<… Read Full Bio ↴A multimedia artist, filmmaker and musician who hails from Jersey, NJ.
Between mixtapes, producing, contemporary art pieces and flight hopping from state to state Yeek has finally been able to drop his first solo music video which he directed and edited himself.
I would probably describe my style as 'imaginative'. My main influences come from cartoon style illustrations, funk music, & the 90s hip-hop culture & 90s hardcore American punk culture. I would have to say the major difference between LA & Florida is that the people are meaner in Florida & that helped me grow as person. I was born in Jersey City, raised in Florida." - YEEK

YEEK Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whole gang gotta eat
Bouta have a whole feast
Been down but look at me now (look at me now)
I don′t know nothing about you
Nothing about you
But you know all about me
Checks they come in and come out (come in, come out)
Whole gang gotta eat
Bouta have a whole feast
Been down but look at me now (look at me now)
New York City in the morning
LA at Bo′s
Usually with the homegirls
Tapping in with the bros
Ex lovers sick at me
I don't know what for
I don't know what for
Checks they come in and come out (come in, come out)
Whole gang gotta eat
Bouta have a whole feast
Been down but look at me now (look at me now)
Checks they come in and come out (come in, come out)
Whole gang gotta eat
Bouta have a whole feast
Been down but look at me now (look at me now)
The song "Valencia" by YEEK is a reflection on the different aspects of the artist's life, including his relationship with money, his career, and his social life. The lyrics suggest that YEEK is experiencing newfound fame and success, as evidenced by the lines "been down but look at me now." However, despite his financial success and the appearance of happiness with "gold teeth," the artist admits that he is not truly happy.
The line "checks they come in and come out" appears throughout the song, indicating YEEK's focus on financial stability and the ephemerality of money. It is also a play on words- "checks" can refer to both money and checking in/checking out of social situations. The desire for financial stability is also highlighted in the line "whole gang gotta eat, bouta have a whole feast," suggesting the artist wants to provide financial support for those around him.
YEIK also touches on his social life, mentioning his travels to New York City and Los Angeles and spending time with both male and female friends. However, there is also a hint of tension in his relationships, as former lovers are "sick" at him, and he is unsure why.
Overall, "Valencia" is a reflection on the complex aspects of YEEK's life, including money, fame, and relationships. The lyrics suggest a desire for financial security and a need to balance career obligations with personal relationships, while also acknowledging that material success does not necessarily equate to happiness.
