Lil Baby is one of the few emcees who can say that every rapper–older and younger–has him on their favorite rapper list. He has had an amazing past 12 months elevating himself to the top of the rap game. Baby has had hit after hit climb up the charts and he’s slowly becoming every artists’ go-to rapper for features. Plus, his album, My Turn is one of the highest-selling albums of the year. Following its release in February, Lil Baby’s sophomore album sold nearly 200,000 units, quickly catapulting the rapper to hit Number 1 on the Billboard 200 charts.

His critically acclaimed album has grown popular for cuts such as his multi-platinum selling single “Woah” along with “We Paid” featuring 42 Dugg. It also includes heavy assists from Gunna, Lil Uzi Vert, Young Thug, and Future.

During the George Floyd protests, his track “The Bigger Picture” became the soundtrack, while “We Paid” is one of the most viewed videos on Youtube. For his birthday, it’s only right he celebrate his massive success and all of the hard work he put in.

For the occasion, he hosted several parties–but his party that included a store set-up from Icebox might have just taken the cake. Famed jewelry brand ICEBOX cleaned jewelry for all the guests in attendance and also had their shop open for people to cop new ice…and if that isn’t as lavish as it gets, we don’t know what is. Not only that, but the gifts he received from his friends–from watches to honey buns, to $100K–really made the event something he will never forget.

Everyone from Young Thug, 21 Savage, to Meek Mill and James Harden were in attendance.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines. Trump & Xi Meet About US TikTok’s Next Chapter And then there’s TikTok. After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations. According to BBC, the plan reportedly hands control to a group of U.S. investors, sidestepping a shutdown. Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
