On Wednesday (May 27), the Quality Control signee announced the launch of his My Turn playlist series, which will be updated bi-weekly and feature songs curated by athletes of his choosing. In addition to highlighting their favorite Lil Baby tracks, the select sports stars will also be choosing other songs they feel “represents their own My Turn moment.”
To launch the first set, Baby teamed with Memphis Grizzlies guard and 2019-2020 NBA Rookie of the Year Ja Morant.

There are also a few drops from Morant himself, who broke down his “My Turn moment” for fans.
“I feel like it’s my turn because I’m one of the top rookies in the league right now and I feel like it’s my turn to show that I’m one of the top players in this league,” he said.

Is it me,or are these generation of rappers/artist becoming more and more gayer and less original and creative. What happened to lyricism, passion for the art, competitiveness, creating your own sound and identity. Most these rappers now all sound alike look alike and from the way they dress…. probably have sex with each other. Its like the Dave Chappelle Show Skit with Charlie Murphy talking about the Rick James Era where the “guys looking more like bitches”…..but instead of getting all the women,they act more like them. And when these so called rappers beef with each other,it’s like watching Real HouseWives Of Atlanta.
Since when is ja Morant a superstar… cmon
