New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Today Grammy-nominated artist
Lil Baby taps NBA star Ja Morant to curate his Spotify, Apple, Amazon, Tidal,
Pandora & SoundCloud playlists with his favorite tunes. Still riding high on his chart-topping album My Turn (Quality Control
Music / Wolfpack Global / Motown Records),
Lil Baby will be teaming up with some of his favorite athletes to curate songs that represent their own "
My Turn" moment.
First up, is breakout NBA star Ja Morant. Mutual fans of each other, Baby chose Morant to be the first to kick off the takeovers as both have taken over in their respective fields, quietly and quickly, with "creative flair and keen vision who can't go fast enough" (Sports Illustrated).
Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant was voted the unanimous 2019-20 NBA Rookie of the Year in a poll of 70 eligible voters conducted by ESPN. Morant was the only rookie to appear on all 70 ballots from beat writers around the NBA to national and international reporters. His amazing individual play, durability, and efforts in making the Grizzlies one of the biggest surprise successes of the season all contributed to the voting results.
Currently on the cover of SLAM magazine, Ja Morant is an American professional basketball player for the
Memphis Grizzlies of the
National Basketball Association (NBA). He played college basketball for the Murray
State Racers, where he was a consensus first-team All-American as a sophomore in 2019. He was selected by the Grizzlies with the second overall pick in the 2019 NBA draft. As of February 2020, Morant is leading rookies in assists per game with 7.1 assists per game while shooting 49.3%. On February 9, 2020, Morant scored his first career triple double in a 106-99 win over the Washington Wizards.
Lil Baby released his chart-topping album My Turn (Quality Control
Music / Wolfpack Global / Motown Records) in February, 2020, hitting #1 on The Billboard 200 where it has not left the Top 5 in 11 weeks. With more than two billion streams on the platinum release, the album pushes Lil Baby's career-streaming total to an incredible 14 billion+ global streams.
