Data Insight

Lil Baby writes on all fifteen tracks, and Zeus Negrete, the engineer who recorded every song on the record and co-mixed most of them, signs the writer line on six. Producers appear in their own writer lines throughout, so the two columns move together. Wheezy has the biggest share of the board at four songs, Krazy Mob and Juke Wong take three each, and Southside and Fizzle two. The rooms are small by trap standards: "F U 2X" has two writers, eight of the fifteen stop at four names or fewer, and only "By Myself", "Due 4a Win" and "Outfit" reach seven. Thirty-two producers still turn up across those fifteen songs, so the width sits in the beats rather than the pens. Bainz and Negrete mixed the album between them and Joe LaPorta mastered all of it, with outside mixers brought in on six songs: Jenso "JP" Plymouth on "I Promise", Jess Jackson on "Redbone", Patrizio "Teezio" Pigliapoco on "By Myself" and "So Sorry", 206DEREK on "Stuff", and Young Thug, credited as Jeffery Williams, on "Say Twin".

WHAM, short for Who Hard as Me, is Lil Baby's fourth studio album, released January 3, 2025 through Quality Control Music and Motown, with Glass Window Entertainment and Wolfpack also on the release. He cut it to fifteen tracks after the twenty-three of It's Only Me, telling Complex he had started going back to change words and shift his pitch instead of keeping whatever he recorded first. Young Thug, Future, GloRilla, Rylo Rodriguez, Rod Wave, Travis Scott and 21 Savage guest. It opened at number one on the Billboard 200 on 140,000 album-equivalent units, his fourth US chart-topper, and an extended version with four more songs followed four days later.

Frequently Asked Questions WHAM

What does WHAM stand for and when did it come out?
Who Hard as Me. It was released on January 3, 2025 through Quality Control Music and Motown, with Glass Window Entertainment and Wolfpack also on the release. It is the fourth and last entry in Lil Baby's Hard series, which started with his debut album Harder Than Ever in 2018.
How did WHAM chart?
It entered the Billboard 200 at number one for the chart week dated January 18, 2025, on 140,000 album-equivalent units that included 50,000 pure album sales, and its tracks drew 119.77 million official streams. That was his fourth US number-one album. It also topped the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and reached number four in Switzerland, number eight in Canada and number 12 in the UK.
Who are the guests on WHAM?
Young Thug and Future together on "Dum, Dumb, and Dumber", GloRilla on "Redbone", Rylo Rodriguez and Rod Wave on "By Myself", Travis Scott on "Stuff" and 21 Savage on "Outfit". Future returns on "99" on the extended version.
Who produced WHAM?
Thirty-two producers across fifteen tracks. Wheezy has four songs, Krazy Mob and Juke Wong three each, Southside and Fizzle two. Frankie Bash, London on da Track, DJ Champ, King LeeBoy, T9C, Andyr, Getro, Haze, BeatsByTaz and BlayzeBeats take the rest, and Zeus Negrete, who engineered the whole album, produced "Drugs Talkin".
What is on the extended version of WHAM?
Four more songs: "99" with Future, "Idol", "Running This Shit" and "My Shawty". Lil Baby put it on sale through the Motown website on January 7, 2025 and sent it to streaming services on January 10. The extended running time is 49:47.
How long is WHAM?
Fifteen tracks in 41:12. The shortest is "F U 2X" at 1:57 and the longest is "Dum, Dumb, and Dumber" at 3:47. Lil Baby told Complex he shortened the record because listeners were coming to it from TikTok and YouTube and were not sitting with long songs.
Were there singles from WHAM?
None. The album went out without a commercial single. Videos followed for "F U 2X" on release day and "By Myself" on January 6, and Lil Baby played "I Promise" on The Tonight Show on January 7.
Data note: Wikipedia prints legal names in the writer column and Genius prints stage names for the same tracks, and matching the two fixes the pairs: Nicholas Lee as Nick Lee, Aaron Cheung as Aaron Paris, London Holmes as London on da Track, Lucas DePante as Juke Wong, Wesley Glass as Wheezy, Joshua Luellen as Southside, Colin Franken as Frankie Bash, Joshua Goldenberg as Fizzle, Gloria Woods as GloRilla, Zeus Negrete as ZtheSavage, Leon Lightfoot III as King LeeBoy, Thomas Crimeni as T9C, Ryan Adams as Rylo Rodriguez, Rodarius Green as Rod Wave, Dwan Avery as DY Krazy of Krazy Mob, Corey Moon as DJ Moon, William Keating as Williskeating, Emil Videnski as Emildollaz, Bryson March as B. March, Oritseniraro Bemigho-Amorighoye as OB Mus1c, Jacques Webster II as Travis Scott, Tevin Blands as BeatsByTaz, Marko Andrej as Andyr, Peter Gogola as Getro, Shéyaa Abraham-Joseph as 21 Savage, Ethan Hayes as Haze, Joshua Taylor as Josh Taylor, Dylan Cleary-Krell as Dez Wright, Jayden Christodoulou as 9jay and Golenduhin Alekseevich as BlayzeBeats. Two tracks match only as sets: on "Due 4a Win" the four remaining legal names sit against Hurtboy AG, BeatsAintFree JG, That Boy Daymon and Elementry in an order no source states, and on "Outfit" Mateen Niknam and Nikita Murenets sit against AyoPeeb and Splited Stupid the same way, so both sets are recorded as printed rather than paired by guess. The Wikipedia track row for "Outfit" prints AyoPeeb as one producer while Genius shortens it to Peeb. Wikipedia limits Bainz's mixing to tracks one through fourteen; the Genius credit block for "Streets Colder" names him there too, and the per-track mixer lists follow Genius, which is the more granular of the two. Genius adds production credits Wikipedia does not carry: Dez Wright on "I Promise", and Juke Wong and Fizzle as additional production on "Stuff", so the producer lists follow Wikipedia. Mastering is on Genius only, which credits Joe LaPorta on every track. The album has no commercially released single, so nothing is recorded in the singles field.
