Did you know that rap came in the 80s and changed everything? This style, framed in the culture of hip-hop, emerged in the late 1970s in the most marginal neighbourhoods of New York as a derivation of funk, and its appearance was a true revelation in the world of music. Some people believe that the word “rap” can be an acronym for Rhythm and Poetry, Reciting a Poem, Revolution, Attitude and Poetry or Respect and Peace. We don’t know what is true, but for sure, we know that rap represents everything to one young Rapper from Chicago, who you might have heard of or maybe not, but the whole world and rap industry knows him as Lil Durk.
Lil Durk is a rapper from Chicago who was born in America with a talent for singing, rapping and writing songs. “Only the Family” was his self-released album, and after his initial success, he began his career as a rapper. Lil Durk devoted his interest to rapping and worked hard to become a famous rapper in the world. His name may not sound so familiar to you, but you can always make a good decision, and buy tickets and attend some of his upcoming concerts where he is going to perform together with the so famous Lil Baby. Everybody loves concerts, and even if you are not into rap, you can always try something new and who knows, perhaps even like it.
Lil Durk always wanted to show his abilities to the world and inspire the world through them. Even though he had difficult youth years, he never gave up and continued working hard for years and years. “Remember My Name” was the first studio album that made him famous and gained popularity worldwide, and even reached number fourteen on Billboard. So far, many Lil Durk concert tickets have been sold, which shows that slowly but surely, he is becoming more popular, especially among young adults who, according to the Internet searches, are interested in getting even Lil Durk tour tickets.2021 was a happy year for him as he won his competitors by getting the most chart placements.
Things That You Haven’t Heard Before About This Famous Rapper
- In 2016, the most popular music blog “Underground Interviews” pronounced Lil Durk as a Rapper of the year.
- Currently, he is 27 years old, but he became a father at a very young age, and now he has six kids who live together with him. He never had enough when he was a kid, and his childhood was far from easy, but now with his work and music, Lil is providing all he can, so his kids don’t pass through the same. He wants to give them a brighter childhood than his and a better future, and with the path he has taken, we believe he will achieve that goal.
- As we already mentioned, Lil Durk was born in Chicago, which is a city well-known or stereotyped as a place with streets full of criminals with a gangster lifestyle. No doubts that in his younger years, he was a victim of street life and experienced the loss of many friends and relatives. His neighbourhood had a profound impact on his life, which made him think and bring another image to the world about Chicago. He wants to show that Chicago still has its beauty and its great artists.
- He never had the chance to attend a music school or get any other music-related education. When he was 17, he dropped out of school to take care of his first baby, but that didn’t stop him nor separated him from the rapping. He learned everything about it from music videos and television. Like most famous persons nowadays, he was heard and became popular through social media such as MySpace and YouTube.
Nowadays so many young people become interested in rapping and new idols are born. New rappers are younger and younger, and we all should appreciate their courage to work on their dreams. We also salute Lil Durk for the path he has chosen and the inspiration he gives to new young rappers through his music and concerts.
