Lil Baby didn't win in any of the six categories he was nominated for at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards.
But he did present an award and cut a promo for the show.
"What's up, it's Lil Baby here. Tune in to the Billboard Music Awards to see me present the award for Top 100 song presented by Rockstar Energy," Baby said.
Some folks are arguing that Baby sounded "gentrified" in the promo.
Do you fault Baby for whipping out his court voice when he plugs for network TV?
