Lil Duke

Rapper Lil Duke, aka YSL Duke, is a longtime affiliate of Atlanta superstar Young Thug who offers a more straightforward take on trap. • In 2016, Duke became the first artist signed to Young Thug’s YSL Records label, and he’s been featured on most of his mentor’s projects, including two guest spots (“I Bought Her” and “Cartier Gucci Scarf”) on Thug’s 2019 debut studio album, So Much Fun. • Prior to joining YSL, Duke was known as MPA Duke. He was a member of the now-defunct Money Pounds Ammunition crew headed by Peewee Longway. • He’s released several mixtapes in the leadup to his first album, including 2019’s Blue Devil 2, which features Thug, Gunna, Lil Durk, and Lil Yachty.
