    In other hands, that much material could turn into a tedious slog, but Lil Baby manages to keep every moment fresh, finding a unique and unlikely midway between artistic inspiration and commercially viable entertainment.

    He’s trying to tell a story here, but he’s just not much of a storyteller—his bars keep the narrative going, but he doesn’t offer enough arresting imagery to make his scenes come to life.

    The stuffed effort could be Lil Baby's attempt to showcase his growth. But one mark of artistic maturity is exercising restraint — less is often more.

    My Turn succeeds as a showcase of Lil Baby’s talent, but it still feels flat on due to its excessive length, the fact that every song is almost exactly three minutes, and the way it recycles 808 patterns and harmonic structures.

    Despite being a record of two halves, ‘My Turn’ is an enjoyable collection of tracks for his loyal fans. He would do well, though, to stay away from the whiny sounds and rap with a little bit more clarity.

Baby keeps getting better lyrically with songs like Emotionally Scarred. The album opens with an great track in Get Ugly and has a handful of great tracks like Live off my Closet, Emotionally Scared, Sum 2 Prove, Forget That and Grace. The album also closes on another solid track in Solid. Too much of a reliance on features limits the albums ability to receive a higher score.… Full Review »

    Lil Baby is nothing more than an uninspired Young Thug rip-off minus all the things that make Thug entertaining. He has less good songs than aLil Baby is nothing more than an uninspired Young Thug rip-off minus all the things that make Thug entertaining. He has less good songs than a lot of artists have good ALBUMS. He should go ahead and retire from music and let his (slightly) better accomplice Gunna be the main ripoff Thugger.… Full Review »
