Carlton Dequan Weekly-Williams (December 6, 1993 – August 4, 2020), known professionally as FBG Duck,[note 1] was an American rapper.[10][11] He is regarded as one of the most influential figures in the development of Chicago drill music during the 2010s. FBG Duck rose to prominence with his gritty lyrics and aggressive style, often reflecting his experiences with street life and gang rivalries. He gained a following for his storytelling and his controversial diss tracks which earned him the nickname "Bully of Chiraq" with his music primarily spanning drill, trap, and hip-hop. Critics recognize him as a pivotal artist in the evolution of drill, a genre that gained mainstream traction in the late 2010s.[10][12][13]

Born in Chicago, Illinois, Williams grew up in the Woodlawn neighborhood, a community known for its gang activity.[10] He began releasing music around 2011, sharing tracks on platforms like YouTube and SoundCloud, where he cultivated an early following.[11][14] He released his debut mixtape, Look At Me, in 2013. He followed up with mixtapes including Clout Life (2014), Different Personalities (2015), This How I'm Coming (2016), Different Personalities 2 (2017), and This How I'm Coming 2 (2017) which included his breakout single "Slide". That song amassed millions of views and streams and earned him a deal with Sony Music.[15] He later remixed the track with 21 Savage.[16] He released his debut studio album, Big Clout, in 2018.[17] FBG Duck often collaborated with fellow Chicago artists and was closely tied to the Fly Boy Gang (FBG) and the Tookaville faction of the Gangster Disciples.[18]

Throughout his career, FBG Duck was involved in controversies related to his gang affiliations and the provocative content of his music. His lyrics frequently included disses aimed at rival gangs, such as the O-Block faction of the Black Disciples. On August 4, 2020, at the age of 26, FBG Duck was fatally shot in a targeted attack in Chicago's Gold Coast neighborhood.[19] Six suspects were arrested and, in 2024, convicted of his murder, receiving life sentences without parole.[20] His EP, He Back, was released posthumously in September 2020.[21]

[edit]
Woodlawn, Chicago, where Williams grew up.

He described himself as a "problem child," often getting into fights and causing trouble, a behavior he attributed to the pain of losing loved ones. Duck recalled in an interview with XXL, "In my grandma's basement with my cousins, we would have little fake rap battles with each other." These rap battles with family members were an early influence on Duck's interest in music and hip-hop.[28]

Musical style

[edit]

FBG Duck's music was established in the drill subgenre, described by its dark, aggressive beats and lyrics. His style detailing street life, violence, and personal struggles.[55] Bo Deal, his mentor, likened him to "the DMX of drill" for his energy.[56] Influenced by Jay-Z, he brought unique to his tracks, blending trap elements with gangsta rap themes.[10][57] His success single "Slide" represent this way, with its intimidating production and confrontational lyrics.[58]

Public image and feuds

[edit]

FBG Duck's public image was defined by his unapologetic persona and association with the Fly Boy Gang, which gave rise to intense rivalries within Chicago's drill scene. Among his most prominent feuds were conflicts with members of the Black Disciples, particularly after the release of "Dead Bitches", a single that taunted deceased rivals.[59] Federal investigators noted that diss tracks between Duck and O-Block artists "fueled violence on the streets", with a reported $100,000 bounty placed on his life.[60] His mother, LaSheena Weekly, rejected portrayals of her son as solely a gang figure, emphasizing his role as a father of four and his efforts to leave street life behind.[61] Her activism, including a 2024 lawsuit against Lil Durk and King Von's estate, has kept Duck's story in the public eye, highlighting issues of justice and systemic inequality.[62]

Activism and community work

He partnered with Bo Deal's "2020 Vision" program, which used credible messengers to reduce violence and educate youth about COVID-19.[63] In an Instagram video posted shortly before his death, he condemned shootings in front of children, expressing fear of being killed in front of his own.[64] He called for a better path for young people. Duck also supported peace initiatives on Chicago's South Side, donated to families affected by gun violence, and collaborated with local organizers to distribute school supplies and meals during the summer of 2020.[64] Friends speaking to The TRiiBE said that Duck "was trying to change" and make a real break from street life and gang ties before his death, though they all agreed it was an uphill struggle.[65]

In 2014, FBG Duck was briefly romantically involved with Kori Harvey. Following their breakup, Harvey began dating Trey5, a member of the Black Disciples and brother of King Von and Bruh Bruh. According to Duck, Harvey stabbed him in the abdomen during their relationship; he later displayed the resulting scar in the official music video for "Who the Fuck Is Dude" by Edai and King Lil Jay. FBG Duck began a relationship with Dateisha House in 2017; the two remained together until their breakup in April 2020.[68] Shortly afterward, he entered a relationship with Cashae Williams in 2020. Williams was with him at the time of his fatal shooting later that year and later testified during the related trial.[69]
