It’s safe to say that Lil Durk is a certified veteran in the hip-hop scene. With over half a decade in the game, Lil Durk not only positioned himself at the forefront of the Chicago drill scene but also paved the way for a lot of the newer artists exploring melodies. Although his career has been somewhat plagued by a series of label issues, Lil Durk has never failed to stay consistent in dropping quality music.
With Signed To The Streets 3 scheduled to drop November 9th, Lil Durk thought it was time to give us a taste with “Rockstar”, tapping Lil Skies for the new crowd surfing anthem. The beat, produced by Young Chop, consists of a strong guitar sample, thumping 808s and howling synths that rise the adrenaline in both artist’s voices. Lil Durk and Lil Skies are a match made in heaven, as their druggy, crooning styles of melodic rap intertwine smoothly. With the smooth performances of each vocalist contrasting the hard, driving instrumental, it becomes clear that this is a song for both the club and the mosh pit.
Listen to “Rockstar” below, and look out for Signed to the Streets 3 in the next few weeks.
