"Dead Bitches" is a disstrack by American rapper FBG Duck, released as a single on July 10, 2020, through Clout Boyz Inc, produced by Chew Chew and Rocktee.[1] The track is a prominent example of drill music, characterized by its aggressive lyrics and heavy bass. The song serves as a diss track targeting deceased members of rival gangs, notably O-Block, including T-Roy, Odee, and others, and is considered one of the most provocative diss tracks in Chicago's drill scene.[2] Released less than a month before FBG Duck's murder on August 4, 2020, "Dead Bitches" is often cited for its haunting tone and reflection of the rapper's fatalistic mindset amid ongoing gang rivalries.[3]
Background
[edit]"Dead Bitches" was released during a period of heightened tension between FBG Duck's Fly Boy Gang (affiliated with the Gangster Disciples' Tookaville faction) and rival Black Disciples-affiliated groups, particularly O-Block. The song followed FBG Duck's 2018 hit "Slide" and his 2019 "Exposing Me (Remix)" with Rooga, both of which fueled his rivalry with O-Block and Only the Family (OTF). Prior to "Dead Bitches," FBG Duck released "Chicago Legends," a track perceived as a peace offering to de-escalate gang conflicts. However, ongoing provocations, including King Von's disses and social media taunts, prompted Duck to return to confrontational lyrics.[4][3]
Lyrics and themes
[edit]The lyrics of "Dead Bitches" are explicitly confrontational, with FBG Duck naming and disrespecting deceased members of rival gangs, including T-Roy, Odee, J-Money, Lil Boo, Sheroid, D-Thang, and others. Lines such as "Said I wasn't gon' diss the dead and okay, I did it / But nigga, fuck T-Roy and Odee, them dead bitches" and "I go to D-Thang grave and take a piss on that shit" are cited as particularly provocative. The track also references FBG Duck's slain brother, FBG Brick, dismissing rivals' mentions of him.[4][3]
