Cozart attended Dulles Elementary School and later Banner High School on Chicago's South Side, which is where he got his career start. In December 2011, he was arrested on a weapons charge (aggravated unlawful use of a weapon) and put under house arrest at his grandmother's home. While under house arrest, Cozart posted several videos to his YouTube account. The attention he received grew in the short time between the release of several mixtapes and several music videos, including "Bang," "3Hunna," and "I Don't Like." After two locally successful mixtapes, "I Don't Like" became a local hit in Chicago. It also caught fellow Chicago rapper Kanye West's attention, and West organized a remix of the song along with rappers Pusha T, Jadakiss, and Big Sean. On July 7, 2012, it was announced that Chief Keef would be performing at the 2012 Lollapalooza music festival.
In the following years, Keef has served up a continuous stream of releases, such as Back From the Dead 2 (2014), Bang 3 (2015), and Thot Breaker (2017). Critics have cited Chief Keef as a major influence on contemporary hip hop through his impact on artists such as Lil Uzi Vert, 21 Savage, Tupac and various collaborations.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm a throw this money while you get it
You say you want this money, come and get it
I throw this shit up 'cause I get it
Call your friend up and tell her get it
I'm a fuck around, come and get it
She gon' see me in this big building
That's when she gon' learn a nigga get it
When I was 16 I knew something
That's when I knew I had to get it
Fuck that lyin' no, ask you somethin'
Let my dogs out on ya, let 'em get it (bang)
Nigga do something, move something
I'm in a strip club, still stuntin'
Ten thousand on a futon
I'm Margiela walking, oh yeah
I'm in a strip club throwin' Benjis
They let us in this bitch with the semi
I fuck around and ice out the Fendi
I fuck around and pipe out a Bentley
I fuck around and platinum on my semis
I fuck around and platinum not an Emmy
And my chopper hit the folks I call 'em Jimmy
Make it sway through your block don't let it empty
I ain't even tripping girl I get it
I'm a throw this money while you get it
You say you want this money, come and get it
I throw this shit up 'cause I get it
Call your friend up and tell her get it
I'm a fuck around, come and get it
She gon' see me in this big building
That's when she gon' learn a nigga get it
I done fell in love with foreign whips
I done got used to foreign trips
I done went to Paris for some coats (Louis)
Come and get it if you want some smoke
Baby call your friend tell her slide
Me and this bitch throwing racks all night
We see the pressure from the engine of the pipe
All of this bitch lookin' flyer than a kite
Hit a nigga bitch tell her come over
She see it's me on every fuckin' poster
And you know my whip game proper
I don't really let the bitch chauffeur
I'm pourin' up more pints than a doctor
Tell 'em hold the motherfuckin' boxers
I be ganja smokin' just like a rasta
Get it at the same time with my partner
I ain't even tripping girl I get it
I'm a throw this money while you get it
You say you want this money, come and get it
I throw this shit up 'cause I get it
Call your friend up and tell her get it
I'm a fuck around, come and get it
She gon' see me in this big building
That's when she gon' learn a nigga get it
