Growing up on the Southside of Chicago, Lil Durk has suffered through numerous tragic losses in his life while on the road to stardom as a rapper.
Durkio would often name-drop the dead in lyrics throughout his career, but after some deep reflecting on losing those closest to him such as his brother DThang and protégé King Von, he won’t be doing it any longer on tracks or while performing.
With Lil Durk’s rise to mainstream stardom, his lyrics are only being even more closely eyed by the masses, which can exacerbate situations leading to violence.
“I’m not mentioning the dead in my songs no more or performing songs with they name in it…… – big Smurk,” he wrote. “Von left us Dthang left us and I was lost.”
“I’m done name dropping the dead after my deluxe ….in songs only tho,” Lil Durk tweeted.
Akademiks reposted the Chicago native’s latest pledge and, of course, 6ix9ine hopped into the comment section with smoke for Lil Durk.

“This man scared after they shot his brother in the head don’t stop now,” the rainbow-haired rapper said.
In an interview with Wack 100 on Akademiks’ new podcast, 6ix9ine expressed his desire to fight Lil Durk and asked Wack to set up the brawl with no phones or cameras.
“Before you leave Miami, you call Durk and get him in the same room as me, make it happen,” he screamed. “You got the phone right there.”

Lil Durk is who Nas was describing in Accident Murderer song. Durk went on missions but never pulled no trigger . Had ppl doing it for him but he act like he did it then brag about it in his songs and then who paid for it Nuskii then Von all because of Durk being a loud mouth accident murderer
this dude is the definiton of a victim.
A fan of any growth, no matter how ignorant you/we once were. Late, maybe too late but better than never. Rest In Peace to all the fallen, on all sides.
“LIL DURK VOWS TO STOP RAPPING”…… When i read that I got excited…. But unfortunately the headline kept going.
To be honest, we all sin so much that we still have time to shit on Durk. Let us show him love and let him know he’s doing the right thing. Life is 5 mins, he trying to do better….
People don’t realize that is what makes Chiraq drill music, one of the main components is dissing the dead opps. Basically, Durk is trying to distant herself his old ways but that also means his roots in Chi style rapping.
He lame af. Don’t announce you’re going to do it. Just do it jackass. What a cuck
