Beginning his career, from 2011 to 2012, Durk released his debut, un-official mixtape, I’m a Hitta which was released on August 26, 2011. On April 3, 2012, Durk released his sophomore mixtape, a sequel to his previous tape, I’m Still a Hitta. Durka later released his third mixtape on November 5, 2012, titled Life Ain’t No Joke
Like many drill artists, Durk’s early career was plagued with legal issues and accusations of violence. These issues eventually led to his shows being canceled.
From 2013 to 2015 Durk released a total of four projects, three mixtapes, and an album. October 10, 2013, marked the release of the first Signed to the Streets, one of Durk’s most notable mixtapes and the start of a series. In the summer of 2014, specifically July 4, Durk released a sequel to Signed to the Streets and released Signed to the Streets 2 featuring his “What You Do to Me”.
2015 would be an enormous year for Lil Durk as in July 2015, Durk released his debut studio album, Remember My Name which featured his Jeremih-assisted “Like Me.” Later that year, Durk released his sixth mixtape 300 Days 300 Nights which included his then-girlfriend, Dej Loaf-assisted, “My Beyoncé.”
From 2016 to 2017, Durk released a total of four solo projects and one collaborative project. On July 22, 2016, Durk released his sophomore studio album, Lil Durk 2X accompanied by features such as Future, Young Thug, Yo Gotti and more. Ending the year, Durk released They Forgot, his seventh mixtape.
Beginning 2017, in February, Durk released his seventh mixtape, Love Songs for the Streets, which is deemed as one of his most notable projects including features from Moneybagg Yo and YFN Lucci. Later that year in August, Durk released a collaborative EP with Lil Reese titled Supa Vultures; the project included his “Nobody Knows”. On October 19, 2017, Durk carried on with his Signed to the Streets series with the highly anticipated Signed to the Streets 2.5. The mixtape included the start of yet another song series titled “India” dedicated to his fiancé India Cox otherwise known as India Royale.
In 2018, Durk released two projects, he began with Just Cause Y'all Waited, Durk’s highest-charting mixtape peaking at #57 on the Billboard 200. Durk then released a sequel to Love Songs for the Streets titled Love Songs 4 the Streets 2. Durk was extremely successful prior to this album, however, many say that this exact album broke Durk into the mainstream rap industry as it had been his first project to chart in the top 10 of the Billboard 200.
2020 was an even better year for Lil Durk as he released his almost chart-topping Just Cause Y’all Waited 2 which peaked at #2 on the Billboard 200. It was later followed up with a deluxe.
The scars of violence run deep in Durk’s discography, particularly arising from the loss of OTF members Nunu (Nuski) and King Von at the hands of gunfire. Both artists are commemorated on his album The Voice, for which a deluxe version was released in 2021.
Anointing himself as the voice of the streets, Durk followed up this project with the release of the collaborative album The Voice of the Heroes with Lil Baby which brought the Chicago native artist his first #1 album.
Marking his first solo #1 album, in March 2022, Lil Durk released a melodramatic take on the deaths of his loved ones through an album titled 7220. The album became Durk’s first solo project to top the charts.

Lil Durk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We pop out with them Glocks out, now everybody got switches
I don't talk about what we talk about, I don't want everybody in my business
I done told the truth about bro'nem, now everybody in they feelings
She done set the standards for the bad bitches, now everybody got titties
We ain't never worried 'bout murder cases, nigga, everybody got millions
Keep your head up, you don't never wanna put your head down in the trenches
Had a real lunch with a billionaire, I need a hundred mil' to get with 'em
I done seen niggas I vouched for post dude's shit on they Twitter
I brung Pooh Shiesty to my block, gave him my Glock with an extension
I seen Juice WRLD documentary, I don't want a Percocet, I'm finished
These hoes fuck for a name, I'll never Birkin bag these bitches
I be tryna stop takin' drugs, feel like I love to clog my kidneys
Told a bad bitch, "I can't be seen with you," she got a UberEat her Denny's
Why you playin' with me? You can't compare to us, nigga's better save they pennies
I'm like Doe Boy, don't lie to me, I'll tell your ass, "Oh, really?"
