Lil Baby Shades Roddy Ricch After Awards Snub
There’s likely no bad blood between Lil Baby and Roddy Ricch but, for some reason, the Atlanta rapper went and retweeted a lowkey shady post that implies that he deserved the Album Of The Year award over Roddy at last night’s BET Hip-Hop Awards.
Both artists have been enjoying tremendous years. Roddy Ricch broke out in a major way last year with the release of his debut studio album Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial. For nearly a full year, it has been making noise on the charts. Lil Baby is similarly enjoying the success of his own album, My Turn, which is one of the top-selling projects of the entire year.

For much of last night and today, people have been complaining about Lil Baby being snubbed at the BET Hip-Hop Awards, which took place last night. The superstar rapper won for Impact Song with “The Bigger Picture” but people think he deserved better, specifically asking why he lost to Megan Thee Stallion in the Hip-Hop Artist Of The Year category.
Now, Lil Baby himself is getting behind the chatter, but he’s not making a fuss about his loss in that specific category. Instead, he’s going after Roddy Ricch, who defeated him in the Album Of The Year spot.
Retweeting a fan’s post about the snub, Lil Baby co-signed: “If @lilbaby4PF ain’t win album of the year that shit scripted #BETHipHopAwards2020.”
Again, there’s probably no beef between the two artists but still, Lil Baby thinks he deserved the win and, as many have already agreed, he may be right.
Do you think Roddy Ricch deserved the prize or would you have given it to Lil Baby? It’s a pretty close call.

One Yen unveils where alternative rock meets the search for something more with “Vesica Piscis (Open)”
One Yen‘s latest release, “Vesica Piscis (Open)” is an emotionally charged and provocative album of alternative rock that is as compelling as it is powerful. With driving rhythms, layered guitars, atmospheric textures, and soaring melodic vocals, the song captures the spirit of late ‘90s alt-rock while embracing the big sound of modern alt-rock.
Named after the ancient symbol created by the intersection of two circles, Vesica Piscis immediately positions itself as more than a typical rock anthem. It explores awakening, self-discovery, duality, and man’s eternal quest for meaning outside the material world. Instead of giving easy answers, the lyrics begin an ongoing dialogue about identity, consciousness, and transcendence.
Musically, the song keeps up a compelling sense of momentum throughout. The song is built around a powerful foundation of energetic instrumentation, with atmospheric layers providing enough space for reflection. That mix of power and nuance ensures that the ride is never so enthralling that it loses its emotional heft.

Wyn Calico create the need to support with his latest release “Support”
Wyn Calico steps into deeply personal territory with his latest single, “Support,” a heartfelt offering that addresses a feeling many people know, but rarely express so openly. It’s a song about the universal desire to be encouraged, recognised, and uplifted, turning personal frustration into a relatable message of resilience.
“Support” is a meditation on what it feels like to work tirelessly for something you want, but not have the support you need to fully achieve it. Wyn Calico expresses the emotional burden of wanting to make a difference, believing in your purpose, and still moving forward when you hit setbacks. The song is not only about disappointment, but also a rallying cry of resilience in the face of adversity.
This song also highlights an important truth, there are many talented and hard-working people out there who have everything it takes to make a difference, except the encouragement and opportunity to flourish. Wyn Calico’s lyrics and delivery shine a light on that struggle and offer a sense of solidarity to those in similar situations.
“Support” isn’t just a personal statement. It’s a conversation starter. It encourages us to think about the value of community, support, and believing in each other. Wyn Calico’s latest drop is honest, relatable, and emotionally driven, a powerful reminder that even in the moments of isolation, the desire to keep pushing forward is still stronger than ever.
