Chicago was the birthplace of Drill
and has inspired a worldwide movement that has spread everywhere from Florida
to even the UK.
Drill rappers are known for rapping about real crimes they've committed
and the deadly life in the streets.
Here's a look at some wild Chicago drill lyrics that actually happened
"He survived one to the head but it ****** up his body
Lil Durk- Should Have Ducked.
Lil Durk is one of the most popular rappers to come out of Chicago in the early 2010s.
His career has some ups and downs
but he's managed to build a solid fan base that has kept him relevant in the music industry
for almost a decade.
Even though Durk has changed his ways
and moved out of Chicago to focus on his rap career full time,
he's still a savage at heart
and will occasionally drop a diss track against his enemies.
His most recent diss, "Should Have Ducked",
was a bonus track off the rapper's most recent album, the Voice,
where he takes shots at several members of the FBG crew.
In this bar, Durk is throwing shots at rival rapper FBG Wooski,
who the artist has been beefing with for years.
Wooski is one of O'Block's most hated opps
due to the number of bodies and disses he's dropped.
This deadly beef
eventually led to Wooski getting ambushed and shot in the head outside a funeral
which is what Durk was talking about in the bar.
Wooski actually grew up in the Parkway Gardens houses,
the housing project in the area, locals of named O'Block.
Even though his older brother, BigMike was a BD
and the entire building was controlled by the gang,
Wooski ended up joining the GDs
after becoming cool with dudes from the St. Lawrence area like FBG Duck.
Big Mike protected Wooski when he was growing up
but that could only last so long.
Wooski was just too wild to be contained
and was forced to leave the area
after a BD from the set Wic City named Reezy was shot and killed.
The shooting happened during the fight between Reezy
and a group of dudes from the STL/EBT set including Wooski.
Wooski was rumored to be the shooter in Reezy's death
even though he was only twelve or thirteen at the time.
After that, he couldn't stay on O'Block anymore
The STL/EBT took him in and he's been rapping the set ever since.
This beef would eventually get even deeper
after Wooski allegedly killed an O'Block member named Patoon
and King Von retaliated by killing Wooski's cousin Modell.
Around that time, Von and Wooski started going back and forth on Twitter
making their hatred for each other public.
So it started an all-out war between the two sets.
Their beef got even more intense after Von and Big Mike, Wooski's brother,
both got charged with murder after killing a man named Malcolm Stuckey
outside the house party.
Stuckey had allegedly been Mean Mug and Von
so the rapper went to recruit Big Mike as backup.
When they confronted Stuckey outside the house party,
they ended up opening fire, killing their target,
and injuring the dudes he was with.
Both Big Mike and Von were potentially facing up to 100 years in prison
and Mike decided to rat.
He told police Von was the one who fired the fatal shot
and he was just there for protection
but at the last minute, Big Mike changed his mind and refused to testify.
Either O'Block got to him while he was locked up
and let him know that if he came back to the streets, he'd be a dead man
or he figured it out on his own.
Either way, without Mike's testimony, the prosecutors didn't have much to go off.
Von ended up beating the case and Mike took the charge for the murder,
getting sentenced to 28 years in prison.
Check out our video on rappers that beat a murder case
for more info on what happened.
Even though Mike still took the fall for the crime,
the fact that he even thought about snitching
meant that he had to be disowned by O'Block
and made the beef even more serious.
Things continue to escalate after an O'Block member named HK was murdered
outside the entrance to the Parkway Gardens houses.
Wooski was rumored to be one of the shooters
which he confirmed on the diss track Computers remix.
On the track, the rapper takes credit for the killing of a bunch of BDs including HK
and after that, O'Block was out for blood.
They couldn't get to Wooski so they went after one of his homies.
Drooski tha Man,
who was shot and killed in the Washington Park neighborhood later that year.
It was at Drooski tha Man's funeral
that O'Block will come close to getting revenge on one of Chiraq’s deadliest shooters.
The beef was at a boiling point and both gangs were out for blood.
Von even warned Wooski
that a surprise was coming over FaceTime on the night before the funeral.
Right after the service, Wooski stepped out to smoke a cigarette
which is when his opps finally caught up to him.
They sprayed up the front of the church, hitting Wooski in the head,
and injuring five other people.
Wooski somehow survived the shooting but suffered nerve damage and blood loss.
So on Should Have Ducked,
Durk is rapping about Wooski getting shot in the head
and struggling with the effects even though he survived.
Durk was close to King Von
and was also known to beef with Wooski and the rest of the FBG crew.
The whole track is actually a diss against the late FBG Duck
who was shot and killed in an upscale shopping area of Chicago called the Gold Coast.
Earlier on the track, Durk raps,
"I told my P.O. through the gate that I get high as ****
she asked me how high do I get?
High as Duck."
Duck was killed in August 2020
after dropping a diss track called Dead B****
where he disrespects dead members of O'Block.
Next to Wooski, Duck was one of O'Block's most hated opps.
Before his death, he and Durk have been exchanging diss tracks for years.
But Durk isn't the only rapper that FBG Duck has thrown shots at
In this next bar, the rapper disses a dead opp named 600 Waldo,
who died the day after Dooski tha Man was murdered
"Waldo ain't get to finish his status, he was on the internet laughing.
Capping, then get caught without it."
FBG Duck, Exposing Me remix.
Waldo 600 was a member of the 600 set of the BDs.
600 is allied with O'Block in the war against the STL/EBT
and MOB sets of the GDs.
Waldo was shot and killed on East 63rd Street,
a street that's considered the border between O'Block and 600,
not far from the Parkway Gardens Houses.
He was killed on October 10th 2018 just a day after Dooski the man was murdered,
not far from the same spot.
