Lil Durk made a big deal out of the statement in September that Hip Hop isn’t what it “used to be.” When the “3 Headed Goat” rapper said those things, they came as a surprise, especially since he and other artists from Chicago’s drill era were once seen as outsiders in the genre.

During the Oct. 1 episode of “7PM in Brooklyn” with Carmelo Anthony and Kid Mero, Fabolous talked about the subject. His question was, “What did it used to be?” “Hip Hop is what it is.” It can’t be what it used to be because everyone talks about a different time when it “used to be,” even Lil Durk.

The New York artist went on, “One of the things I love and respect about Durk is that he was able to move with the times and find the new Lil Durk and keep going.” “I do not believe there is a ‘used to be.'” Hip Hop is going to change over time. It has changed since it first came out in the 1980s or 1970s.

“It’s also a business now,” Fabolous said, talking about how streaming, brand partnerships, and record labels have changed things. “At one point, it was just something we did and listened to.” It is now a billion-dollar business that needs to be handled with care.

Durk and Fabolous worked together before on the 2019 movie Summertime Shootout 3: Coldest Summer Ever, on the song “Cap.” Fans haven’t heard a duet from the two since then, which is too bad.A possible tracklist for Durk’s Love Songs For The Streets 3 showed up online on Tuesday as well. DJ Akademiks shared a picture that shows the project might include Lil Baby, Rod Wave, Future, and Morgan Wallen, who have all worked with DJ Akademiks before.

In the past few months, the Grammy winner put out “Turn Up A Notch” and “Went Hollywood For A Year.” It’s also worth noting that Adin Ross’ livestream in September showed a sneak peek of a record that might be called “Discontinuing Wockhardt.”
