Lil Gotit — Hood Baby 2

2018’s Hood Baby put Lil Gotit on the map as one of Atlanta’s most promising and eccentric rappers in the lineage of Young Thug and his older brother Lil Keed. While he’s released three full-length projects (Crazy But It’s True, The Real Goat, Superstar Creature) in the year and a half since, fans have been clamoring for Hood Baby 2, the sequel to his breakout tape. Out today via Alamo Records, HB2 is his best outing to date, filled with talk of Off-White and shopping sprees at Barney's (RIP) and boasting features from ATL stalwarts Future, Gunna, Lil Yachty, and Keed.
