Coke Boy Baby! After Def Jam’s new EVP, Pecas posted a photo of himself, French Montana, Chinx Drugz, and Lil Durk, the secret was out. The “Dis’ Ain’t What U Want” rapper, had signed with French. Lil Durk says that he had to make a name of his own, so he had to branch off from GBE. “Everybody’s family, self made. [But] you gotta build your own face at the end. You going to have to put your own money in your pocket. I’m my own boss, I don’t wait on anybody, so I decided to do me. Get my own money and live it up,” says Durk Banks (government). Good move! Drop down bottom to see how Frenchie got him to sign.

You just got signed to Coke Boys. Congrats. What’s your relationship with French Montana?
That’s my homie, he’s like a big brother to me. He talks to me every day, I call him every day and talk about everything music-wise.

How did you two meet?
Actually we was just politicking through Twitter, then I came up here to get some Slowbucks gear. I started working with Slowbucks, then they introduced me to him.

What advice has French given you?
To stay at it and keep your style, and don’t try to follow other people’s footsteps.

How did he convince you to sign with him?
He called me and motivated me. He told me, like, “I’m not forcing you, but when you ready to move just holla at me.” The music and the stuff I’m doing is good, but sometimes you feel like you’re at a standstill and you just need that representative. Like you got to get embraced by somebody, ’cause at the end of the day it’s all about publicity. You’re going to need it, I don’t care who you are.
