Lil Durk was acquitted on all counts in his murder-for-hire trial in Los Angeles, sparking widespread reactions across the hip-hop community, including praise from 6ix9ine, Kanye West, and 50 Cent, while his mother expressed guilt over his legal struggles and the death of his associate D-Thang. Meanwhile, ongoing violence in the drill scene continues with the fatal shooting of rapper BloodHound Q50 in Chicago, and tensions rise as Meek Mill and DJ Akademiks exchange public accusations. Chief Keef postponed a Chicago show citing a racially charged flight cancellation, and OTF members face potential prison time after testifying in Durk's case.
