“Twin” by Roddy Ricch (ft. Lil Durk)
To call someone your “twin” in this context doesn’t mean that the two of you are siblings who were born at the same time. Rather, it points to the notion of the person you’re ‘twins’ with being someone who thinks and acts just like you. As presented in this song, so is the relationship between Roddy Ricch and Lil Durk.
But besides for that observation, this song is standard fare as far as these artists are concerned. That is to say for instance that in terms of being “twins”, one thing Ricch and Durk do have in common is owning “matching Benz”. Or put more bluntly, the vocalists proceed to brag primarily about their wealth and furthermore living the type of lives which the hip-hop community tends to idealize.
Release of “Twin”
On 14th November, 2022, “Twin” was formally released as a single. This was the third single from Ricch’s mixtape which goes by the title “Feed Tha Streets III”. The mixtape was released by Atlantic Recording Corporation and Bird Vision on 18th November, 2022.

Was “Twin” the first Collaboration between Roddy Ricch and Lil Durk?
The answer is no. “Twin” is actually their third official collaboration. The first was “Moonwalkin” on Ricch’s 2019 album “Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial”. The second project they worked together on was for DJ Khaled’s 2022 album, “GOD DID”. The track is titled “KEEP GOING”, which featured both Ricch and Durk alongside 21 Savage.
