Rolling Stone is an American monthly magazine that focuses on music, politics, and popular culture. It was founded in 1967 by Jann Wenner and the music critic Ralph J. Gleason.
American rapper Lil Baby appeared on the cover of their August 2020 issue, where it details his origin story, background on the record "The Bigger Picture," and includes commentary from Coach K. He was interviewed by Charles Holmes, who flew out to Atlanta on June 27, 2020, and called it an "intense" but "right" time to visit, where Rayshard Brooks was recently murdered at the hands of Atlanta Police Department (APD) officer Garrett Rolfe.[1] Photography was provided by Diwang Valdez at Wendy's in Peoplestown on June 28, 2020, the very place where Brooks was shot. Lil Baby was also pictured at Treehhouse Studios.[2]
