Only The Family, often abbreviated as OTF, is a collective and record label founded by Chicago rapper Lil Durk in the early 2010s. The label serves as a platform for nurturing talent from Durk's native Chicago, with an emphasis on artists who share his street-oriented lyrical themes and gritty, melodic beats that have come to define Chicago's drill music scene. Over the years, OTF has grown to include a roster of burgeoning rappers and producers who have helped shape the sound of Chicago hip-hop.

OTF's releases are often presented under the curatorial eye of Lil Durk, who has used the imprint to launch collaborative projects showcasing the label's talent while solidifying his role as a leader in the drill movement. Notable projects include the compilations "Only The Family - Lil Durk Presents: Loyal Bros" and its sequel "Loyal Bros 2," which feature appearances from label signees and affiliates. The collective has seen its fair share of hardship and loss, themes that are reflected in their music, most notably in songs like "Pistol Tottin," "Pull Up," and the charged collaboration "Riot" with G Herbo. The ethos of Only The Family is encapsulated by their 2019 compilation album, "Family Over Everything," highlighting their tight-knit allegiance and commitment to each other's success. With Lil Durk at the helm, OTF continues to impact the rap scene, both as a symbol of resilience in Chicago and as a beacon for raw, authentic storytelling.
