Durk Banks (born October 19, 1992), better known by his stage name Lil Durk is an American rapper from Chicago, Illinois. He is signed to the major record label Def Jam as well as French Montana's Coke Boys imprint.

Early life

Banks was raised in the Englewood area, a violent neighborhood on Chicago's South Side.[2]

Musical career

Durk was affiliated with Glory Boys Entertainment early in his career but never signed with them. Durk started seriously considering rap as a career after the release of his two singles, “Sneak Dissin” and "Ima Hitta", which received generally positive feedback.[3] On December 2012, Durk released a remix to his song "L's Anthem" featuring French Montana[4] On May 21, 2013, Lil Durk inked a deal on French Montana's label, Coke Boys.[5]

After a couple delays, on October 10, 2013, his fourth mixtape Signed To the Streets got released on DatPiff. It was released under his own label OTF and Coke Boys. It features two guest appearances from Lil Reese and production credits from Paris Bueller, Young Chop and more.[6] 8 music videos have been released for the mixtape: "Bars Pt. 2", "Oh My God", "100 Rounds", "Dis Ain't What U Want", "Bang Bros", "Traumatized", "Hittaz" and "Times". Signed to the Streets would be named the eighth best mixtape of 2013 by Rolling Stone.[7] On October 22, 2013, in an interview with XXL Lil Durk said he was working on his debut album with Def Jam and the Coke Boys collaboration album.[8] He was planning to release his fifth mixtape, Fuckery, on January 5, 2014. However, on January 6, 2014, Lil Durk stated on Twitter that Def Jam told him not to release the free mixtape.[9] Durk was named part of the 2014 XXL Freshmen Class.[10]

In 2011, Banks was arrested on a weapons charge and sentenced to three months in jail. He was later released on bond, only to be sent back to serve 87 more days.[11][12]

On June 5, 2013, Banks was arrested after allegedly throwing a loaded .40 caliber handgun into his car when police approached him on South Green Street in Chicago. He was charged with unlawful use of a weapon by a felon.[13] He was held on $100,000 bond and his lawyer would claim to have nine affidavits from witnesses who confirm Durk's innocence. One witness also admitted the gun was his.[14] Banks was released on July 18, 2013.[12]
