Baby Covers XXL Mag, Talks Giving Lil Wayne Young Money & More

Baby is covering the June 2011 issue of XXL. Peep what he says about allowing Lil Wayne to become president of Young Money.  “Honestly, I gave him the floor. He wanted it. I been with him since he was seven years old, eight years old. I been in his life all of his life, and he was like, ‘Let me handle, it.’ At the time, me as an artist, losing my sister and everything I was going through personally, I was just like, ‘Go ahead, I’ma just support what you gon’ do. You can handle it.’ And I took a step back. Probably was the smartest move I ever made in my life was to let him go ‘head.”

Baby also talks the competitive nature of the rap game. “When I look around, through my years and my time, you know the game, it was a lot in the field, a lot of people doing it,” he says. “And I look around, and it’s like, where the fuck did everybody go? I ain’t never understood that, but the game like that sometimes, that muthafucka’s gon’ keep ya or it’s gon’ leave ya. It’s all on you.” Peep the full story here.
