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.

Chief Keef Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby momma text me at 5:18 (yah)
Bad bitch text me at 6:16 (bitch)
'Bout 7 A.M. she was neckin' me
Why she send these kissy face emojis to my phone? (huh?)
She diggin' hard on a nigga 'cause I'm goin' strong
She don't wanna smoke because what I smoke is strong
I'm in it all night, don't know when she goin' home
She gon' slop on my knob like a corn on the cob
But we can't go out in public, there's paparazzi to dodge
As I'm droppin' the top, told her shoot for the stars
I know she gon' love me because every woman does
As I slide in that water she get wet like a slide
No I cannot stop her, she gon' go like a ride
Keep that thing clean, it be smellin' like some Tide
But no I cannot wife her so it's lookin' like divide
She noticed me in the strip club throwin' racks
It was me and the gang, we was lookin' like a tribe
When she came to the crib it was lookin' like a vibe
Shawty got that head on her that I can't describe
I was busy slidin' in the 918 (skrrt)
Baby momma text me at 5:18 (yah)
Bad bitch text me at 6:16 (bitch)
'Bout 7 A.M. she was neckin' me
Why she send these kissy face emojis to my phone? (huh?)
She diggin' hard on a nigga 'cause I'm goin' strong
She don't wanna smoke because what I smoke is strong
I'm in it all night, don't know when she goin' home
Shawty gettin' free feels, put her hands on my wheel
But I can't really trust her, got my hands on the steel (bang)
I go in for the kill, rollin' like a ferris wheel
She get wetter than a ship, shawty got that Navy Seal
She was talkin' all tough, but I got her walkin' stiff
We had a bet that if I hit it good, she would make me meals
You would think it's homocide how I hit her with the steel
All this energy it took, I should hit her with a bill
She really want it all so I hit her with a lil'
Yeah she say she want some more, say that's all I got to give
No relationship, a friend zone is all I got to build
When it come to catchin' bodies, girl I got a lot of kills
I was busy slidin' in the 918 (skrrt)
Baby momma text me at 5:18 (yah)
Bad bitch text me at 6:16 (bitch)
'Bout 7 A.M. she was neckin' me
Why she send these kissy face emojis to my phone? (huh?)
She diggin' hard on a nigga 'cause I'm goin' strong
She don't wanna smoke because what I smoke is strong
I'm in it all night, don't know when she goin' home (bang!)
