No Auto Durk is an album by rapper, Lil Durk & producer, Metro Boomin. It was initially announced in February 2020 via Instagram.
In an interview with Beats 1, Durk spoke about working with Metro Boomin:
Metro don’t make himself highly accessible. For you to be different, to have Metro, it’s like bet, you won. […] Everybody don’t get a Metro by themselves.
In the same interview, he described the sound of the album as being “turned up” and teased possible features from close collaborators: Young Thug, Future, Gunna, Lil Baby & Meek Mill.
Yeah, that’s something me and Metro definitely talked about. And ‘til this day we talk about it. You never know. I just really put a lot of thought into a lot of stuff now where it’s like, could this work? Could this not work? With Metro, he one of the producers that’s gon’ tell you anyway. I don’t want a bunch of yes men around. Want motherfucker tell you, “That’s weak” or “That shit ass.”
