He is a member of Trippie Redd’s 1400/800 crew. His music is a blend of cloud rap and trap and features him melodically rapping and singing over equally melodic instrumentals. His style has commonly been compared to that of Californian rapper D Savage, although the two don’t seem bothered by the comparisons and have collaborated together multiple times, with a collaborative project by the two in the works. K Suave started uploading music to his SoundCloud in early 2014, with his first real song being “Suave Freestyle,” released March 6, 2014. All of his early work has since been deleted, and the oldest song still public on his SoundCloud is “Big body,” released on November 25, 2017. K Suave’s first big break came in early 2019, on March 26, 2019, when the music video for his song “Remix?” was uploaded to the 1400 800 GANG YouTube channel—a channel run by Trippie Redd which features music videos from himself and other 1400/800 members. This quickly became one of Suave’s biggest songs, totaling more than 75,000 views. He appeared on the channel a second time in May of the same year, with the music video for “Black Mirror.”

Overall Meaning

The introduction of K Suave's song "You Know It" begins with a well-known nursery rhyme, Ring Around the Rosy. This nursery rhyme is often associated with the bubonic plague that occurred in Europe in the 17th century. The "Ring around the rosy" refers to the red rash that appeared on the skin of plague victims, the "Pocket full of posies" refers to the herbs and flowers people thought would ward off the disease, and the "Ashes, ashes, we all fall down" refers to the dead bodies being burned. It seems as though the song is drawing a connection between the darkness of the nursery rhyme and the violent lifestyle that is often portrayed in rap music.

The lyrics of the song are essentially about K Suave's success in the rap game and his newfound wealth. He boasts about the money that he has and how his "bitch love me, that's for sure." K Suave also talks about the dangers that come along with his lifestyle, such as keeping his pistol close and knowing that "bullets got no love." He also mentions that he has to be selective about who he talks to, as people are constantly trying to reach out to him now that he's famous. The chorus repeats the phrase "you know it" over and over again, almost like a mantra, emphasizing that K Suave knows he's successful and won't let anyone bring him down.

Overall, K Suave's "You Know It" seems to be a boastful anthem about his success, but there are also undertones of the darker side of the rap industry and the dangers that come with it.

Line by Line Meaning

Ring around the rosy
I'm referencing the children's rhyme Ring Around the Rosie, which is about the Black Plague, a deadly disease. It's a nod to my grim outlook on life and my willingness to use violence as a means of survival.

Pocket full of posies
Posies were flowers that people stuffed in their pockets to mask the smell of death during the plague. In my case, I have weapons on me at all times, ready to defend myself and my riches.

Ashes, ashes
This part of the rhyme signifies the end of life, and in my world, I've seen plenty of death. I'm always prepared for the worst, and I know that even if I fall, I'll leave an impact.

We all fall down
No one is invincible. I recognize that my actions could have dire consequences, but I'm willing to risk it for the chance at success.

La, la, la, la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la
This is just a filler line in the original rhyme, but for me, it represents a carefree attitude despite the harsh reality of life. I'll keep pushing forward, no matter what obstacles come my way.

Hey, uh
I'm transitioning from the nursery rhyme to my own song, setting the stage for the hard-hitting lyrics to come.

Drip too hard
I'm living my best life and have accumulated great wealth, but I'm also aware that my success has made me a target for envy and violence.

Don't get too close, chopper close, my pistol close
I have weapons on me at all times and will use them if I feel threatened. I don't trust anyone and always stay alert.

Know I keep them missiles close
This line reinforces the previous one about having weapons near, specifically highlighting missiles. It's a warning to anyone who might cross me that I'm not afraid to use deadly force.

Your bitch love me, that's for sure
I'm a player and women are drawn to my success and image. I'm confident in my abilities to attract and keep partners.

Hundreds on me and you know
I have a lot of money on me at all times, and everyone knows it. It's a flex and a way to show that I'm not afraid to flaunt my wealth.

Get the bread, count the loaf
I focus on earning and saving money. I don't waste time on unnecessary expenses and am always looking to increase my fortune.

You know, yeah, uh, you know it Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, you know it Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know it Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, you know it
I'm repeating the chorus multiple times to emphasize that everyone knows I'm wealthy, dangerous, and charismatic. I'm making it clear that I'm in control of my life and unafraid of the consequences.
