Lil Baby Responds To Kanye West's Claim About Rejecting A Collab

Lil Baby was tossed into the mix of Kanye West's Twitter rant when the hip-hop titan revealed that the former turned him down for a collaboration.

In addition to calling out wife Kim Kardashian and a string of other revelations, West revealed that Baby is none other than his favorite rapper, but the star has refused to work with him. "Lil baby my favorite rapper but won’t do a song wit me," he said during Tuesday’s rant. When it comes to Lil Baby, the rapper, 25, took to the social media platform to admit he had no idea that West wanted to work with him. "Nobody told me ye was trying to get me on a song. That's fucced up," he wrote. In a follow-up message, he tagged ‘Ye and made his point clear and concise: "Nobody told me."

Lil Baby is currently enjoying a wave of positive press. Not only is he Rolling Stone's latest cover star for their August issue, but the Quality Control signee's recent protest anthem "The Bigger Picture" peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and he was also deemed a favorite by none other than Lil Wayne.

During his appearance on the All The Smoke, Weezy recalled his experience with the Atlanta MC. "I was in a session with him before. He heard a beat come on out of the blue that I was working on. It was an uptempo beat. It was probably a feature for somebody. Baby was like 'I couldn't even begin to rap on no s**t like that,'" he told hosts Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson. "After that session, I done heard two or three songs like that come out that he done did. I was like 'See, he went right back and figured it out.'"
