Recently, Lil Durk vowed to not rap the name of his dead opps anymore. Today, Lil Durk is calling for an end to gun violence in his hometown of Chicago.
Earlier this week, a 6 and 7-year-old girl, were shot in Chicago. To date, over 250 kids have been shot in the city with 32 losing their life. Lil Durk would share the news story on Instagram with a call for a higher power to step in and match efforts he is willing to provide.
“I be willing to help the best way I can but some higher power act as if they don’t care,” Durk started. “This needs to change and ASAP.”
According to WLS-TV Chicago, the 7-year-old died and the 6-year-old is fighting for her life. “They shot her in her heart. She didn’t even get a chance to fight,” Michael Broughton, the girls’ father said. He also said he has no clue who did the shooting or why it happened.
