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

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 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 know I can’t rap forever, but I know as long as I got a label or something I can get money forever.

Gunna was the second person I ever made a song with.

I just got an ear for the kind of things I like.

My ultimate goal is my son, and a lot of other kids, to not have to grow up the way I grew up. I just give them a different outlook on something.

I like music, I listened to all rappers; people like Jeezy, Yo Gotti, T.I.

Like people coming up to me like, ‘Nobody ever told you that you look like Lil Baby?’ But I’ll be like, nah. Or like, somebody told me that. I’ll never just say, it’s me.

I’ve been through all the bad parts of the streets.

I used to always be in Atlanta, chilling. I didn’t really have as much to do. So I would gamble as a hobby. Now I’d rather go into the studio and try to make me a hit.

I don’t really have a writing process. I don’t write at all but, honestly, I feel like it’s a modern-day writing because everything is technology and if I go in there and freestyle and I keep it.

If you’re a young black dude from the hood you want to come through the hood in a car that makes a lot of noise.

Whether I’m at the gas station or I be at the store, I be there by myself. I be regular.

Successful people have a bigger fear of failure than people who’ve never done anything because if you haven’t been successful, then you don’t know how it feels to lose it all.

Hip-hop is bigger than the South; hip-hop is bigger than New York.

Man, me and Biggie were the biggest artists in New York. When he passed, I was so messed up. My attitude was messed up about him dying. There was an East-West thing back then, and I was in war mode.

If people around you aren’t going anywhere, if their dreams are no bigger than hanging out on the corner, or if they’re dragging you down, get rid of them.

In me is working a power stronger than every other power. The life that is in me is a thousand times bigger than I am outside.

The 31th of May, I perceived in the same water more of those Animals, as also some that were somewhat bigger.

I’m a thousand times bigger on the inside than I am on the outside.
