He’s collaborated with notable rappers like Drake, Gunna, and SSO Sneezy while a few of his tracks have made it to Billboard’s 100 and 200 list. Check out Lil Baby’s most hottest hits as we’ve collected our top 10 favorites of his banging releases.

10. “Pure Cocaine”
25-year-old Lil Baby has whipped up a song that is both visually and musically fitting for How The Grinch Stole Christmas as he raps about his newly enhanced life and all the luxurious icy jewelry he’s started to wear.

9. “Baby” feat. DaBaby
The two freshest babies in Hip-Hop had collaborated together for the first time ever on Quality Control’s Control The Streets, Vol. 2 compilation album. Later they came together once more and created this masterpiece where the duo repeats the word “baby,” 37 times.

8. “Life Goes On” feat. Gunna & Lil Uzi Vert
Some might call this threesome the holy trinity due to the cinematic production and the immediate peak it received at No. 74 on the Hot 100.

7. “Freestyle”
As Lil Baby incorporates the use and popping of Percs in his hit song, “Freestyle,” his recent interview with New York Times admitted that Baby will stop creating content that includes drug use since he doesn’t affiliate with that lifestyle anymore.

6. “Close Friends” with Gunna
In his brilliant one hit wonder, Lil Baby showcases the many angles of his craft by vulnerably singing to the ladies about the painful end of a relationship over a somber Turbo instrumental.

5. “My Dawg”
“My Dawg” was Baby’s first Hot 100 hit as the simply tuned track became the anthem of the University of Georgia Bulldogs’ football team. They adopted the inspirational song as their official theme song for the 2017-2018 season.

4. “Yes Indeed” feat. Drake
Drake has no problem giving endless opportunities to a skillful rapper when he sees one. In 2018, Lil Baby and Drake collabed for the first time with “Yes Indeed,” as the up and coming artist proved that he’s got what it takes to hang out with his predecessors.

3. “Southside”
Tackling a different persona on this track, Lil Baby has shifted gears towards a more half-singing flow. Baby refers back to his drug dealing days where he had an utmost love for flashy fame and fortune, something he is no longer doing.

2. “I’m On” SSO Sneezy feat. Lil Baby
Lil Baby has collabed with SSO Sneezy on a hot new joint leaving every rap music fan speechless. As it’s considered to be a serious contestant for Hip-Hop track of the year, the two artists deliver a smooth and velvety track that showcases their versatility, improvement in music, and passion for their craft.

GMG_Grizz brings melodic rap and undeniable attitude on latest release “Something Slight”

GMG_Grizz is here with “Something Slight,” officially released as “Something Slight Freestyle,” a rap record built on confidence, personal ambition and lyrical self-assurance. The St. Louis artist’s track, embraces the familiar brag-track approach, but gives it an interesting musical direction through its melodic rap delivery. The title itself is indicative of the mindset going into the release, showing the artist’s ability to spit dope flows and bars as just something natural, not some Herculean effort.

The flowing piano movement and the bouncing rhythm is what makes this freestyle worth revisiting. These elements make the record sound familiar but still keep the arrangement catchy and accessible. GMG_Grizz’s direction is more toward confidence and individuality, someone who is comfortable with his work ethic and the lifestyle he portrays. The melodic approach also gives the track a different personality than a straight rap performance, allowing its rhythm to carry much of the appeal.

“Something Slight” is a tantalising taste of where GMG_Grizz is heading musically. There’s room for him to explore this sound further, but the piano and rhythmic bounce provide a foundation for keeping the track interesting. A confident freestyle with a personality that you can recognise and re-play value.

François Marius pushes romantic excitement into a dancefloor celebration with “La Loco”

François Marius arrives with a jolt of Latin Pop energy with “La Loco,” a dance-friendly track about attraction, romantic excitement and the fun madness of falling for someone. “LA Loco” is an immediate invitation to dance, with its catchy guitars, groovy bassline and spirited vocals giving it a friendly musical personality. Its approach is refreshingly simple, with the aim of having a good time rather than complicate the experience unnecessarily.

The song becomes even more interesting when Bérénice is on board, because the chemistry between the two performers is palpable. Their vocal call and response is a playful give and take, reflecting the thrill of two people being attracted to each other. It makes the romantic theme feel conversational, turning the performance into a musical chase instead of a one-sided declaration.

The acoustic elements also merge with the modern Latin beats, defining the danceable orientation of the track. “La Loco” is ultimately about enjoying the thrill that comes with attraction and letting yourself get carried away by the moment. Its constant call to swing along adds another layer of infectious energy. François Marius and Bérénice are a feel good collaboration that combines romance, rhythm and movement into an appealing Latin Pop package.
