Lil Dicky: Last News

Travis Kelce doesn’t know how he ended up with Taylor Swift. LOLz!

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large “Dave” and Lil Dicky fans, the artist’s first new music in eight years is finally coming to streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music later this year. Dave Burd, the “Dave” star/exec producer and rapper also known as Lil Dicky, is compiling tracks, and expanding other music cues, from the first three seasons of “Dave” that he plans to release shortly. The album would serve somewhat as a “Dave” soundtrack but also as Lil Dicky’s first official release since 2015’s “Professional Rapper,” which was certified Gold and hit No. 1 on the Billboard Top Rap Albums chart. “I’ve been making music ever since then,” Burd said. “I realized this year, as I took a step back and looked at all the different music that’s made it into the first three seasons of the show, there’s enough here, a great body of work and a project that I can put out as a soundtrack. I think this is such a better representation of Lil Dicky the musical artist than, honestly, my first album even was. People are always like, ‘when can I get that song?’ I think this will be a cool thing for fans who have watched the show. And for people who have never even seen the show, I think they’ll enjoy listening to this as like a body of music.”

Brad Pitt and Drake popped up together in an unexpected place this week: the small screen. The A-listers made surprise cameos in Wednesday's season three finale of on FXX, joining a long list of celebrity guests to appear on Dave Burd's — aka Lil Dicky — comedy series. Rachel McAdams was also featured in the finale, continuing an ongoing story arc that has seen her guest as herself in three episodes this season. Playing a fictionalized version of himself, Pitt's role marks his first return to a scripted TV series since a singular episode of in 2001.

The first season of “Dave” made rapper Lil Dicky—real name Dave Burd—more powerful than his non-believers could have ever imagined. In the crowded landscape of TV, the series that riffs on Burd’s dreams of being the biggest rapper in the world became FX’s most-watched comedy of all time, beating out previous favorites like “Atlanta” among others.

While shooting his hit FXX series Dave, Lil Dicky had to take elaborate efforts to protect his privates from public view. In the series, Dave Burd plays a quasi-version of himself, Dave, who is on the rise to stardom as Lil Dicky the rapper.

Lil Dicky’s FXX show is scoring some not so lil viewership numbers.
