The rapper is trending after a clip of him happily throwing up peace signs while closing out the show with the cast went viral.

He made his Saturday Night Live solo debut over the weekend, and people can't stop talking about Lil Baby. The Georgia rapper has only reached new heights as his career progresses. After having one monumental year after another, it's hard to believe this was his first time flying solo on the longstanding sketch comedy series.

Although his performances of "California Breeze" and "Forever" were his highlights, Baby's reactions during the closing credits were what went viral.

As they usually do, SNL brought out the cast along with host Michael B. Jordan. The Rap star was seen with a wide grin on his face as he enjoyed his appearance on the show. He threw up several peace signs to the camera and the cast behind him.

At one point, he made sure to make a certain family member feel extra special as he mouthed, "Hi, mom!"

Even Jordan took a moment to smile and laugh with Baby as they closed out another successful episode.
