🚨LIL DURK is "committed to change," according to his legal defense. @LAmag In a motion requesting Durk be released on bond, Lil Durk’s lawyers are arguing that he has changed his life and should not be judged solely by the violent image prosecutors presented at trial. They highlight several examples to convince the judge he should be released on bond: - His lawyers say Durk began therapy in 2023 to address past trauma and completed a 30-day inpatient drug treatment program. They say he has remained sober from drugs and alcohol since then. - The defense points to his Grammy-winning song “All My Life” as evidence that he wanted to promote positive messages to young people. J. Cole wrote a letter supporting that argument, saying Durk insisted on the song’s message of peace and personal growth. - Businessman Michael Rubin says Durk volunteered to help with a clothing drive for underprivileged families. Jay-Z’s letter describes Durk signing young artists from his community and helping them build careers. - His lawyers cite a 2024 concert where Durk encouraged people to put down their guns, brought a perceived rival onto the stage and held a moment of silence for victims of street violence. - The defense submitted letters from J. Cole, Jay-Z, Michael Rubin and former Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx in support of Durk’s bond request.
