Lil Baby Isn’t Here For The Fame — Even After Earning Rapper Of The Year Crown

    Lil Baby’s “best year ever” still makes him adverse to being famous and receiving high praise from his peers.

    “[I get] like maximum attention now,” he told the outlet. “To me it’s not about the fame game – it’s more about real life. I’ve not been famous that long, so I’m not too wrapped up in the fame game. I can’t say [fame is] something I want or don’t want because I just believe it goes with what’s going on. If this is what comes with it, I’m with it.”

    After previously stating he never wanted to be a rapper, Baby racked up the accolades in 2020, releasing rap’s only double-platinum album of the year, My Turn. earning two Grammy Award nominations for “The Bigger Picture” and praise from predecessors such as Lil Wayne and Meek Mill. However, the heaping of praise doesn’t shift his perspective when it comes to rapping.

    “I ain’t going to say I don’t care because I do care, but it doesn’t really rock my world to hear that kind of stuff,” he said. “I try not to let some stuff get to my head so I don’t get a big head and fall off track. I take it in but, kind of don’t take it in.”

What is wrong with light skinned anything. Did the same mess to Chris Brown because he dates light women so what the hell does that mean you can’t stop people from liking what they like. Stop trying to make people feel some type of way over dumb shit anyway.

    2. Rapper? I don’t think so. Singer? Maybe he’s up there. I’m not trying to knock his hustle and success, but he is not a rapper.
