Lil Durk In Concert - Atlanta, GA

Lil Durk has fans awaiting new music. Though he left fans with enough tunes in 2022 to hold us over until the end of the year, the rapper still has more heat in the cut. Over the past few weeks, he’s ramped up anticipation for his next body of work. However, he never provided a concrete plan to release it. For all we know, he’s still cooking up the project and it might not see a release date until later this year. Regardless, he’s letting fans know that he’s putting in work in the studio.

Over the past few weeks, he’s ramped up anticipation for the project on numerous occasions. Last Saturday, he abruptly announced that his project would drop at midnight. However, he didn’t follow through with that promise as fans refreshed their streaming platform of choice in hopes that a new album from Lil Durk would appear. He never really addressed the false announcement, though he continued to promise fans that the project would arrive soon.

Lil Durk Shares Promising Update On Next Album

Lil Durk continues to build fans up for the release of his next studio album. This weekend, the Chicago rapper hit the ‘Gram where he provided a brief update on what to expect. Though many fans criticized Durk in recent times for playing it safe sonically, he suggested that what he has up his sleeves will catch fans off guard. “This album ain’t a regular,” he wrote on Instagram along with a photo of himself on stage, though he didn’t elaborate beyond that.

Durk announced a few projects over the years that have yet to see the light of day. For one, he and Metro Boomin have hinted at the release of No Auto Durk, though neither have shared an update on it recently. However, there have also been rumors in recent months that he and Future are working on a joint effort. Following the success of “Mad Max,” several reports emerged indicating that they were working on a joint mixtape together. No word from either party on whether this is true but given their track record, it’s something that the people need.
