Lil Durk stands up for his birth city of Chicago with every breath. Earlier this month, Lil Durk released “1-(773) Vulture,” a street twist on Logic’s smash hit “1-800-273-8255.”
Flipping the suicide-prevention theme of the original track, Durk spins the track with introspective lines about street life and homicide. In the video, Durk focuses on the tragedies that pervade street life, ranging from gun violence to drug addiction, and innocents who get caught in the crossfire.
Dedicated to Lil Durk’s fellow Chicago rapper Fredo Santana, who passed away last week, the video is a moving and melodic tribute to those who worry they might not make it to the next day.