It's been rumored that Waldo was killed in retaliation for his murder
which probably added to the attack on Wooski.
Waldo was allegedly there on the day Dooski was shot and killed.
To make it even worse, rumors circulated that Waldo was dissin Dooski online
which led to immediate retaliation.
Both men were well respected in their gangs
so the murders added even more attention
to the already intense war that was raging on the streets of the Southside.
In this bar,
Duck is referencing the fact that Waldo got killed for dissin a dead opp on the internet.
When MOB caught Waldo lacking an enemy territory,
it was all over.
It's pretty wild how quick the revenge was for Dooski's death
but on the streets of Chicago,
anything can happen in the blink of an eye.
But Waldo isn't the only opp Duck reference in this song.
In another verse, he raps,
"Let off 23, then 7 more. That's how I comfort bro.
T Roy ain’t get shot inside his head but he ain't make it though"
The first line is about Duck's brother, FBG Brick.
Brick was another member of the STL/EBT set
who had been trying to follow in his brother's footsteps
and become a rapper after being released from prison.
Brick was shot and killed in the Woodlawn neighborhood of the Southside
In July 2017 along with his cousin Coby Mac.
Rumor has it that Brick was posting videos on the internet taunting O'Block
so a group of BD Goons pulled up to confront him.
According to witnesses, they hit Coby first and Brick had to turn and run.
He went down an alley but realized he was going in the wrong direction.
At the end of the alley, was a gate that he tried to hop
but got stuck halfway over.
His killers caught him stuck on the fence
and shot him in the back while he was trying to get to the other side.
No one was ever arrested for the murders
but it is rumored to be a group of O'Block 600 members including HK.
HK was one of the opps who was later killed by Wooski
but Brick's murder was likely part of the motive.
The night after Brick was killed,
FBG allegedly shot up O'Block.
Within the FBG click, each rapper has their own numbers.
Duck claimed the number 03 and Brick was referred to as 30.
So when he raps let off 23, then 7,
he's making a play on words based on his code.
23 plus 7 equals 30 so he's got 30 rounds for O'Block to get revenge for his brother.
In the next bar, he references a dead opp named T-Roy
who was killed earlier the same year.
T-Roy was a respected shooter from O'Block who was close to King Von, Chief Keef,
and HK's youngest brother.
Even though he was less than 5'3'',
T Roy was a respected shooter with multiple alleged bodies
T Roy was shot and killed on February 14th, 2017 at just 23 years old.
Rumor has it that he was out looking for an opp named TB from TyQuan’s World.
Another set of the GDs that's allied with STL/EBT.
Troy accidentally wandered into a neighborhood known as PaxTown,
an area controlled by the GDs.
He was on the hunt for TB
because he allegedly killed an O'Block member named Cheno.
While wandering around PaxTown,
T-Roy was spotted by none other than FBG Brick.
Brick then called up TB to alert him that T-Roy was out looking for blood.
TB was then able to get the drop on T-Roy
and shot him in the chest around the 2000 block of East 71st Street.
The shooting was captured on Facebook Live
by a woman who's in the car at the time he was shot.
A two-year-old child was also tragically killed in the shooting.
T-Roy was a well respected member of O'Block
whose death was a major loss for the crew.
After his murder, his brother HK really started turning up in the streets
Before that, HK was affiliated but not known for having any bodies.
After T-Roy's death,
he had to step up and fill his brother's shoes
and ended up being involved in multiple murders in less than a year.
First, he was allegedly involved in the killing of Poppie from TW,
who was also one of the alleged killers of Cheno from O'Block,
along with TB.
T-Roy was shot while trying to get revenge for Cheno's murder
so it seems like HK decided to finish the job.
Poppie was working a 9 to 5 at a grocery store
when he was caught by HK and another O'Block member named Duke.
Duke was credited with the hit but HK was allegedly with him.
Next, HK went after FBG Brick
for being the one who's responsible for alerting TB about his brother's location.
HK was allegedly the one who chased Brick into the alley
and fired the kill shot.
Then, HK got his revenge by killing TB in September 2017.
TB was chilling with a dude named Side from Jaro City, another set of the GDs.
HK found out their location from someone
and went to confront him.
Rumors have gone around that when HK pulled up,
TB just laughed and said, you finally got me.
But this is unconfirmed
as he was killed right after from a gunshot wound to the head.
Side was also shot in the head but survived.
But HK's reign of terror ended
after getting his final revenge because only two months later, he was killed.
On November 24th 2017,
HK was chilling in O'Block
with the dude named Famous from a BD set called Blackgate.
They were walking toward one of the buildings
when a car pulled up and FBG Wooski
along with two affiliates from Jaro City and TW jumped out.
Famous managed to escape but HK was shot in the legs and stomach
later dying from those injuries.
Wooski raps about the shooting on his diss track Computers.
King Von was close with both T-Roy and HK
so their deaths intensify the beef between the STL/EBT set and O'Block.
Their murders are a big part of what led up to Wooski getting a shot outside Dooski tha Man's funeral
bringing the whole beef full circle.
The war between O'Block and STL/EBT continues to this day.
Even though there's still plenty of violence going on in the Southside,
all the major rappers who were associated with the early drill scene
are either dead or too rich to still be putting in work on the streets.
King Von and FBG Duck's tragic deaths in 2020
seemed to have closed a chapter on the wild era for drill music
and the public attention that shifted to places like London and Jacksonville.
Chiraq will always be the birthplace of Drill and one of the wildest hoods in America.
But every rapper eventually has to choose
whether they want to continue the endless cycle of violence
or put the path behind them to focus on a legal music career.
