Introduction
Lil Bibby is an American rapper who has been a big part of the hip-hop scene since 2011. He was raised on the rough streets of southeast Chicago and was involved in the drug trade at age thirteen.

Early Life

His sister was a drug dealer but didn’t partake in the consumption of drugs, so she ended up raising Lil Bibby.

Personal life
Lil Bibby is 24 years old and stands only five feet tall. He’s got a snappy personality, and some say that he had to be that way because of his rough upbringing.
He also hasn’t left his family behind. In fact, his mother now lives with him. She no longer does drugs but does have some emotional issues due to her former drug use. She’s become more violent and harder to deal with.
Lil Bibby keeps his relationship status very quiet and doesn’t share much about his personal life. For a long time, people assumed that he was dating social media star, Johanie Taylor.
People were constantly seeing them in photos together, but they never acknowledged their relationship status.
In fact, in 2016, they said they were just friends. However, shortly thereafter, a video surfaced featuring the couple in bed snuggling. It was hard to deny the rumors after that, so they confirmed that they were dating.

Tips for success from Lil Bibby
- True love is about growing as a couple, learning about each other and never giving up. You’ll know when you have it.
- If they can leave you so easily, they were never meant to be for you. This applies to romantic relationships and even friendships. Don’t fight for someone to be in your life who is so quick to walk away.
- Make sure you taste your words before you spit them out. You can’t take back words, you can only say new ones to try to make things better. Something said in anger could literally ruin one of your relationships.
- The hardest thing in life that you can give up is something you thought was real. Know that it is for the best, though.
