"All My Life" is a song by American rapperLil Durk featuring fellow American rapperJ. Cole. It was released throughOnly the Family,Alamo Records, andSony Music as the lead single from the former's eighth studio album,Almost Healed, on May 12, 2023. It was written alongsideRocco Did It Again!,Ryan Ogren,LunchMoney Lewis, Theron Thomas ofR. City, and producerDr. Luke. It features uncredited vocals from the young choir.

On October 13, 2023, two remixes of the song were released, respectively withBurna Boy andStray Kids; the latter omits J. Cole.^[1] The song wonBest Melodic Rap Performance at the66th Annual Grammy Awards, making it Durk's first Grammy and J. Cole's second.

Background

[edit]

On April 20, 2023, in an interview withXXL, Durk talked about the song and his collaboration with Cole on it:

Definitely got J. Cole on "All My Life." It's just a rap that's just showing you what I been going through. What I been doing lately. Trying to change how I am.Dr. Luke produced it. We were just trying to figure out like what's the right person to put on it. 'Cause it's one of those songs where if it's not the right person to do the second verse... I feel like Cole can bring the energy that I'm looking for to it. So, if it wasn't J. Cole, it'd be[Kanye], but Ye, he tucked away somewhere.^[2]

On the same day that the song was released, Durk was interviewed live byComplex, in which he talked about working with Cole, in which he felt that "he smoked my ass on that one, for one — barely" and added that "that barely happens".^[3] Exactly ten days before its release, Durk posted a video that Cole took of them while shooting its music video, in which they were accompanied by children singing the chorus, which is what it is on the official version.^[4]

Composition and lyrics

[edit]

"All My Life" sees Durk trade his usual energeticdrill style for more introspective production, which was considered a departure from his regular style of music, and contains the vocals of a young choir as he raps about the criticism that he has faced: "I decided I had to finish, but the media called me a menace / I done sat with the mayor and politicians, I'm tryna change the image / You can't blame my past no more, I come from the trenches".^[5] He raps about social and community changes as he touches on abusing drugs, paying child support, and children wanting to cause self-harm, speaking on what he has lately been trying to do to help the world change for the better.^[6] Cole raps about young rappers dying before they reach a big level of fame in his verse.^[7]

Music video

[edit]

The official music video for "All My Life", directed by Steve Cannon, was released alongside the song on May 12, 2023.^[8] It sees Durk and Cole with a choir of children singing the chorus of the song.^[9] The two artists stand on a porch and dance in a yard, as well as play catch with some of the children.^[10]
