Lil Durk wants to put an end to violent crime in his hometown of Chicago and discussed the difficulties in doing so during a recent appearance on The Big Facts Podcast. He explained that it's about slowing down the violence as much as possible and praised Chance The Rapper for the action he's taken in helping out the city.
"That's the number one goal, to stop it," Durk began. "But, the number one priority for us in the streets and politician-wise, is to stop the violence and slow it down as much as possible. It starts with everybody just coming together. But, like I said, it's hard because you probably got him other here thinking he that, but his young n****s don't even respect him. So, even if he be like, 'Come on. Let's come together.' They'd look at him like, 'Get the f*ck on.'"
