Lil Durk‘s family has offered up their thanks to Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson for sharing positive words after the rapper was arrested over the murder of his Quando Rondo’s cousin Lul Pab.
The Instagram page for Durk’s son, Zayden, shared a message alongside a video from Mayor Johnson’s press conference reacting to the arrest.

In the clip, Johnson said: ” I don’t know all the circumstances and details around these accusations. What I do know, though, is that Lil Durk’s mission to build financial literary for children across the city and making other critical investments for the children of this city is where his heart has been.”
Banks’ page captioned the post: “I want to take a moment to stand up for my dad, Durk Banks. He has always dedicated his life to uplifting others and giving back to our community through his nonprofit organization, Neighborhood Heroes. Beyond that, he is a great father who has always supported and loved our family unconditionally.

“I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the mayor for standing with my dad. His speech was well said and truly reflects the community’s support for those who strive to make a positive impact.

Earlier this week, Quando Rondo broke his silence on Durk getting arrested over the murder of his cousin — and his comments weren’t what fans were probably expecting.
While promoting his new single “Life Goes On” over the weekend, the Georgia rapper shared a few words on Instagram preaching forgiveness and positivity.

He wrote: “We didn’t get into this music industry to make it just to stay caught up in street shit. We all have families and communities counting on us. It’s time to leave all that behind.”
The mature message continued: “We’ve already lost so much and it’s heavy on my heart to forgive anyone I had issues with in the past. It’s all love from me. Praying for everyone.”
Last week, Durk was arrested over his alleged role in an attempted hit on Rondo as payback for the death of King Von.
The Grammy-winning rapper was arrested in Florida and booked on a charge of murder for hire.

Five other men were also arrested on charges of murder for hire and murder for hire conspiracy in connection with the killing of Quando’s cousin Saviay’a “Lul Pab” Robinson.
