He began rapping in 2017 as Lil Yeat, and, after a slew of singles, released his first EP, Deep Blue Strips, in late 2018. In 2019, Yeat would gain further publicity after “Stay Up,” the lead single off his second project and first mixtape, Wake Up Call, received a music video on the popular YouTube channel ELEVATOR.
Smith released Different Creature, a collaborative EP with Dutch producer Clibbo, on July 18, 2019, to positive feedback. Yeat garnered further attention after dropping his second mixtape, I’m So Me, at the conclusion of the year, collaborating with popular producers like Wheezy, Brandon Finessin, and 10Fifty, among others. Yeat continued to gain traction throughout 2020, releasing two EPs meant to hold fans over until Different Creature 2. The project was scrapped as he worked through label issues before becoming independent in 2021.
Fully in control of his output, Yeat began releasing a barrage of music, including twenty-track albums and countless singles. Yeat saw a major jump in support after his song “Sorry Bout That” blew up on TikTok. Subsequent hits like “Money Twerk” and “Get Busy” as well as a shout-out from Drake helped reinforce his newfound success. On August 5, 2021, Yeat released his newest EP, Trëndi.
In late 2021, Yeat would release his most popular album Up 2 Më and then would later drop 2 Älive and its deluxe, 2 Alivë (Geëk Pack)

Yeat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bag after bag after bag, I can't stop
Yerc after Perc' after Yerc, I can't stop
Hopped inside the Cayenne, boot it up and then I fly
On the phone with my demon, we build it up and then retire
Toxic, toxic, yeah, came in that bitch and we fired
Walk on the muhfuckin' ceiling, I'm bootin' up, baby, the air make me fly
I would go get me more money, more money, more money, more money, oh, damn
I bought a crib in the sky (yeah, whoa)
Twenty-four seven, this bitch 'bout to die (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Suckin' and lickin', more junky', more bankin'
I run up this bitch with the big ol' tanky
The big body whip, 'bout to pull out, yeah
'bout to sewrve on the side, 'bout to pull up and crank it
I'm gonna pull up the tank
I got the big ol' whips, got the big ol' Glocks
Got the big ol' stick with a binkie
You gon' get whacked, you gon' get whacked like a spanking
I been swervin' on this Earth
Diamonds in my pinkie, yeah, the diamonds on my hair
Don't know why I did this shit, just heard it, then I do it
I don't like all that talkin' back and forth, just keep it murmur
Bye-bye, huh, fuckin' swerve
Yeah, I learned my lesson, for these jakes, I see they shwerms
Thought you was gon' get eat up like a fish get eaten by worm
R-I-P to the Dub man, they gon' try to get that on serve
Bag after bag after bag, I can't stop
Yerc after Perc' after Yerc, I can't stop
Hopped inside the Cayenne, boot it up and then I fly
On the phone with my demon, we build it up and then retire
Toxic, toxic, yeah, came in that bitch and we fired
Walk on the muhfuckin' ceiling, I'm bootin' up, baby, the air make me fly
Yeah, they gon' copy my trend, they gon' copy my side, they gon' copy the guy
I would go get me more money, more money, more money, more money, oh, damn
The lyrics to Yëat's song "Can't stop it" depict a lifestyle of excess and indulgence. The repeated phrase "bag after bag after bag" suggests a relentless pursuit of material possessions, while "Yerc after Perc' after Yerc" refers to the use of drugs such as codeine (Yerc) and Percocet (Perc). The lyrics also mention hopping into a Cayenne (referring to a luxury car) and flying, symbolizing a sense of freedom and escape from reality. The reference to being on the phone with a demon suggests a connection to the darker side of one's psyche, possibly alluding to the artist's internal struggles or temptations. The idea of walking on the ceiling and the air making the singer fly can be interpreted as a metaphor for being untethered and unconstrained by societal norms.
The lyrics also touch upon the concept of imitation and copying. The line "they gon' copy my trend, they gon' copy my side, they gon' copy the guy" suggests that the artist is aware of their influence and ability to inspire others to imitate their style and behavior. The constant desire for more money is highlighted with the repetition of "more money, more money, more money, more money, oh, damn," indicating a never-ending pursuit of wealth and material gain.
Overall, "Can't stop it" reflects a hedonistic and rebellious mindset, embracing a lifestyle of extravagance, substance abuse, and the pursuit of pleasure.
