Lil Baby & Lil Durk at XFINITY Theatre

Two years after he launched himself as a rapper, Atlanta native Lil Baby found himself positioned as a hot new talent on the hip-hop scene after his single "Freestyle" from his 2017 mixtape Too Hard became a YouTube hit. Primed by the release of two huge mixtapes in 2018, his debut studio album Harder Than Ever (2018) (featuring guest spots from Drake, Offset, Lil Uzi Vert, and others) launched the trap artist to stardom, going straight in at number three on the Billboard 200 and gaining platinum certification. In fact, Lil Baby had two hits in the top-10 of the Billboard Hot 100 that year – "Yes Indeed" (with Drake) from Harder Than Ever and "Drip Too Hard" from his mixtape Drip Harder. In 2020, he released his second studio album, My Turn, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and has since been certified triple-platinum. It became the most-streamed album of 2020 and spawned two top-10 singles: "We Paid" (with 42 Dugg) and "The Bigger Picture" (which peaked at number three on the Hot 100). He went straight into the top spot on the Billboard 200 once again with his 2021 collaborative album with Lil Durk: The Voice of the Heroes.
