Skilla Baby Breaks Down The Price of Fame
Detroit's Skilla Baby opens up about what it takes to make it in this game.

Skilla Baby sat down to talk shop about his new album, and he's not holding back on what goes into building something real in this industry. The Detroit rapper is putting his whole story on wax—the cost, the grind, the choices you gotta make when the world starts watching.
From the streets to the booth, Skilla's been moving deliberately. He's not one of those cats rushing out projects just to stay in the timeline. This one's deliberate. The album's called The Price of Fame for a reason—dude's reflecting on what this whole thing actually costs you. The attention, the pressure, the politics. It's all there.
Skilla's one of those voices that doesn't get as much national shine as he deserves, but anybody who's been paying attention to the Midwest knows he's been consistent. Real production choices, real bars, real perspective. This project looks like another step forward for him.
