BABY T’s fourth album, "40," sits securely in the latter camp. At slightly over 32 minutes, this 11-cut project isn’t so much a playlist as a filmic trek, a brutally honest, searching, defiant one that resonates for after the last musical note hangs in the air.
Already a three-time World Entertainment Awards (WEA) nominee, BABY T turns "40" with the wisdom only gained by an artist who has been there, done that, and has the story to match the sound.
Every song on the album features a different hue of BABY T’s artistry. “Things About To Change” paves the way for change, providing an urgency and hopefulness in its verses. “Greed” provides an unfiltered and unsparing view of the hunger and hustle of life today, in which ambition frequently clobbers morality. Then there’s “Dem Ones,” a brash anthem that champions loyalty and cultural pride, serving as a stark reminder of where the foundation of this movement really began.
But "40" isn’t only those standout singles. The album plays as an entire statement, one that’s meant to be heard from start to finish. There’s a pulse to the production, a cinematic thread that connects every song, as if BABY T is narrating a film in real time. Each verse feels lived-in, every hook intended to stick.
At "40," BABY T releases an album so much as builds a world. It’s introspective, robust, and poised to join the canon of hip-hop projects that matter for those in search of an album that combines storytelling, cultural gravitas, and the kind of beats that never go out of style. "40" of BABY T’s is built for longevity.
