Lil Baby Discourages Young People From Street Life in New Interview

Lil Baby recently sat down with Atlanta's Hot 107.9 for an interview and encouraged young people to avoid street life.

"I always hung around n***as way older than me so I done seen it all," he said. "N***as who made it, n***as who didn't make it and got killed, n***as that went to jail. Ever since I been young, I just watch and put what I put with me and became me ... I advise all my lil bros like, yeah, y'all go to school. That sh*t matter ... 'Cause if you do something wrong, you gotta be doin' something right. You get locked up and go to them judges and [tell] them folks like, 'I gotta go to school,' they'll spare you. They'll be more lenient. But when it's like, oh, you don't go to school? You ain't got no job? I got something for you."

The "Woah" rapper also said being from the hood doesn't mean that one can't be successful.

"That ain't no excuse," he stated. "It's basically what you wanna do. I wanted to run the streets so you know where that sh*t landed me, being in jail. It ain't it's all good, flashy. That sh*t be hard."
