Lil Durk doesn’t like how things are going. Even though he has a Grammy, he believes that hip hop is in a bad state. This was made clear on September 6. He went on Twitter to complain about the subject and what’s wrong with it. “Hip hop ain’t what it used to be…,” he told us. It wasn’t clear to him why or how the genre had let him down, but it already had. Lil Durk answer? To put out some new music. After giving his hot take, the rapper said on Instagram that he wants to take over the rest of 2024.

Lil Durk went on Instagram to let people know that new music is coming soon. The rapper put together a plan while recording himself listening to a song that hadn’t been released yet. Reading “F*ck numbers,” it said. “Feed the streets… Smurk back hungry.” This is “Discontinuing Wockhardt,” the Drake and Adin Ross song that Ross teased a few days ago. While criticizing the rap game, Lil Durk joined forces with Drake for a new song. This seems a bit unfair, but Lil Durk stuck to his principles. There’s something not right with him, and he thinks he can fix it.

Over the years, Lil Durk has been open about how he feels. He has spoken out in the past, and he has also been honest about his time in therapy. In an interview with Complex, he talked about the second one. He said, “I got a therapist, so I deal with things differently.” “You know, it doesn’t have to be I’m going to do all these drugs or get my feelings out this way.” I have my family, my girlfriend, a doctor, my kids, and the studio.

Lil Durk is right to say some bad things about the genre, even if he doesn’t say much more. In 2024, there’s been a general lack of trust in hip hop. It looks like it’s hard to move units if your name isn’t Drake, Kendrick Lamar, or Travis Scott. In the past few months, this happened to Mustard and YG. Big Sean’s much-anticipated comeback record just came out, but it sucked in its first week of sales. Durk is just saying what a lot of people have been thinking. Is he using this emotion to get people excited about his new music? Yes. That’s just how the game works.
