Lil Durk 7220 The Album CD
Looks like Lil Durk wasnāt cappinā after all. In the weeks leading up to the release of his seventh album, 7220, Durk challenged anyone to drop an album on the same day. Itās a good thing no one took him up on his challenge – looking at you, YoungBoy Never Broke Again – because 7220 gave Durk his first solo No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 charts (he previously scored a No. 1 album with his Lil Baby collab, The Voice of the Heroes). Gunna, Future, Summer Walker, and more are also featured on the album.
