Starting 2025 with a statement, Lil Baby has unleashed his highly-anticipated project WHAM, a release he began hinting at late last year. The album sees one of hip-hop’s brightest stars assembling an A-list roster of collaborators for a bold, unapologetic offering.
While much of 2024’s rap landscape was marked by high-profile feuds, Lil Baby stayed locked in the studio. The result is WHAM—short for “Who As Hot As Me”—a 15-track showcase of signature Atlanta flair and a confident assertion of his dominance in the rap game.
The guest list is stacked, with standout contributions from Young Thug, marking his first verse since his release from jail late last year, as well as heavyweights like Travis Scott and 21 Savage. The latter’s verse has already sparked speculation, with fans wondering if he aimed subtle shots at Kendrick Lamar.
With WHAM, Lil Baby kicks off the year with a major statement, setting a high bar for what’s to come in 2025.
Thugger wastes no time reclaiming his spot in the game. His verse on WHAM blends reflective bars with his signature melodic flow, addressing his time behind bars and his unwavering hustle. Fans have been waiting for this moment, and he didn’t disappoint.
