Why Zayden's dad doesn't want him on the streets

Durk is a father of 6 children. He was only 17 years old when he had his first child. Zayden is one of them and his other five siblings are Skyler Banks (with Tameka Kute), Angelo Banks (with Nicole Covone), Willow Banks (with India Royale), Du'mier Banks (Mother unknown) and Bella Banks (with Nicole Covone). 

His childhood was filled with gang bangers, theft, and violence. Durk's father was also a part of the increasing violence in Chicago. 

He was involved in petty crimes and violent acts. Durk was abandoned by his father when he was just seven months old. 

This created a level of fear and resentment in Durk's mind. He swore to himself that he would provide a better life for his loved ones. 

Zayden is the second son of Durk, and he does everything he can to provide his kids with what he didn't grow up with. 

The father of three knows about the violence in Chiraq all too well. 

He doesn't want his children to have anything to do with the streets, while his stomping grounds may have been in Englewood. 

"My job is to put them up somewhere to play baseball, soccer," said Durk to Vibe. 

"I don't want my children to be out on the streets. I want my kids to be smart. I want them to read books or play sports. I don't want them to know anything about gangs or the streets". 

Durk has stated that he wants to move his kids out of Chicago. 

He expresses his concerns about increasing gangs and violence in Chicago. 

He hopes to provide a safer living space for his children.  

Durk's father is still serving in jail

Dontay Banks abandoned Durk when he was just an infant. He had been under the influence of crime and violence. 

This lead to the arrest of Dontay. He is currently serving two life sentences without parole.

Lil Durk was arrested for gun violence and legal issues

Banks was convicted on a gun charge in 2011 and sentenced to three months in prison. He was released on bond later, only to be sent back to complete an additional 87 days. 

On June 5, 2013, Banks was arrested after allegedly tossing a loaded 40-caliber handgun into his car when police approached him on Chicago's South Green Lane. 

A felon charged him with unlawful use of a weapon. He was kept on a bond of $100,000.

Founder of record label 'Only the Family.'

Durk accepted a joint venture deal with his party Only the Family and Def Jam Recordings due to the success of "L's Anthem" and its follow-up single, "Dis Ain't What U Want" in 2013. 

His fourth mixtape, Signed to the Streets, was released on October 14, 2013, after a limited number of delays, exclusively on DatPiff.
