Signed to Quavo's Huncho Records at the age of 14, rapper Street Bud shot to fame after winning the reality TV show "The Rap Game" in late 2018.  Following his feature on Quality Control's "Control The Streets, Vol. 2, the rapper released his debut album, "Back 2 the Lab", in early 2020 with features from Quavo and Sheck Wes. 

Born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, rapper Street Bud began his rap career at the age of 11, demonstrating his talent with freestyles before releasing the 2016 anthem "Getcha Mind Right." With a bounce-driven approach and surprisingly dexterous flow, the rapper soon began to rack up hundreds of thousands of views online, finding particular success with 2016 singles "Dabb Down," "Steph Curry," and "Nah FR!" His debut mixtape, Get Cha Mind Right, landed in June that year, compiling many of the rapper's key hits thus far.

Yet this would pale in comparison to the rapper's imminent success. Entering and winning the Jermaine Dupri-helmed reality show "The Rap Game", Street Bud quickly saw an influx of attention online, eventually landing a deal with Huncho Records in early 2019. "Back 2 the Lab" was supported by the Quavo assisted "Open House". “Back 2 the Lab” which did over 4 million streams in its opening week.

Some artists define a genre, but Lil Baby defines a generation. The GRAMMY Award-winning rapper has smashed records, made history, and impacted the course of modern hip-hop with his instantly identifiable and inimitable style. He has garnered dozens of multi platinum certifications and tens of billions of streams as arguably the biggest new rapper to emerge this decade. Following the success of his platinum full-length debut Harder Than Ever in 2018, he seized #1 on the Billboard Top 200 with 2020’s My Turn, becoming “the year’s #1 selling and #1 streaming album in the US.” At first, it cemented him as “2020’s first and only artist to go double-platinum,” but it has since gone quadruple-platinum and has logged 85 weeks in the top 10 of the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart – marking the longest top-tier run in the chart’s history. 

 

He notably tied Prince and Paul McCartney for Billboard Hot 100 hits and Taylor Swift for “most weeks atop the Billboard Top 200 in 2020” with a total of 6. Out of eight nominations, he scored his first GRAMMY® Award in 2022. He has appeared on the covers of Rolling Stone and the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Power Players Issue in addition to receiving honors from VEVO, Rap Caviar, the Apple Music Awards, and more. He teamed up with Lil Durk for The Voice of the Heroes, marking his second #1 debut on the Billboard Top 200. It’s just the beginning though. He’s bound to revolutionize the culture again with his third album in 2022. Most recently, he released “Right On” and “In A Minute” which both songs debuted on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. This feat puts Lil Baby in rare territory, making him the youngest of only 12 artists to have ever landed 100 or more songs on the Hot 100. This generation belongs to Lil Baby.
