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 ↴
Ayy, Sah, I fuck with you, shorty, I swear to god, shorty (ayy, ayy)
Sharp like a dagger, I got swagger
Oh, what do you know, it's a rich ass nigga
Coupe fly past ya, white like Casper
Hide from the crazy hoe while she might harass us
On my dick flashin', gassed up in the master
Left wrist plasma, my chains gave me asthma (Bling)
Yeah, I love my ho, but I don't love 'em that much to harrass 'em
Man, these bitches L
She wanna Panamera
Pulled the cat in the Trackhawk, got us Tia and Tamera
Ayy, felonies
Ayy, I got felonies
Ayy, I smoke hella weed
Ayy, what's your word it don't matter to me
Ayy, bring them bands out
Ayy, I can make a ho let up
Ayy, lil nigga what's the matter?
Ayy, heard you be pissed get a new bladder, ayy
Ayy, ayy, back flip off the ladder
Nigga was angry, pulled out the whips then he got madder, ayy
I got the Urus doin' 220, can't go no faster
All These chains up on my neck but I own my masters
Ayy, ayy, ayy (bling, bling, bling)
Ayy, ayy, ayy (bling, bling, bling)
Ayy, ayy, ayy (bling, bling, bling)
Ayy, ayy, ayy (bling, bling, bling)
I'm a big timer
Now, bitch, time's up
Got a chopstick same size as Kevin Hart
But it would pick Big Sean up
Pockets on Big Momma
Tell me what they on and I'mma
Pull up in the Lamb', bitch
No propaganda, we'll be wavin' llamas
I still fry balogna
This lil' bitch so weird
That she gotta meet me around the corner
I just pulled up in that sports truck
With my brothers Jonas
Rest in peace Blood, Tray Savage, Cap, Fredo
Them my fuckin' homies
She be fuckin' homies
When I was broke, I was never lonely
The police think they run up on me
Bitch, they ain't got nothin' on me
Thought they was gonna get my forty
Cops tried to kill me as a juvie
Now, I got a car like Birdman
Movin' to the A, I'ma ride a Dulie
Nigga you oochie-couchie
Smokin' on Tookie-Tookie
And we gotta send his ass clips
You come join this groovy movie
The bitch got booty-booty
I'm like Suhki-Suhki

Bitch came in the crib and said "ooh, he bougie"

From the opening lyrics, "Sharp like a dagger, I got swagger," Keef portrays himself as dominant in both style and personality. He notes his wealth through lines like, "Oh, what do you know, it's a rich ass nigga," and his ability to afford expensive cars like a Urus and a Porsche Panamera, which he references in the line, "She wanna Panamera, pulled the cat in the Trackhawk, got us Tia and Tamera."
Additionally, the lyrics feature a reference to Big Sean, who Keef says he could "pick up" with a "chopstick same size as Kevin Hart." The references to Kevin Hart's height and Big Sean's comparatively smaller stature could be interpreted as a show of Keef's power and dominance over other rappers.

While he acknowledges these struggles, he emphasizes his current success and ability to provide for himself and his loved ones, including references to his "brothers Jonas."
