Lil Durk made a promise to Young Thug that he'd never reveal the story behind the two rappers' iconic 2018 meme, which features the pair looking intensely at what appears to be a computer screen during a studio session.

The Chicago rapper touched on the viral moment during a new interview on DJ Akademiks' Off The Record podcast.

“What the fuck was y’all looking at?” Akademiks asked, to which Durk replied: “He told me not to tell nobody.”

Ak responded: “That’s the same thing he said. Y’all must have been watching some porn.”
