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.

You don't have to worry, girl, it's just you and me (ayy, bang-bang, bang-bang)
The lyrics to Chief Keef's song Me are mainly discussing his relationship with a girl he's interested in. He talks about catching whatever she throws at him, teaching her a lesson. Suggesting that he's willing to catch whatever the girl is interested in him for, implying that he's being honest with her. Chief Keef also mentions that he's dressed in designer clothes while the girl he's interested in is naked. The girl goes up and down, so Chief Keef wants to get it, which is likely a suggestion to engage in sexual pleasure.
Chief Keef then goes on to say that he can't eat it like groceries, indicating that he may not have interest in performing oral sex with her. He then proceeds to discuss his indulgence in lean and smoking OG, but reassures the girl that she doesn't have to worry about anyone else, it's just the two of them. Towards the end, Chief Keef lets the girl know that he can pick her up in his coupe, and reminds her that he has enough money to take care of her. The girl has nothing to worry about with him, because Chief Keef is used to being in the spotlight.
