The empowering record is the first collaboration between Lil Baby and Franklin. It peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Gospel Songs chart and was performed for the first time live at the 2021 BET Awards last month. “We Win” falls in line with Lil Baby’s 2020 breakout year, and he’s feeling pretty good about it. 

He’s feeling so good that the Atlanta native made a bold claim about his status in Hip Hop. On “5500 Degrees” off EST Gee’s Bigger Than Life or Death, Lil Baby called himself the Lil Wayne of this current rap generation.

“I’m going too crazy, I’m the Wayne of this new generation,” he raps. “N-ggas fugazi, they can’t fuck with us no type of ways, these n-ggas too lazy/I’m cut from a different type of cloth, I don’t know who raised’ em/Every time I pop out all the women screaming, ‘Woo, baby.’”
