    street rapper maybe
    rapper who gets streams in the streets i doubt it
    Baby is top 5 dead or alive
    and lil baby type beat is the blueprint for most of the street rap

  • The statistical answer is yes.

    The streets say no.

    We'll have to see how his next solo album does.

    I'm not even a Lil Baby fan like that but My Turn and It's Only Me are still doing great on the charts and are showing longevity.

    It go 21, Yak then Lil Baby

    Kodak today is a better rapper than 21 and it’s not even close. 21 just more mainstream

    21 Savage is not a street rapper

  • Dec 2, 2023

    21 probably has more crossover appeal than Baby and Yak so, if that's what we're going by, then I guess he could be deemed the "hottest." Jack Harlow could be deemed the "hottest" too by that same metric.

    But, for a rapper who's not particularly mainstream friendly, doesn't do collab albums/tours with Drake, doesn't link up with the hottest producers like Metro, etc., Baby's numbers are pretty damn incredible for a relatively street rapper(I don't think 21 or Baby are too "street" like people say).

    My Turn's still high on the charts(24th best selling album this year) and the best selling album this decade. It's Only Me also went Platinum and was the 13th best selling album this year. And his Durk collab went Platinum too(while Savage Mode still isn't Plat).

    When you factor in how many stimulus packages 21 has compared to Baby, it makes Baby's run seem more impressive tbh.

    I've also seen more people in the hood stan Lil Baby than 21 irl.

    I don’t pay attention to numbers. When it comes to music I’m more of a music kinda of guy

    Since on these forums FW Sales mean a lot , here’s a comparison.

    Lil Baby
    2023 Spotify Streams 3.4 Billion

    From 2018 - 2023

    He’s dropped 3 solo studio albums, 2 collaborative albums and 1 mixtape that charted.
    6 projects that were on the Billboard 200

    May 2018: Harder Than Ever | FW Sales 71k | Current Sales 1X Platinum

    Oct 2018: Drip Harder FW Sales 130k | Current Sales 1X Platinum

    Nov 2018: Street Gossip | FW Sales 88k | Current Sales 500k + Gold

    Feb 2020: My Turn | FW Sales 197k | Current Sales 4X Platinum

    June 2021: The Voice of the Heroes | FW Sales 150k | Current Sales 1X Platinum

    Oct 2022: Its Only Me | FW Sales 216k | Current Sales 1X Platinum

    Vs

    21 Savage
    2023 6 Billion Streams

    From 2016 - 2023

    He’s dropped 2 solo studio albums, 3 collaborative albums and 1 ep (Savage Mode 1) that charted.
    6 projects that were on the Billboard 200

    July 2016: Savage Mode | FW Sales 12k | Current Sales 500k + Gold

    July 2017: Issa Album | FW Sales 77k | Current Sales 1X Platinum

    Oct 2017: Without Warning | FW Sales 53k | Current Sales 500k + Gold

    Dec 2018: I am > I Was | FW Sales 131k | Current Sales 1X Platinum

    Oct 2020 : Savage Mode II | FW Sales 195k | Current Sales 500k + Gold

    Nov 2022: Her Loss | FW Sales 404k | Current Sales 2X Platinum

    As solo artists, Lil Baby is undoubtedly a bigger act than 21.
    21’s numbers this past year were heavily inflated by Her Loss. He went from 2.4 billion in 2022 to 6 billion in 2023 without any new solo release. Clearly a direct result of the Drake collab album.

  • Dec 2, 2023

    I just saw Baby last night. It must be crazy being a celebrity cause niggas was at the concert full on turned around just recording him and not even watching the show

  • Dec 2, 2023

    Her Loss did 404k?

  • Dec 2, 2023

    21 has a few years on baby in terms of game relevance and seems more at the forefront at the moment. Anything could happen ig, but overall he seems to have more staying power to me.

  • 21 is hella boring though

  • Dec 3, 2023

    yak & yb are the best
    u look like a nerd posting numbers
