It looks like Lil Durk may have been cappin’ over the past few months when he teased the release of his next album. The rapper continued to keep fans on their toes for his follow-up to 7220 as he rolled out his new sneaker line. In the past few weeks, he’s ramped up anticipation. He hinted at collaborations with J. Cole, while suggesting that Drake could possibly feature on his next album. All in all, Durk’s apparently pulling out all of the stops for his next studio album.
Despite all of the hints and suggestions on the ‘Gram, the Chicago artist hasn’t necessarily delivered on his promises. He provided fans with a few updates over the past few months, including potential release dates, though nothing came of it. Most recently, he hinted that Kodak Black will be on his next album following the success of records like “Benihana” and “Take You Back.” He didn't appear to have the tracklist finalized but it's an indication that he's well on the way to delivering new music soon.
Lil Durk Completes Album
It sounds like Durk might actually be popping out with new music in the near future. Although he might’ve had some struggles behind the scenes, he took to Instagram and provided a promising update for his fans. “This bi$ch done without half the help I been asking for,” he wrote. “Let’s goooooo sorry I ain’t been connecting to fans I’m almost healed.” From the sounds of it, Durk is aiming to have the summer on lock with his next album.
He shared a handful of snippets over the past few months that garnered significant attention. One of them, specifically, includes what sounds like a shot at Gunna. After the ATL rapper copped a deal in the YSL case, Durk released a snippet where he seemingly denounced Gunna. “What happened to Virgil? He probably gon’ tell,” Durk raps in the teaser. “I can tell you what I did for the streets / you got the paperwork, did it and reached / I got on Clubhouse and got in the beef.” While we won’t get a part 2 of “What Happened To Virgil,” Durk appears to have plenty of other star-power to rely on for his next outing.
