Lil Baby recently took a moment to clear the air about the memes that have often centered around him and his friends, Michael Rubin and James Harden. During his appearance on Lil Yachty’s A Safe Place podcast, the rapper revealed how these online jokes and false narratives have truly affected him.
“I don’t play certain types of games,” he began. “I don’t play with n***s period, on no funny weird sht.” His words were clear: he doesn’t tolerate the type of humor that pokes fun at his relationships with close friends.
One instance he addressed was the viral photo of him and Michael Rubin at one of the Fanatics CEO’s annual white parties. “Even when the picture came out before it went viral, I talked to him like ‘Mike, I can’t have pictures like that even though me and you playing,'” Lil Baby explained. “It’s a hundred people at the party, we’re in the middle of a hundred people. There’s nothing weird we could be doing at the party with all these people watching us.”
For Lil Baby, it’s not just about clearing up misconceptions—it’s about protecting his reputation and making sure people understand the real context behind the images and memes. “The narrative that’s being painted just ain’t right,” he added, emphasizing that the situation isn’t as it may seem online.
