“I never knew anything about rapping.”

I grew up listening to everybody.

I always knew ‘My Dawg’ would be a hit, but I didn’t even know what a hit was. When I made the song I knew it sounded hard.

I want to let them know they can have this much fun by doing something legal like me rapping for instance.

The more I’m in it, the more I’m practicing and the more I’m advancing.

Like you might love watching basketball, but that don’t mean that you’ll get on the court.

I just save my money, man. I don’t even try to enjoy it like these other rappers; they having fun and they lit, but they gon’ be broke later on. I be savin’.

I can’t really describe my sound.

What I might feel like is hard work, another person is dying to do.

Every day I’m getting shaped and molded. Keepin’ on, being a better artist, and improving on this, improving on that.

I done paid Gunna to write my songs. I never put the songs out but like when I first started rapping I used to pay him like $100 like ‘I’ma give you a $100 write something for me so I can try to learn to go in and record it.’

I got the name Lil Baby because I always hung around older dudes.

Young Thug, he gave me all the jewels. He literally paid me to leave the neighborhood.

I’m changing every day as far as this rap thing. I’m learning new things. I’m getting bigger by the day.

I feel like I wrote that. If I go in there and fix it, it’s almost like something I wrote.

The first project, I made 16 songs and put 12 of them on the mixtape.

My story is going to be completely different than someone else’s story in terms of hard work.

I think I would cease to accomplish anything productive, would quickly dispense with all human contact, and would very well end up with a nasty case of arthritis in my over-used digits from constant gameplay.

More than anything I love being on stage and performing

I never want to take away something when I don’t have anything better to offer him in a way.

The artist’s task is to save the soul of mankind; and anything less is a dithering while Rome burns. Because of the artists, who are self-selected, for being able to journey into the Other, if the artists cannot find the way, then the way cannot be found.

I don’t really think anything Microsoft does puts pressure on Apple.

Anything was better than nothing. Half-full was better than empty. Ignorance was the lowest form of humiliation and suffering.

My mother never really thought I could become anything.

What I love more than anything is Jerry Goldsmith’s 80’s music and Bernard Herrmann’s genre music from the 50’s and 60’s.
