Atlanta rapper Lil Baby releases new album Fresh with local celebration

Atlanta rapper Lil Baby released his fifth studio album, Fresh, on November 6, according to thebeatgulfcoast.iheart.com. The album includes 17 tracks with guest appearances from fellow Atlanta artists Future, Young Thug, and Rylo Rodriguez.

The lead single from Fresh, titled Dead Fresh and produced by Pharrell Williams, reached number 18 on the Billboard Hot 100, as reported by thebeatgulfcoast.iheart.com. Lil Baby’s previous album WHAM debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 in January 2025.

Lil Baby took a more hands-on approach in the studio for Fresh, collaborating directly with producers rather than selecting beats remotely, thebeatgulfcoast.iheart.com noted. The album features songs like Top Uh It, Mr. Do Something, and Life Of the Party (L.O.T.P).

To celebrate the album release, Lil Baby partnered with Atlanta wings restaurant American Deli for a special promotion giving away free “WHAM Wings” to the first 500 fans at a pop-up event on November 7, according to wiznation.com. He will also hold his annual Fresh Prince of Atlanta Birthday Celebration on December 5 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta.

The physical edition of Fresh includes a track swap replacing From the Back with Coast 2 Coast featuring Bally Baby and Fatt Smaxk, as reported by thebeatgulfcoast.iheart.com. The album is available on all major streaming platforms and physical copies can be purchased with merchandise bundles.
