Early Life

Dominique Armani Jones, better known as Lil Baby, was born on December 3, 1994, in Atlanta. Lil Baby’s father abandoned the family when he was just 2 years old, and his mother brought him up on her alone. His two sisters were a big part of his upbringing, and he left Booker T. Washington High School after his freshman year. Lil Baby was arrested in 2012 on multiple counts, including possession with the intent to sell.

When his attorney suggested he take a plea agreement of two years probation, Lil Baby sought a new attorney and had him placed in a program that would keep him in custody for only one. After getting into a confrontation with another inmate who made racist comments while they were both participating in this program, Lil Baby was forced to complete the full term of his original conviction. Two years apart, he was arrested twice for marijuana-related offenses: possession in 2013 and possession with intent to sell in 2014. After spending two years behind bars, Lil Baby launched his rap career with the help of Quality Control Music and his own label, 4PF (4 Pockets Full).
