Lil Baby was given his own day in Atlanta last month, so now November 13 is known as Dominique “Lil Baby” Jones Day.

The 28-year-old spoke about the honor over the weekend with Billboard, while also calling his city the epicenter of Hip Hop culture.

"I will definitely give a big, big shout out to Atlanta. The whole city," said Lil Baby, who Benzino recently called this generation's Tupac Shakur. "I definitely appreciate them for giving me recognition like that ... As far as culture, I feel like I been feeling. Atlanta is like the ruler of the culture as far as Hip Hop … It hasn’t been a new artist in like the last two or three years that really just emerged. But for the most part, I feel like Atlanta is still the ruler of Hip Hop’s core of culture."

Are you in agreement?
