lil Baby sings on it.
The track opens with a building electronic beat as Baby’s vocals are slowly introduced. A bonafide synth dance instrumental, it’s perfect for any kind of party, especially one with lights that are timed to the addictive loops. It continues for over five minutes but still doesn’t seem to overstay its welcome.
“Baby puttin’ on for the city / Baby, he the realest, Baby prolly got a couple million / Baby hang with four or five killers / Baby got children, Baby prolly still drug dealin,” he says in the bridge.
Fred Again.. first teased the song during his Boiler Room show last summer, per a press release. It had been created after the three musicians had done an impromptu studio session in Pangbourne. Just earlier this year, the trio played a massive show at Madison Square Garden to a sold-out crowd for about five hours of back-to-back performances.
“I did something and I didn’t like it. I thought I ruined the song,” Skrillex previously said on BBC Radio 1 (via EDM) about his other work with Fred Again… “I was scared to play it.”

A new rumor is circulating about a possible collaboration project between Drake and Lil Baby. DJ Black Coffee shared in a new interview that the two rap stars may have a joint album in the works. Soulistic Music founder, DJ Black Coffee hinted in a new interview on Podcast and Chill with Mac G, that […]

Lil Baby and Drake doing a whole project together? Yes please!
Lil Baby blessed the stage at Rolling Loud this past weekend in Los Angeles, and one song fans can always look forward to hearing is “Yes Indeed.” Serving as Baby’s first collaboration with Drake back in 2018, the song immediately went viral as everyone recited the line: “wah wah wah, b*tch I’m the Baby!”
The dynamic duo has since released even more bangers, including “Girls Want Girls,” “Never Recover,” and “Wants and Needs.”
Now, it appears the two may have a joint project in the works — per Black Coffee, a producer who worked on Drake’s 2022 album titled Honestly, Nevermind. The South African DJ recently went on MacG’s Podcast and Chill to unveil the exciting news, which stems from a conversation he had with Coach K from Quality Control.

Black Coffee states, “He had said to me Lil Baby and Drake are making an album. It’s possible Drake is retiring, I’m like ‘whatever’.”
This seems like a very possible collaboration, given Drake’s last project was a collaborative effort with 21 Savage called Her Loss. The tape debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, as “Rich Flex” immediately became a viral sensation.
Beyond that, Lil Baby was even recording new music at Drake’s mansion in Toronto just last year in May. During a livestream, Drake informed the viewers that Lil Baby was putting in work in The Embassy.”
“By the way, my brother Lil Baby is in the studio right now,” Drake stated. “He’s cooking up. We’re working.”
Soon after, Drake said he wanted to stop the studio session to get Baby so they could gamble together.
If this album does come into fruition, this will be the third Atlanta rapper Drake has done a project with, following 21 Savage as well as Future on 2015’s What A Time To Be Alive.

Drake and 21 Savage’s surprise album Her Loss was a rousing success last year and a worthy follow-up to his previous joint project with an Atlanta trap rapper, 2015’s What A Time To Be Alive with Future. And while a sequel to What A Time has apparently been in the works since before the COVID-19 pandemic, it looks like Drake’s next ATL team-up will be with a different rapper with whom he’s shown great chemistry: Lil Baby.
That’s right: Drake and Lil Baby have reportedly been working on a joint album, according to Drake’s Honestly, Nevermind collaborator Black Coffee. The South African DJ recently noted that Quality Control’s Coach K told him about the project during an interview, saying, “He had said to me Lil Baby and Drake are making an album” (Lil Baby is signed to the Atlanta-based label). He also noted that “it’s possible Drake is retiring,” which does echo a sentiment Drake himself shared with another QC artist, Lil Yachty.

If Drake and Lil Baby really are working on a joint project together, it’ll be an appropriate way to tie off a trilogy of projects with Atlanta trap rappers whose careers he helped immensely, and the culmination of his and Baby’s growing chemistry. In 2018, Drake helped supercharge the ATLien’s rise to stardom his feature on “Yes Indeed,” leading to a string of similar collaborations like “Staying Alive” and “Wants And Needs” from Scary Hours 2. In fact, Baby was supposed to appear on “Toosie Slide” as well, but Baby was busy with other commitments at the time.
Hopefully, he’ll be able to stay on tast this time around and help deliver what’ll almost certainly be a fan-favorite project in the vein of both rappers’ beloved joint projects (Lil Baby previously worked with Gunna on Drip Too Hard). Fingers crossed, folks. You can watch Black Coffee’s full Podcast And Chill interview above.

We could be nearing the end of the Drake era. The rapper recently revealed that he’s allowed the idea of a “graceful exit” to fester in his mind before bowing out of the rap game for good. “I’m at the point now where I just want to, like, and I feel like maybe we talked about this the other day, but I feel like I’m kind of introducing the concept in my mind of a graceful exit,” he told Yachty during Moody Conversations. In the past 14 years since the release of So Far Gone, Drake became a cultural behemoth with a grip on the Billboard charts, unlike any other artist who came before him.
It seems as though we might end up getting at least one more album out of him before he decides to call it quits. In November, he joined forces with 21 Savage for his latest body of work, Her Loss, which closed out a trilogy that began with Certified Lover Boy and followed by Honestly, Nevermind. Though he hasn’t indicated what his next project would be, he did confirm that he will likely release more new music later this year.

Perhaps, the next addition to Drake’s catalog could be a new collaborative effort with Lil Baby. The two rappers developed a strong rapport over the years with the Canadian star previously inviting Baby to his home to record new music last year. However, Baby didn’t appear on Her Loss, so many assume that he was cooking up music for It’s Only Me. Turns out, he may have been working on a new joint project with Drizzy.
Black Coffee, the South African DJ who helped produce Honestly, Nevermind, recently sat down for an interview with MacG where he seemingly spilled the beans about Baby and Drake’s joint effort. Detailing a conversation with Coach K of Quality Control, he said, “He had said to me Lil Baby and Drake are making an album. It’s possible Drake is retiring.” Though Drake nor Baby have confirmed whether there’s any truth to Black Coffee’s claims, we’re hoping that they come through with new heat for the summer. Check out Black Coffee’s comments above.
