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)
On September 9th, 2022, Yeat dropped his highly anticipated EP, Lyfë, which had a feature from Lil Uzi Vert and collaborations with producers such as BNYX and collective Working On Dying.
On February 19th, 2023, Yeat posted a tracklist for Lyfë's deluxe version AftërLyfe on his Instagram story. On February 24th, 2023, AftërLyfe was released with a feature from YoungBoy Never Broke Again and more collaborations with BNYX, Working On Dying, dulio and more prominent producers.

The song "Luh Gëek" by Yeat is a boisterous proclamation of wealth and success. From the start, we hear the lyrics "Big boy Lamb', I'm in the big boy truck," indicating the singer's ownership of extravagant vehicles. The theme of wealth carries throughout the song, with mentions of "big boy cash" and "big boy bucks" denoting great sums of money. The singer brags about spending "a hundred bands on some fucking bracelets," and forgetting that he had made a hundred thousand dollars. He is "geekin' on these Percs," indicating drug use, and says he is "geeked out my body," suggesting he is so high that he is out of touch with reality. The singer is clearly enamored with his wealth and success, with the refrain "It's icy, yeah, icy, yeah" indicating the luxurious ice, or diamonds, he possesses. He has risen from a time of poverty, saying "I ain't used to have nothin'," and now he is "in the Tonka, parked outside," an image of someone who has truly made it.
The singer is dismissive of those who do not share his wealth, saying "You don't make no money, you ain't go no bodies" and "You don't get no fucking money, you don't get no fucking fame." He is revelling in his success and has no time for those who are not on his level. He also appears to have some resentment towards those who have switched sides, saying "How the fuck my brothers switch up on me? Yeah, why you cappin'? Boy, you fucked up 'cause I'm rich now, I don't give a fuck what happen." The message is clear: success breeds loyalty, and he sees it as a betrayal when that loyalty is not reciprocated.
One of the interesting things about the song is the use of the word "geek" as a descriptor for someone who is high on drugs. This is a lesser-known slang term and adds to the unique quality of the lyrics. Additionally, the song's producer, GeoGotTheBands, is acknowledged in the opening line, giving him credit for his contributions. There is also a reference to the rapper Luh Crank, indicating a connection to the rap world beyond Yeat. The song has over a million views on YouTube, demonstrating its popularity. Finally, the lyrics are heavily influenced by trap music, a subgenre of hip hop that originated in the Southern United States and is known for its focus on drugs, hustling, and flashy lifestyles.
