Lil Baby Keeps The Pedal To The Metal And Returns With The Laser-Focused ‘Frozen’

Lil Baby is one of many big-name artists that are set to release a new album this summer. The rapper has been promoting his third album, which would be his first solo release since 2020’s My Turn, as one that will surely take over the music world when the warmest months of the year arrive. Lil Baby hasn’t shared too many details about his next body of work, but he has given his fans some music. Earlier this month, he released “In A Minute” and “Right Now” to kick off his 2022 campaign, and now, he returns with a third track for listeners to enjoy.

Aiming to keep his hot streak alive, Lil Baby doubles back with “Frozen.” It presents the Atlanta native as a laser-focused spitter who is determined to stick to his journey in life without letting unnecessary distractions deter him. The new tracks arrived after Lil Baby earned his 100th entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, something that only Drake, Glee, Lil Wayne, Taylor Swift, Kanye West, Future, Nicki Minaj, Elvis Presley, Chris Brown, Jay-Z, and Justin Bieber have done.

More recently, Lil Baby took the stage at the 2022 Coachella Festival, and shortly after, he was announced as one of the performers at Pharrell’s Something In The Water festival. Additionally, Lil Baby will set out on his One Of Them Ones tour alongside Chris Brown last this year.

You can listen to “Frozen” in the video above.

Pharrell’s Something In The Water Festival Returns In 2022 With Lil Baby, Chloe x Halle, And More

Pharrell Williams‘ Something In The Water festival will relocate from his hometown Virginia Beach, Virginia to Washington DC this June. This year will mark the second iteration of the festival, following its inaugural festival in 2019.

The festival takes place along Independence Avenue in DC on June 17-19, coinciding with Juneteenth. On the lineup is an eclectic selection of acts, including Lil Baby, Pusha T, Chloe x Halle, Tyler The Creator, Run The Jewels, Omar Apollo, Snoh Allegra, Ozuna, Dave Matthews Band, and more.

Williams opted not to return to Virginia Beach last year, due to “toxic energy” from the city’s mayor and local government. The fallout is a result of inaction following the shooting of Williams’ cousin, Donovon Lynch, by Virginia Beach police.

Williams said in a statement:

“Something in the Water is a Black solution (LOVE) for a systemic issue, and this year we are taking our celebration to a higher platform—the nation’s Capital during Juneteenth Weekend. We want to show the world that there is Something in the Water across the whole DMV and I want to continue to bring awareness to the greatness within these communities and invite large corporations to show up for the people. DC has always been a deep inspiration to me as a person and a musician. It is the land where Go-Go Music was birthed which has provided so much for our people. Our sponsors continue to go the extra mile to show that Something in the Water is so much more than a festival. The goodwill we generate is a defining trait of who we are. We will always have the hottest artists, but to pair that energy with these brands showing up for the community is what makes this festival a vehicle for change.”

General on-sale for the festival begins this Saturday, April 30. Past festival-goers will have access to an exclusive pre-sale beginning Wednesday. Virginia residents will have access to a “Virginia Locals Only” presale taking place Friday, April 29 beginning at 10 a.m. ET through 5 p.m. ET.

“If you’re celebrating music, if you’re celebrating Black excellence, if you’re drawing attention to the people who have dedicated their lives to knocking down barriers and uplifting our communities — then there is no better place to do that than in Washington, DC,” said Mayor Muriel Bowser in a statement “We are proud to be working with Pharrell to bring Something In The Water to DC for Juneteenth weekend. DC is open and we are ready to celebrate.”

Lil Baby Set To Drop Two New Videos This Week

Lil Baby Announces He's Dropping New Music

Lil Baby told the truth when he tweeted out, “I’m coming.” Since then, the 4PF general has been flooding the game with music. During Lil Baby’s recent surge, he’s dropped videos for “Right On” and “In a Minute.” He also dropped “2 Step” with Ed Sheeran, a video dedicated to Ukraine, and he’s not done yet.

Lil Baby is set to drop an album soon, and he’s preparing fans with many new drops. He took it to Twitter to make the announcement.

It is uncertain when the “Drip Too Hard” rapper will drop his project, but he’s clearly in that mode. His two joints, “Right On” and “In a Minute,” have entered the Billboard Top 100, making Lil Baby the youngest artist in history to score 100 Billboard Hot 100 hits.

“Right On” entered the chart at No. 13, while “In A Minute” is currently at No. 14. This milestone puts Lil Baby in a historical category. Only a handful of artists have reached triple digits in Billboard hits. Other artists with 100 or more entries on the Billboard Hot 100 chart include Drake (260), Glee (207), Lil Wayne (180), Taylor Swift (166), Kanye West (135), Future (132), Nicki Minaj (123), Elvis Presley (109), Chris Brown (107), Jay-Z (104), and Justin Bieber (103).

While waiting for Lil Baby to drop his two new videos, fans can enjoy all the new joints below.
