Lil Baby, the apex performer of the group assembled, shines through as an accessory to the party – Young Dolph is equally unassuming, yielding to unwanted attention, like a star accepting of his privilege and the blinding lights.
The alliance of Lil Durk, Lil Baby, and Young Dolph already had a marching song to fall back on, now there’s an instructive video to go with it. In the video for “Downfall,” Lil Durk poses as his younger self, then reawakens to find himself on the “right” end of a temporal shift. In the void created by Drill’s transference and subsequent rebirth in the UK, Durk has remade himself a person-of-interest on a National scale.
In keeping pace with two rappers that punch above their weight, Durk has shown himself willing and capable to take the next step in his career, provided he stays within his box. With a rebooted project under his belt, and opportunities abound, there’s no telling what 2019 could spell for Mr. Durk.
