Yesterday's price for Lil Durk is not today's price, especially after all the success the Chicago rapper has had with his latest album 7220.

On Wednesday, March 23, Durk appeared on the Full Send podcast to talk about an array of subjects. During their conversation, the "Petty Too" rapper revealed his asking price for a feature verse. Durk said that if he knows the artist well and likes their music, he may just do the collaboration for free. However, if the artist is a stranger to him, then he's asking for at least $350,000. The average artist may think that's a bit much, but he said there are artists who've paid up and he's got the receipts to prove it.

WARNING: EXPLICIT LANGUAGE

“If I don’t know you… I ain’t gonna lie, I gotta go $350,000,” Durk told the show's hosts. “I got receipts. Now listen, you gotta have receipts. Because somebody could come up here just to lie, to boost they sales.”

Durk's price has risen significantly since he first revealed how much he makes for shows. Back in 2020, Durk tweeted that he had planned to ask for $100,000 to perform. Fast forward to earlier this month, the "AHHH HA" rapper said that his label had provided him with $40 million. The amount is still unconfirmed by his label, Alamo Records. In his latest interview, Durk explained that he'll charge artists he doesn't know 6-figures for a feature as long as the label has the funds available in their budget.

"If I don’t know you from a can of paint, and the label wanna spend some money. … It’s not really the artist, even though it’s their budget, I’m gonna fuck the label up bad.”

Lil Durk touches on his previous collaboration with Morgan Wallen, working with Lil Baby and more. Watch the full interview up top.
