Only The Family

Only The Family, known as OTF, is a Chicago-based rap collective and record label founded by rapper Lil Durk in 2010. Rooted in the city's drill scene, OTF grew from a crew of friends and collaborators into a formal label operation, releasing a string of compilation projects that spotlight its roster alongside Durk himself. The music leans into the hard-edged, street-focused storytelling associated with Chicago drill, with tracks like «No Auto Durk», «Hellcats & Trackhawks» and «Turkey Season» reflecting the collective's core sound.

Over time OTF has signed and developed a rotating cast of Chicago-connected artists, including names such as Doodie Lo, Booka600, Chuckyy and YFG FATSO, giving the label a reputation as a pipeline for new Chicago drill talent. The group's compilation releases have served as a vehicle for both established and rising members to reach wider audiences under a shared banner.

OTF's distribution ties to Sony Music Entertainment have helped extend the label's reach beyond an independent operation, positioning it within the broader major-label ecosystem while retaining its street-level identity. Songs such as «Remembrance» and «Problems» touch on loss and hardship that run through much of the collective's catalogue, reflecting the personal and communal stakes behind the OTF name, which stands for loyalty to the crew Durk built his career alongside.
