International & Domestic Audience Sizes Across Active Digital Platforms

There are some players in this industry who have the nerve to refer to him as a “one-hit-wonder”. And you’d be completely mistaken to silo this immensely gifted & hard-working creative artist. Underestimate his capabilities at your peril. Baby Boy Da Prince is about to make a comeback into the industry, the likes of which have yet to be seen. In 2024, he has released a new single track “Big Chevy” and another titled “Candle Light”. He also plans to release a new project titled “Resurrection: The Mixtape” later this year.

In the short term, our team at Hum of the Earth Studios remains focused on booking and promotion support for BBDP as he seeks to re-enter and revive the regional/national festival circuit. This time around, and for the first time ever, BBDP will begin working with members of The Mango Jam to produce a live-band setting for upcoming shows. More information to come. Stay tuned!

Hailing from New Orleans, Baby Boy da Prince followed in the footsteps of his city's two major camps, No Limit and Cash Money Records. His excursion into the rap game officially began when he opened in concert for No Limit recording artist Choppa. After signing with the independent label Extreme Entertainment around 2004 and opening for more popular acts like 50 Cent and Juvenile, he was slowly gathering steam to make his way to the top. However, in 2005 the disastrous Hurricane Katrina literally turned his world upside down, and he barely survived the storm. Despite the circumstances, he continued his agenda just as before and created the song "The Way I Live." The track with its lazy hook became a number one hit in New Orleans while the city was still rebuilding.

Extreme Entertainment then inked a distribution deal with Universal Republic for Baby Boy's debut, Across the Water, which arrived on shelves in March 2007.

In the course of a year, New Orleans’ rapper Baby Boy Da Prince went from living in a FEMA trailer in the aftermath of huricane Katrina to being one of pop rap’s hottest new superstar. His breakthrough hit, “The Way I Live” is a slow-cooked look at the life on the streets. The song eschews the normal nihilism associated with the subject and instead paints a more modest and objective portrait of the various trials and tribulations of one “young little dude”. The track is hopeful, modest and appealing.

Baby Boy got his start at the age of 16 while touring with New Orleans’ rappers Turk and Chopper. Though it would be a half-decade before he would join their ranks as a rap superstar, the experience taught hm the ins and outs of the rap industry.
