The one-year anniversary of Lil Durk's 7220 album is quickly approaching, and for some time now, the Chicago native has been teasing a follow-up project for fans. The 17-track effort found him working with Future, Gunna, Summer Walker, and Morgan Wallen, setting expectations high for whatever he's got in store next. Unfortunately, some recent rap beef is beginning to overshadow excitement surrounding The Voice 2.0.
As you may have seen online earlier this week, the "Laugh Now Cry Later" collaborator seemingly reignited his past feud with NBA YoungBoy and Quando Rondo. "I can drop this single and f*ck the streets up, on God," Durkio wrote on Instagram recently. "Your release date ain't safe son." Though he didn't explicitly name-drop anyone in the post, internet sleuths assumed he was dissing the Never Broke Again artists.
Lil Durk's Back & Forth with Quando Rondo and NBA YoungBoy
As AceShowBiz notes, YoungBoy's Don't Try This at Home album is due to drop sometime in April. The Louisana native has already had a busy year, previously sharing 19 titles on I Rest My Case as well as a single called, "Next." For Quando's part, he's been steadily working on his forthcoming release, 1633. He's already unveiled the cover art, also announcing that his work will be dedicated to the late Lul Pab, who lost his life in a tragic shooting last year.
"One more month," the 23-year-old wrote. "I put my heart in this album, seen a lot of blood sweat and tears. Lost my right-hand man in front of my eyes. I love you thug, I'm going number one for you big brah." In response to Durk's apparent sneak diss, Quando wrote on his own Story, "Drop that shit, we all on a time schedule!" Clearly, the Savannah native is unbothered by any potential competition from his fellow rapper.
Back in Album Mode
In wake of the interesting social media exchange, blogs began lighting up with rumours of beef between OTF and NBA. For his part, the father of six is attempting to combat the drama with yet another message written on his IG Story. "If I don't say it out loud, it's not real," he reminded readers before asking them to "stop click-baiting Smurk."
"Back to album," he confirmed, though an official release date and other details surrounding the highly anticipated project are unknown at this time. Who do you hope to see Lil Durk work with on The Voice 2.0? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
