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 ↴
I ain't gotta wait till i get up
I been in this shit since a pup
Only one's i trust is just us
Please do not fuck with me, cuz
You gon be the victim, I'm the sus-pect
Shawty say, she on me, got a crush
She ain't even got her ass crush-ed, yet
How much cock would your main bitch suck if your bitch sucked cock? How much?
How many miles can we hit with 300 shots? (how many?)
While a dark skin bitch from kingston, callin me a bombaclot
Nah this ain't my hood bitch you want this jug or nah
Ima wide reciever ima go long, (go long) (aye)
Just hopped out in a no-go zone
Just left my car in a tow zone
She like the rock she wanna get choked on
Gotta take my son on the jet wimme
Don't bounce by the man he upset wimme
Bitch just texted me saying "you ain't that busy"
Told the bitch god came down & sat wimme
It's 7 in the morning, I'm still up
I ain't gotta wait till i get up
I been in this shit since a pup
Only one's i trust is just us
Please do not fuck with me, cuz
You gon be the victim, I'm the sus-pect
Shawty say, she on me, got a crush
She ain't even got her ass crush-ed, yet
I've never bought me a lion
Who selling one? I'm buyin
My bitch here stay lyin
I don't lie bitch I get money
I'm feeling like Kid Cudi
[?]
No Keef ain't gonna sweat it
I'm just gon' go get it
Got a new dog, gon' pet it
You don't like me, go on say it
Sosa baby is you leaning?
Bitch you should learn your manners
Take magazines lil nigga, all I gotta do is flip it
She's in my ex's DM, like all we gotta do is kick it
I'm [?] this blueprint, but did i have to mention
Chasin after this chicken, and
I'm still waiting to get a sentence
Its 7 in the morning, I'm still up
I ain't gotta wait till i get up
I been in this shit since a pup
Only one's i trust is just us
Please do not fuck with me, cuz
You gon be the victim, I'm the sus-pect
Shawty say, she on me, got a crush
She ain't even got her ass crush-ed, yet
The lyrics of "Yet" by Chief Keef reflect the artist's relentless drive and intensity towards his craft. The opening line "It's 7 in the morning, I'm still up" implies that Chief Keef has been grinding all night and hasn't slept yet. He emphasizes his hunger and commitment to his work by saying, "I ain't gotta wait till I get up. I've been in this shit since a pup," indicating that he's been hustling from a young age and has a deep-rooted passion for what he does.
Throughout the song, Chief Keef mentions the people he trusts, highlighting his loyalty towards them. He also warns others, "Please do not fuck with me cuz you gon be the victim, I'm the suspect," suggesting that he's not one to be messed with or taken lightly. The song's title, "Yet," can be interpreted as a reminder that while Chief Keef has achieved a lot so far, there is still more to come from him.
The rest of the lyrics have Chief Keef flexing his riches and success, and challenging those who doubt or go against him. He also casually drops references to drugs and sex, which can be interpreted as part of his lifestyle, but it's also worth noting the lyrics' explicit nature.

It's 7 in the morning, I'm still up
I haven't slept yet and it's already 7am
I ain't gotta wait till i get up
I don't have to wait until I wake up to do what I want
I been in this shit since a pup
I've been in this game for a long time, since I was young
Only one's i trust is just us
I only trust a select few people, my inner circle
Please do not fuck with me, cuz
Don't mess with me because I won't hesitate to retaliate
You gon be the victim, I'm the sus-pect
If you cross me, you'll be the one to suffer and I'll be the one who looks guilty
Shawty say, she on me, got a crush
This girl likes me and is interested in me
She ain't even got her ass crush-ed, yet
She hasn't even experienced the full extent of my influence on her yet
