When I met him in New York at the tail end of a week in December, he was in fine spirits despite an unending rain that has made his traversing of Manhattan less than ideal. 19-year-old Chicago rapper Lil Bibby has not yet grown out of the lil: though he speaks with the slow drawl of an older man who might spend his days sitting prominently in a rocking chair, Bibby still has a baby face. ![]()
