Chicago's Lil Durk just dropped the music video for "Lord Don't Make Me Do It," the latest single off the rapper's studio debut Remember My Name. The track has Durk taking drill to ever-darker depths with lyrics like "Sometimes I get the urge to kill a bitch / kill a hoe / And I ain't even violent" and a video that sees him spending half his screentime straitjacketed in a prison cell and writing on the walls with his own blood. But in the wake of the shooting deaths of both his manager and his cousin over the past two years, "Lord Don't Make Me Do It" isn't just a grim new direction for the young artist -- it's a reflection of an ugly, powerful reality. Give it a watch, above.
