Untrapped: the story of lil baby trailer

It is a very interesting story, and I like that his lyrics tell a real story. Honestly, I have always turned the station when I hear his music, but the only reason is that they Autotune his voice. Very in depth story that you really need to hear to understand where he's coming from. One thing that really stood out to me was his wisdom and blunted emotions toward death around him, but the raw fear he expresses toward life and how one choice, past or future, could profoundly change everything. The story not only shows his transformation, but really makes it so clear that he had some truly caring people around him that carried him until he could stand on his own, so to speak. Very good. The Biden clip, saying to lock them all up, was a surprise to see, otherwise there is no "agenda". Might be a little harder for them to tell black people how to vote after throwing that in.

Lil Baby has shared the trailer for his new documentary – Untrapped: The Story of Lil Baby. Check it out below.

The film charts the rapper’s rise from someone who never dreamed of rapping to his current status as a generation-defining rap artist. The film will arrive on Amazon Prime on August 26.

In the trailer, which is directed by Karam Gill, Drake can be seen praising the rapper. “Lil Baby has already cemented himself as a super important part of this generation,” Drake says in the clip. “He’s putting distance between himself and other people. He’ll just continue to evolve — this guy’s the truth.”

The clip explores Lil Baby’s rise to stardom, especially how the rapper embraced music after leaving prison. Part of the trailer sees Lil Baby reflecting on the US justice system too.
“After I got locked up again, my perspective changed,” Baby says in the clip. “America has a system in place, and it’s designed for us to fail. It’s a trap. I couldn’t go back to prison. I became an artist with something to say and people to stand for.”
Untrapped premiered earlier this year at the Tribeca Film Festival – watch the trailer below:

Back in May, Drake appeared on stage during Lil Baby‘s set at a Montreal festival.

Lil Baby was performing in Canadal, when Drake joined him on stage to play their collaboration ‘Wants and Needs’.

As footage shows, Drake then remained on stage to play a number of tracks on his own including ‘Nonstop’, ‘Headlines’, ‘Girls Want Girls’, ‘Laugh Now Cry Later’ and more.

Lil Baby released ‘Dark Mode’ back in May, which followed on from three new singles in April: ‘Right On’ and ‘In A Minute’ on April 8, and ‘Frozen’ on April 29. Earlier this year, the rapper featured on two songs with Nicki Minaj – ‘Do We Have A Problem?’ and ‘Bussin’ – as well as Hylan Starr’s ‘Don’t Make Me Beg’ and Rob49’s ‘Vulture Island V2’.

He also dropped a remix of Ed Sheeran’s ‘2step’ earlier this year, with all royalties from the record being donated to the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.

The documentary is out August 26.

In a new teaser for the forthcoming Amazon Prime Video documentary Untrapped, Lil Baby reflects on the systematic abuses that Black people in this country face every day. The trailer premiered exclusively on Rolling Stone.

Baby has been one of the world’s most impactful artists since his first release in 2017. Untrapped tells his story, and details his meteoric rise to become the most dominant name in the rap game. The film has received its first trailer, which is out now.

While still a teenager, Baby—known to friends and family as Dominique Armani Jones—was one of the most notorious figures in the streets of West Atlanta, before he was arrested and sent to prison. After his release in 2016, he faced a hard choice: Return to the fast money of the streets, or take a chance that his charisma and untested talent could bring him success as a rapper.

In 2020, his second album, My Turn, was the year’s top seller across all genres of music. Today, Lil Baby is a devoted father to his two young boys and a powerful voice in the fight for racial justice and police reform. Untrapped: The Story of Lil Baby chronicles the astonishing rise of a singular artist and activist, and explores the systemic oppression that keeps far too many people of color from participating in the American Dream.

“I’m blessed to be able to tell my story and have people care to hear it,” said Dominique “Lil Baby” Jones. “This film is a real look into my journey, and if it inspires even one person to believe that they can get through hard stuff and dare to follow a dream, then it was worth every penny spent and hour worked. My story is many people’s story and I’m excited to share it.”

Listen to the best of Lil Baby on Apple Music and Spotify.
