Scorpion in June, go on
tour with Migos, add a verse to every
up-and-coming southern rapper within earshot — reads more like a tactical war plan. The latest upstart to get the Drake stimulus package is Lil Baby.

The OVO headmaster opens the song with his typical subject matter: raps about his decade-long dominance, boasts involving his Young Cash family member, and mentions of his strip club dalliances. The verse is serviceable, nevertheless Lil Baby wisely decides to take advantage of a golden possibility — not getting upstaged by Drake.

Baby keeps it up and continues to shred the beat with a breathless flow that proves he is a star in the making.

learned to rap from Migos and Young Thug.
