Over the weekend, Lil Baby spoke to a crowd gathered to pay their respects to 16-year-old Bre'Asia Powell, who was tragically gunned down outside of Benjamin E. Mays High School following graduation on May 28.
Lil Baby spoke about the importance of making a change amid the recent uptick in gun violence, as he stated, "What I do want to say to the youth, to like a younger generation, and I’m saying it as a ‘we,’ because I’m with y’all, we gotta change."
Lil Baby added, "A lot of time when people talk it’s more so like on the males, but I’m speaking for the males and the females. The females make the young males think this and that is cool when it’s not. So, the young boys doing this and that, and proving to the girls that they cool when all of it, in the end, it’s not cool. The same girls, they ain’t gon’ be with you, they gon’ be with the opps when you go to jail. I’m only here to not speak but like she said, we gotta come up with a plan and I’m here to help the plan."
