Atlanta artist Lil Baby has been receiving worldwide acclaim ever since his iconic 2018 collaboration with Drake for “Yes Indeed.”
The track has managed to impressively rack up over 600 million global Spotify streams to date. Given the success of the single, it made complete sense the pair would reunite again on Drake’s three piece Scary Hours 2 EP for “Wants and Needs.” However, now it seems as if the two have even more music coming down the road.
“I ain’t gon’ lie, I got a song for [Drake] right now,” Lil Baby told Icebox.
“I done went to the studio like two times. I ain’t feel it yet. But it’s like a slow song. All the slow songs, they really—and then it takes me longer to rap ’cause like, I don’t really care what I say on a song. You feel me? I just freestyle. But with Drake, I be trying to think about it. And that’s what makes it harder for me ’cause like, I’m thinking. When I don’t even think, I just rap. So then like, ’cause it’s Drake, I get kind of like, damn… So I gotta make sure. Now it’s kind of like, eh.”
Lil Baby also took the time to explain the writing process for his upcoming album: But my next album, I’m writing it. Every song, I’m writing it. So it’s gonna be more detailed. Right now, I freestyle so only the top of my brain comes out.”
