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.

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.

The lyrics of Yeat's song "Deserve It" talks about his attitude towards wealth and luxury. The chorus, "I deserve it," repeats throughout the song and seems to suggest that Yeat believes he deserves all the money and luxury he has acquired. He talks about buying a new turban and a perfect Italian gold chain after being told by one of his "bitches" that he deserves it. He also talks about spending ten thousand dollars on a bag and shoes and hanging out with his girl who satisfies him sexually.
Furthermore, Yeat also portrays himself as a self-made person in the song. He mentions his ability to ship drugs and money through mail and that he doesn't need anyone's help. He also says that he can count his money himself in the morning and doesn't know what to do next. The song also contains some vulgar language and expressions about women, which may not appeal to all listeners.
