Video: Doodie Lo – “Mr. Kankakee” (Prod. by Chopsquad DJ)

The Lil Durk Co-Signee Reps His Illinois Hometown in a Flossy New Video From the Big Doodie Lo Album

The Video:

A tough-talking rhymer with an outsized charisma, Only The Family rapper Doodie Lo is proud to represent his hometown of Kankakee, IL. Determined to put his city on the map with his bruising bars, Doodie Lo shares “Mr. Kankakee,” his new video. Produced by Chicago area sound architect Chopsquad DJ, the main man behind the production sound of the late King Von, “Mr. Kankakee” finds Doodie Lo running roughshod over drill hi-hats and ominous pianos as he methodically demonstrates why he’s much more than a big fish in a small pond: “In the trenches, my ice on me/I ain’t a real rapper, I get pounds overnight, homie.” In the video, directed by SV Visuals, Doodie Lo leads a tour of his lesser-known hometown, from the stately city hall to the rougher areas from which he hails. “Mr. Kankakee” is a highlight track from Big Doodie Lo, the artist’s debut full-length.

A veteran in the streets since his early teens, the up-and-coming rapper is blends expert tough talk on songs like “Bodies” with vulnerable melody on tracks like “Don’t Worry.” The new mixtape benefits from the influence of the late King Von, Doodie’s close friend and confidante, who Doodie credits for helping him develop the confidence to strike out on his own. The mixtape is home to “Me & Doodie Lo,” an energetic collab between Von and Doodie that originally appeared on OTF’s Loyal Bros compilation (and racked up over 8 million YouTube views), in which the legendary O-Block native gives Mr. Kankakee an enthusiastic co-sign. Doodie Lo returns the favor with mixtape highlight “Von Flow,” in which he emulates the propulsive rhyming pattern that Von used in many of his hits and tells a crazy story of his own. Featuring appearances from his OTF head honcho Lil Durk, along with spots from Moneybagg Yo, Pooh Shiesty (on the pugilistic recent single “Bodies,” which has 2+ million YouTube views), BIG30, and Yung Mal, Big Doodie Lo is available to stream everywhere via Only The Family / EMPIRE.

A close associate of Lil Durk with a growing fanbase in the midwest, Doodie Lo hails from Kankakee, a small city 30 minutes outside of Chicago. He has contributed several standout tracks to OTF compilation tapes, including “Hang Out” ft. Memo600, from 2019’s Family Over Everything. The artist had his coming out party earlier this year with his contributions to Loyal Bros, including “Took Down,” his collaboration with Memphis rapper BIG30 that racked up over 1.7 million video views, “Street Raised Me,” which connected him with Booka600, and most significantly, the aforementioned “Me And Doodie Lo.”

With the full support of Lil Durk and a strong debut mixtape under his belt, Doodie Lo looks to establish himself as the next midwest street rapper to blow. Given all that he’s already overcome, it would not be wise to bet against him.

Founded by Lil Durk, Only The Family is one of rap’s most respected labels and most impressive collections of talent. Originally based in Chicago, the label earned a reputation for cultivating some of the city’s most vital talents, with members like Booka600, Memo600, and the late great King Von. With a roster that reflects label boss Durk’s signature combination of raw lyricism and emotional songwriting, OTF has released three label compilation mixtapes, including the two volumes of Only The Family Involved in 2018 and Family Over Everything in 2019. Ready to make a statement after a 2020 marked by success and tragedy in equal measure, Only The Family is currently preparing Loyal Bros, their next compilation tape, coming in February 2021.
