Lil Baby Delivers “Redbone” Music Video, Keeps Fans Excited After WHAM’s Success
Lil Baby has proven once again that he knows exactly what his fans want. After delivering one of the most relentless albums of his career with WHAM, the rapper has kept the momentum going despite mixed critical reactions. The album continues to perform well, with Lil Baby still rolling out visuals to keep the hype alive. Instead of immediately following up WHAM with his highly anticipated project Dominique, the rapper has decided to focus on fan favorites from WHAM, and “Redbone” is certainly a standout.
The track, which features Memphis rapper GloRilla, has the perfect summer feel, with a splashy, synth-heavy trap instrumental that fits seamlessly into the album’s overall vibe. The music video takes those summer vibes to the next level, bringing the energy of the song to life through vibrant visuals. Lil Baby can be seen walking through a luxurious mansion, shirtless, surrounded by women in bikinis, and living the party life. The setting matches the mood of the song, amplifying its carefree and laid-back feel.
What makes the video truly stand out, however, is the inclusion of GloRilla’s feature. While she wasn’t on set for the rest of the video, her scenes provide a nice contrast to the mansion party atmosphere. The video pairs the two artists against a black backdrop, bathed in neon red lights, with a fun editing trick that applies the same light to the partygoers at the mansion. It’s a classic technique that helps elevate the guest feature, giving both Lil Baby and GloRilla a moment to shine.
The collaboration between the two artists is poised to get even more attention as summer approaches. Lil Baby and GloRilla are both highly popular in their respective fields, making “Redbone” an easy choice for repeat spins and a favorite among fans. As the weather heats up, this track feels like it’s set to be the soundtrack for many summer nights.
In addition to the new video, “Redbone” marks Lil Baby’s first release since a bizarre rumor about his arrest surfaced online. The rapper was falsely linked to a tragic incident involving the deaths of two teens in 2024, and rumors spread that he was in federal custody. Lil Baby quickly took to Instagram to clarify the situation, reassuring fans that he was safe, sound, and free. “Thanks for all the concerns,” he wrote, “Please don’t be misinformed by fake news!!”
As Lil Baby continues to roll out visuals from WHAM and prepares for his upcoming world tour, fans are eagerly awaiting what’s next. But for now, “Redbone” stands as a testament to the rapper’s ability to deliver the perfect anthem for any season. With the combination of infectious beats, a strong feature from GloRilla, and a music video that enhances the song’s energy, it’s clear that Lil Baby is keeping the heat up as the summer approaches.
