When an artist decides to drop a deluxe album, it’s typically three to six new songs added to the original. Lil Durk is changing that narrative, announcing he will be adding fourteen new tracks to the “7720” deluxe album. Durk took to Instagram to surprise fans with the “7220” deluxe album.

Back in March, Lil Durk arrived with 7220, his seventh album and first solo project since The Voice, which he released at the end of December 2020. 7220 presents 18 tracks and collaborations with Gunna, Future, Summer Walker, and Morgan Wallen. Thanks to fan favorites like “What Happened To Virgil,” “Petty Too,” and “Ahhh Ha,” the project worked its way to No. 1 on the albums chart. Three months later and Durk is now ready to give the project a new breath of life thanks to its upcoming deluxe reissue. He kicks its rollout off with a video for his new single, “Did Sh*t For Me.”
The track is a menacing effort that watches Lil Durk, along with fellow Chicago rapper Doodie Lo, flex their invisibility. They address threats that they’ve supposed received from the competition while mocking them for their failure to make said threats a reality. In the song’s matching visual, Durk and Doodie Lo rap tauntingly and excitedly as they stand in front of luxury vehicles. They also take things to the studio and later show off their cash supply.
After the deluxe issue of 7220 arrives, Lil Durk will return to the road for his 7220 Deluxe Tour for shows across the United States.
You can watch the video for “Did Sh*t For Me” above.
7220 (Deluxe) is out 6/24 via Alamo Records / Sony Music.
Gunna is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Lil Durk has had a highly successful last few years and his confidence matches the accolades. While his mettle in music isn’t to be denied, his skills on the basketball court are also well-documented as well. After an April episode of The Shop on HBO, he received one of the biggest co-signs any non-professional basketball player can receive in the form of praise from LeBron James. “Lil Durk can hoop,” King James said. “He can hoop for real. Man, he [at] Lifetime hooping. He got a f****** cannon, too. He got a peel, and he look like a mothaf*cker that can [ball].”

TMZ had a second to speak with “The Voice” at LAX this past Wednesday (June 15) and Durk took it a step further by calling out two of the most prominent figures in his primary sport, who also have an affinity for basketball themselves: three-time SBL champion Drake and new professional hooper J. Cole.
“[Drake’s] my dog, but he ain’t gon’ play us though,” the “Refugee” rapper said. “[LeBron] knows I’m the best ever. Tell your f*cking children.” He had similar energy for Cole. “I know I can, I just told you that I’m the best ever,” he affirmed. “[That’s] my boy, but I’d dunk that sh*t on [J. Cole].” Time will tell if these matchups will ever occur, but Lil Durk doesn’t seem too worried about how they will go.

HOT 97’s Summer Jam returned to MetLife Stadium and was headlined by Lil Baby, Lil Durk, Fivio Foreign, Roddy Ricch, City Girls, and more. The night also had a star-studded tribute to the iconic DJ Kay Slay.
The night was stamped by Lil Baby who led the sold-out crowd through “Drip Too Hard” and “Yes Indeed.” Following Lil Baby’s set, Lil Durk took the stage with special guests Meek Mill, Nardo Wick, and French Montana.
Earlier in the evening, DreamDoll and Pusha T invigorated the stadium with their energy, followed by Roddy Ricch taking the stage to perform his hit singles “High Fashion” featuring DJ Mustard and “The Box.” It was a true City Girl Summer when, JT and Yung Miami hit the stage with their diamonds dancing and their high-fashion, performing fan favorites “Twerkulator” and “Act Up.”
The all-star homage to the late great DJ Kay Slay, the Drama King, was one of the most anticipated moments of the evening. The celebration was arranged by friend and rapper Papoose and featured Busta Rhymes, Remy Ma, Fat Joe, Maino, The Lox’s Jadakiss, Sheek Louch, Styles P., Juelz Santana, and Jim Jones who all performed during the set. Fans rejoiced as friends and relatives of DJ Kay Slay took the stage in honor of the Drama King’s life and legacy.
“Kay Slay loved authenticity and represents the streets! I knew the artists who came out had to embody that!” Said Papoose, who orchestrated the tribute along with T.T. Torrez (Hot 97 VP of Artist & Label Relations) & DJ Spazzo. “While putting it together I was extremely emotional! I didn’t know if I would be able to walk on that stage without breaking down but I pulled it off! Kay Slay was watching over me!”
Cardi B hit the festival stage to join B-LOVEE and Dougie B to perform “Shake It.” Additional performers included Cordae, BLEU, NLE Choppa, Benny The Butcher, Babyface Ray and Lady London.
