ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE ME! Lil Baby Responds To A Fan Warning Him About Possible RICO Indictment In Atlanta

By Sara Donnellan Following the high-profile arrests of rappers Young Thug and Gunna, other Atlanta rappers have been placed on high-alert that they could be next, including Lil Baby, and one of his fans recently gave him a warning. While on Twitter, Lil Baby decided to respond to a fan who warned him that he could be the next Atlanta rapper indicted on RICO charges, but he didn’t seem too bothered by the possibility. Earlier this month, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis announced that two additional high-profile RICO arrests would be made in Atlanta within the next 60 days—which immediately had fans scrambling to figure out if their favorite rapper would be included. Many quickly put Lil Baby into the conversation, as fans have been tweeting him about the potential legal drama.Deciding to formally respond via Twitter, Lil Baby kept his comments straight to the point. When a fan tweeted, “Man you better be [looking out] for that RICO everybody keep talking about,” Lil Baby wrote “Only God can judge me.” He also revealed his current financial plans, writing “I’m trying to start an investment group for young black millionaires!! We can run the world if we play it right!!” As we previously reported, Young Thug and Gunna practically broke the Internet when they were both arrested in May, along with dozens of others, as part of a large-scale 88-count indictment on RICO charges. The two have remained in jail since then and will continue to stay until at least January 2023 when their trials begin.

A. Truth be told after I heard Soulja Boy’s Song Crank Dat Soulja Boy back in 2007 I liked it so much I wanted to start making music just like him but I couldn’t figure out what to rap about so I just started making up rhymes Q. Lil Vibe 215? How and when did you coined as such and how do you feel that title fits you?

A. It took me awhile to find an artist name for myself until I mixed it up with my personality which is goofy, silly, romantic and bold so I figured Lil Vibe would sound perfect for me and the 215 is the Philly area code but it kinda rhymes with Vibe Q. So, on to the new mega hit! How did it feel to actually reach a million plus streams on Spotify?

A. Aw man 1 millions streams on SoundCloud it’s a dream come true it really surprised me that it hit 1 million streams I literally cried because I put passion into my music and for people to listen to it it’s a blessing I’m so honored.

Q. I what would you say is the quote on quote secret recipe for your success as an artist?

A. Just give it your all when times get rough give it your all when times get good give it your all and when times get perfect GIVE IT YOUR ALL never give up on yourself because if you do people will be ashamed of you for giving up and not trying to reach your goals they will address you as a quitter Q. What was your favorite part about being a creative and making music?

A. Just the excitement of making a song you can feel in your heart and soul and then sharing it with the world just becoming someone’s role model because you changed that person’s life with one or more songs.

A. Know that I’m all for energy any energy you bring I’m for it call me the Energetic daredevil hero lol Q. What advice would you give those wanting to start their journey as an musician or entertainer?

A. There are times that you will feel like you are doing less and you’re not appreciated or you feel misunderstood, don’t quit use that as motivation, keep going don’t let things or people define who you are, only YOU know who you are, embrace it!

SC Native Drops New Ep

Green Pond has a hopeful rising star. David Givens, a singer-songwriter hailing from Green Pond, will debut his EP on March 20. An EP is an extended play record, and a musical recording that contains more tracks than a single, but is usually unqualified as an album or LP. As a pastor’s son, Givens began his music career at the age of two, singing in choirs, praise teams and working audiovisuals for church. Then at 14, he began writing songs. His career really began to take off in 2015. “I recorded 20 songs in 10 hours and ended up throwing it all away. The quality was poor,” said Givens. “It just wasn’t the right time.” At present, Givens has a single available called “Addiction,” which has tunes inspired by his Trinidad Tobago ancestry roots. He mixes pop, rhythm and blues, and electronic dance music. The song’s lyrics relate to trying to move on after heartache from a breakup or loss of a loved one. The story line involves a young man attempting to overcome the rejection of a lover and the addictive memories following the separation. The song is based on Givens’ own life, as he had difficulties conquering the overwhelming memories associated with the death of his sister. “Before I begin working on my music, I take time to pray, meditate and clear my mind so that I can be at my best. I try to expel any negativity,” said Givens. Originally, Legion — and later Mahoganee and Andre Amiger of Responsible Artistry Inc. in Beaufort — produced Given’s album “Electric Kingdom.” Part one is called “Innocence and Fallen,” the first of a series of what Givens calls episodes or stories. An exclusive song will come out with his new EP which will also feature a remix of one of his older songs with a major artist singing along with Givens. Inspired by Prince’s creativity, Dawn Richard’s shape-shifting, Celine Dion’s vocals, Shirley Caesar’s gospel sound and Janet Jackson’s pop and hip-hop, Givens developed his own style by mixing all the genres together to form his own. He has plans for a podcast called “The Earth According to David” where he hopes to feature a section called Indie Power, allowing singers and songwriters to perform for viewers who vote on their favorite acts. “I want to support fellow artists,” said Givens. “Artists need to work together and help each other out. The music scene is scarce except in Charleston, and black artists are divided. I want to change that and give artists a platform,” he said. Givens has come a long way from small town Green Pond. But he has never forgotten his roots and memories associated with the Lowcountry. His music is a blend of old and new with traces of every genre of music that has impacted his life. “I am constantly working to perfect my craft,” said Givens. “I have a lot of plans for the future, and I never want to forget that ‘I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me’.”

Feature Event

or more than three decades in October, the warm and welcoming Famously Hot South Carolina Pride Festival has taken place in Columbia. "We’ve started this thing at about 10,000 people and now we're up to almost 100,000 people," said President Jeff March whose been organizing the event for 11 years. While Kask and March say acceptance for the LGBTQ community has blossomed, they also agree the community is still facing challenges. "If something comes and threatens the equality we have and the equality we want, if that happens, we're gonna keep fighting just like we always have," said Kask. "We still have a lot more work to do here," said March. "That's why it's important for us to be loud and visible, to make sure everyone knows we're still here."March is stepping down after 11 years in the role. He said the next leader will be announced in November. "I’ve put Pride first for the last 11 years," said March. "I'm hoping to find that person that’s gonna do the same.”