Love the waistband from them pants, the way my Glock be in my Amiris
I'm Durk, but call me Smurk, nigga, 'cause every time I'm grinnin'
Like Kodak said, take a Percocet, nigga, everybody turn gremlin
And you know I'm winnin' when I drop shit, nigga, everybody in my mentions
I just took me one drug, I'm tryna get turnt up
I just took two drugs tryna get turnt up
I just took three drugs tryna get turnt up
I just took four drugs tryna get turnt up
I be out there with them killers 'til the fuckin' sun up
Better have a lot of switches if you ever run up
If you outside in them trenches, never put your gun up
If you think the feds on you, better put them funds up
I went to court early off a Percocet, had to open my eyes
I was just fuckin' on a lady guard, that's the only reason I'm tired
I lost a real savage to some bitch niggas, only reason I cry
I got real money, I'ma need the bank staff to come count this stash
I tell her her pussy wet, them excuses whenever I really can't last
I'm sorry I ain't send you no money, I'm thinkin' you good 'cause you ain't ask
Don't come to my crib talkin' 'bout a rumor, nigga, if that shit ain't facts
They say bro DNA was on the murder scene, but that shit ain't match
They take your shit and they know you a clown, just know you ain't gettin' it back
One reason I don't be takin' no interviews, 'cause they bring up rats
That last killin' was a big mistake, so why you ain't statin' the facts?
I told a young nigga he don't get a bag whenever he make a mess
I was lookin' at certain niggas kinda funny like he wore a MAGA hat
You get a location, you gotta go do it, you know you can't play with that
And I wear it for fashion, but I got two guns in the Avirex
Like why you go tell the nigga to go slide knowin' he ain't made for that?
I just took me one drug, I'm tryna get turnt up
I just took two drugs tryna get turnt up
I just took three drugs tryna get turnt up
I just took four drugs tryna get turnt up
I be out there with them killers 'til the fuckin' sun up
Better have a lot of switches if you ever run up
If you outside in them trenches, never put your gun up
If you think the feds on you, better put them funds up
The lyrics to Lil Durk's song "No Interviews" touch on a variety of topics, from violence and drugs to personal struggles and relationships. The song starts off with Durk talking about how they carry guns with switches (automatic triggers), but he doesn't talk about it openly as he doesn't want everyone in his business. Durk then reflects on how his truth-telling about his friends has led to others being in their feelings, and how the standards set by one particular woman have everyone trying to imitate her.
Durk continues to rap about how he and his friends aren't worried about murder cases or anything because they're all millionaires now, but they still stay ready for whatever comes their way. He mentions giving his Bulls game tickets to Kim Foxx, having lunch with a billionaire, and bringing fellow rapper Pooh Shiesty to his block. Durk also references the Juice WRLD documentary and how he's trying to stay away from drugs, but it's tough when he loves clogging his kidneys.
Finally, he touches on relationships with women and how he doesn't want to be seen with certain ones, how people should never lie to him, and how he's always ready for anyone trying to come up against him. The chorus is an expression of how he's trying to get "turnt up" with drugs and how he's always out there with killers till the sun comes up.
Overall, "No Interviews" is a reflection of Lil Durk's life and experiences, as well as that of several other rappers like Juice WRLD and Pooh Shiesty. The lyrics delve into themes of violence, drugs, wealth, and relationships, all while showcasing Durk's unique rapping style.

One reason I don't be takin' no interviews, 'cause they bring up rats
I avoid doing media interviews because journalists often ask about snitches or informants, a sensitive topic for me
That last killin' was a big mistake, so why you ain't statin' the facts?
The most recent murder was a significant error, and I am questioning why the true details have not been revealed
I told a young nigga he don't get a bag whenever he make a mess
I advised a young person that they will not receive a financial reward every time they make a mistake or create a problem
I was lookin' at certain niggas kinda funny like he wore a MAGA hat
I was suspicious of some people, as if they were wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat, indicating support for Donald Trump
You get a location, you gotta go do it, you know you can't play with that
When you receive a directive about committing a violent act, you must follow through, as failure to do so would be dangerous
And I wear it for fashion, but I got two guns in the Avirex
I wear a certain brand of clothing for style, but I secretly conceal two firearms within it
