American rapper Lil Baby has always been a master of gambling, from gambling on himself in his career and cards to rolling the dice. On several occasions, the Atlanta rapper has risked it and played the odds.
Hopping on Lil Yachty’s A Safe Place podcast, Baby narrated the ordeal that made him quit the game of gambilng.
According to the rapper on the podcast, losing a fortune in two days brought his gambling habit under checks.
“$8 million,” he said when asked what’s the most he’s lost. “Like one day, probably like 40 hours straight, I lost like $8 million, $9 million. I made myself stop gambling.” added Baby.
Lil Baby is still making it rain in other ways though he might not seen in the casinos again.
Aligning on REFORM Alliance ventures and business dealings such as Mitchell & Ness and Fanatics, the PF4 rapper and Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin have become close friends over the years.
With photos from his famed “white parties” on July 4, Baby and Rubin have become the subject of many memes and social media fodder. Elsewhere talking to Yachty, Baby revealed the memes actually bother him.
“I don’t play with n—-s, period on no funny, weird s–t. I’m dapping Kuzma up and Mike’s happy to see me he run up on me. I got 10 other pictures,” Baby said. “We play like that. They white so they don’t really understand how I understand. Even when the picture came out before it went viral I told Mike, ‘I can’t have pictures like that.’”
He continued: “When that picture came out, I literally made Mike Rubin go to the security camera in his house and go to the footage the whole time. I ain’t even gonna post that s–t… Certain s–t, all that type s–t like that really bother me. How I grew up, certain s–t can’t be on your name.”
According to the rapper, Michael Rubin is a “super great influence” on his life. “We have the best conversations ever,” Baby added. “He damn near fascinated with the way I live, and I’m fascinated with the way he lives so we live in the middle.”
