The Mixtape + Video:

Lil Durk has achieved remarkable success in his career, but as high as he’s risen, he’d never have gotten far without his loyal bros. Showcasing the talents of his brethren from his Only The Family label, Lil Durk presents Loyal Bros 2, a new compilation tape.

Highlighted by several brand new tracks by Lil Durk, including the recent single “Hanging With Wolves, Loyal Bros 2 touts the benefits of keeping a tight circle of devoted vultures who were around before the fame and fortune. Curated by the Chicago-bred superstar, the new tape showcases the raw lyricism and melodic instincts of the label’s roster of talent, which now boasts luminaries like Doodie Lo, Booka600, Chief Wuk, C3, Deeski, BoonieMoe, OTF Jam, and more. On “We Did It,“ one of the tape’s highlight tracks, BoonieMoe welcomes a verse from the late great King Von.

Inviting an expanded family of kindred spirits to bless the mixtape, the Chicago-based rap crew rolls out the red carpet for stars like Kodak Black, who stunts with Doodie Lo on the recent single “ISTG Pt. 2,“ Future, and Trippie Redd, fellow Chicago standouts like PGF Nuk and Lil Zay Osama, street rap stalwarts like Icewear Vezzo and BIG30, plus many others. Further solidifying OTF’s sterling reputation for unapologetic lyricism and infectious melody, Loyal Bros 2 is available everywhere via Only The Family/EMPIRE.

Along with the mixtape, Durk teams up with Deeski to share “Block Is Hot,” a video for a project standout. Rhyming atop an insistent bassline and hyperactive piano arpeggios, Durk kicks off the proceedings with a blistering no-auto verse, cementing OTF’s untouchable reputation in the streets and comparing his crew to the classic Cash Money roster: “Block war, I got DeDe greet me, he a block boy/Hot Boyz, got so many guns we feel like Glock Boys.” Deeski, aka DeDe or “Ski,” as Durk helpfully points out in the song’s intro, delivers a no-holds-barred verse of his own, his voice inflecting upwards with each tough-talking taunt: “If he talkin’ then he lose his face/All my n****s they be fightin’ case.” In the video, Deeski and Durk kick back on the South Side of Chicago, where he counts cash and mobs with his fellow vultures, including Doodie Lo and Chief Wuk.

The fifth compilation mixtape by Only The Family, Loyal Bros 2 follows up 2021’s Loyal Bros and 2019’s Family Over Everything. Stay tuned for much more from OTF in 2023.

The Background:

OTF Background

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.
