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)

The lyrics to Yeat's song "Rackz" speak about money, success, and paranoia. The lines "Yeah, everybody stabbed my back" and "I don't know what they sayin' behind my back / And you know I ain't goin' for that" suggest that the rapper has been betrayed in the past and is cautious about who he trusts. However, he emphasizes that money and material possessions, such as "big money, big cars" and "diamonds from Eliantte," will never betray him like people have. The lines "I'm poppin' they bitches, they bubble / They been on rocks, on gravel / I'm on a whole 'nother level" implies that the rapper is on a higher level of success, and those who betrayed him are beneath him.
Furthermore, the lines "And if I give that lil' pussy a chance / I don't know what they sayin' behind my back" suggest the rapper's relationship with women is potentially detrimental to his reputation, but he is willing to take that risk. The excess consumption of Percs is mentioned throughout the song, which could be perceived as a coping mechanism for the rapper's paranoia and stress.
Overall, Yeat's song "Rackz" appears to be a reflection of the rapper's success, wealth, and mistrust of others.
