Lil Durk has always been a supporter of Chicago ever since he began his business. Cook County, Illinois, recently gave him an award for his work in the community with his Neighborhood Heroes Foundation. The Grammy Award-winning rapper was given many city keys, including ones to the Village of Broadview and the Village of Bellwood.

In the last few years, the self-proclaimed “Voice of the Trenches” has won a lot of awards, and this is the latest one. “Use everyday Heroes who are taking the lead to make positive change in the lives of people in under-resourced neighborhoods across the nation,” that’s what his foundation’s mission statement says.

One fan said, “Okay, nah. They’re going to keep giving these rappers the keys to the city.” After that, you take them back. “This is the current state of the community in Chicagoland,” said someone else. After supporting this person, they can’t complain about the streets or the bad stuff that happens on the block. So sad.”Many people were happy that the emcee’s work in the community was honored, but some can’t get past the fact that his music seems to talk about violence and gang culture. But Durk has been adamant about how his life has changed and how much he has grown over the last few years. He has been in the news lately because he helped several people, including his best friends, become Muslims.

The talented Chicago-raised rapper’s subjects changed a lot after working with J. Cole on the Grammy-winning song “All My Life.” Even though some of his most famous songs have lyrics about bad things, like his fights with rappers like NBA YoungBoy, Quando Rondo, and others, he is determined to change his life.

His next album, Deep Thoughts, should cover the themes that his fans want to hear about. Every time Lil Durk drops a new song, fans are quick to press play. This is true for his longtime girlfriend, his kids, and other rappers.
