Lil Durk was raised in Chicago alongside his brother D Thang, solely by their mother as their father was sentenced to spend years behind bars when Lil Durk was only seven months old; he has revealed that there were times while he was growing, that there wasn’t enough food in the house for him and his brother. He began dreaming about becoming a famous rapper when he was around six years old, and started uploading his own music onto the internet when he was 14, on websites such as YouTube and Myspace.
Lil Durk studied at Paul Robeson High School, and became ‘serious about life’ after he became a father aged 17; he then dropped out of school, and became a member of the Chicago street gang Black Disciples. It didn’t take long for Lil Durk to get into trouble with the authorities, and he was sent to jail in October 2011 on gun-related charges, having pleaded guilty.
After leaving jail in November 2011, Lil Durk released his singles “I’ma Hitta” and “Sneak Dissin”, then his third mixtape “Life Ain’t No Joke” on 19 October 2012, and also the single “L’s Anthem” in December of the same year.
