In a recent interview, Tony Yayo expressed disbelief over federal accusations that Lil Durk allegedly ordered hits on six individuals, tied to ongoing violence in Chicago. With Durk's trial set for January, the feds are intensifying charges, claiming murder-for-hire involvement. Yayo stressed the gravity of such allegations, noting that murder-for-hire carries severe penalties like life imprisonment or even the death penalty.
“I thought it was internet rumors,” Yayo admitted, surprised that these claims come directly from authorities. He reflected on the harsh realities of street violence, cautioning against glorifying such conflicts despite public fascination with rapper feuds like the one involving King Von and NBA YoungBoy.
While advocating against violence, Yayo acknowledged the dangerous stakes rappers face, saying, “If you’re going to do a murder for hire, you might as well do it yourself.” The conversation also touched on the harsh realities of violence in cities like Chicago and the importance of staying safe.
