Lil Baby has had one of the best years in his career thus far in 2020. His album, My Turn, is one of the highest-selling albums this year, even with people stuck in their homes 24/7 over the past 9 months.

His single, “The Bigger Picture” tackled social issues in a genuine, authentic way at the peak of the George Floyd protests. According to TMZ, Lil Baby used the proceeds from this song to throw a surprise party for Floyd’s daughter, Gianna, in Atlanta.

Video from the bash shows a huge playroom decked out with tons of colorful balloons, birthday signs and a bunch of food. The venue looks pretty big, it’s at least 2 stories, and there are other areas where Gianna and the girls are getting their hair done, plus manicures and foot spas.

Lil Baby stopped to take a couple pictures with the birthday girl … and Gianna says she was totally surprised. LB’s not the only celeb in attendance showing love to George’s little girl — former NBA star Stephen Jackson is there too. Remember, Stephen made a promise to George’s family to do everything he can to be like a father figure to Gianna.

Jackson, who was super close to Floyd and often called him his “twin,” promised to take care of Gianna and her family following his tragic passing.

“I think I adopted another child, God put me into this position,” shared the retired NBA star during an interview with Forbes. “I’m going to do the best that I can.”

The former Golden State Warriors player also revealed that he is working to advocate for social justice across the country in light of Floyd’s death.

“I have dedicated my life to going to all 50 states and visiting areas that need resources and letting them know they have a voice,” he says. “When I went to Minnesota to speak up for my brother, I inherited other people’s pain, who lost loved ones to police brutality and racism or who do not have a voice to speak.”

Gianna’s mother Roxie Washington expressed her gratitude towards Lil Baby for supporting Gianna during this “difficult time.”

“This is a very difficult time for my daughter, so we’re very grateful that our extended family is creating such a special experience for Gianna on her first birthday without her father,” she shared.

Very dope of Lil Baby to throw her a birthday party that she will never forget, especially doing it with the funds he made from speaking on the social climate. Click the next page to see a few images from the party.
