“I ain’t never had nothing good in life.”

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 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.

Jealousy is all the fun you think they had.

One had better die fighting against injustice than die like a dog or a rat in a trap.

If I had a horse of my own that I loved and fed and knew me, it would be amazing.

I love coming to work. I never have a bad day.

The attitude that I’m going to show everybody, I’m going to work hard to get better and better.

Over my career, I’ve had to adjust my game.

We’ve had this date with each other from the beginning.

If we just had an election which is a kind of desiccated calculation, obviously I think the Conservatives have the best economic plans, but it is about more than that. It is about the overall person.
