Lil Baby grew up in Atlanta and is friends with Young Thug , among others . While this was successfully getting his rapper career off the ground, Lil Baby was convicted of minor crimes and was jailed for two years at 19 for violating probation. After his release in 2017, he decided to take music seriously and released his first mixtape Perfect Timing shortly thereafter . A little later, the second tape Harder Than Hard followed with the song My Dawg , which became a first single hit in the Hot 100 . Two more mixtapes followed, just a few months apart. With the fourth, entitled Too Hard , he also entered the album charts at the end of the year .
The breakthrough came in May 2018 with his debut album Harder Than Ever . The album debuted at number 3 on the official charts. In addition to Young Thug, Gunna , Moneybagg Yo and above all the Canadian rapper Drake were among the contributors. He was featured on the song Yes Indeed , which not only became a big hit in the US and reached number 6, but also made Lil Baby known in Europe and put it in the charts. In the United States, the song was awarded platinum . Two more songs on the album also made it into the charts. Another mixtape with Gunna was released in October, which included Drip Too Hard, his next international hit.
With the release of his subsequent mixtape Street Gossip , which entered the US album charts at number two in December 2018, six more songs hit the Billboard Hot 100, including Pure Cocaine .
