Lil Baby’s Las Vegas Casino Firearm Charges DROPPED!!

Clark County district attorney says they will no longer be pursuing charges against Lil Baby after he was arrested for carrying a concealed weapon without at permit at Wynn Las Vegas.

Lil Baby was staying at the MGM Grand at the time of his arrest when the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department were called. Casino security reportedly discovered that he was carrying a tan Glock via video surveillance.

The rapper does have a permit to carry in Georgia but not in the state of Nevada. At the time, he claimed he forgot the firearm was on him when he went to a nightclub the night prior.

“We’ll let the court record speak for itself,” Lil Baby’s attorney, Drew Findling told TMZ.

Lil Baby rose to prominence following the release of his 2017 mixtapes Harder than Hard and Too Hard, the former of which spawned his first Billboard Hot 100 entry with its lead single, “My Dawg.” He signed with Quality Control Music, an imprint of Motown and Capitol Records to release his debut studio album Harder Than Ever (2018), which peaked at number three on the Billboard 200 and was supported by the Billboard Hot 100-top ten single “Yes Indeed” (with Drake). He released two additional retail projects that same year: The collaborative mixtape Drip Harder with fellow Georgia-based rapper Gunna—which saw continued success with its singles “Drip Too Hard” and “Close Friends”—and his commercial mixtape Street Gossip, which peaked at number two on the Billboard 200.
