Chief Keef: "1,2,3", New Album Almighty So 2 & Hidden Talents | Apple Music

good to see you man you too you you too how's life bro in fact I already know cuz you told me I'm drifting away man how's life been it's been beautiful yeah I'm chilling man I'm big chilling I'm better than ever bro yeah I love to see it I love to hear it you've given us so much in the music and the art over the years but it doesn't mean anything unless you're in a great head space and you're able to enjoy life bro I'm so happy to hear that appreciate that man thank you you produced this one boy did you this is so this is an Anthem man and I wonder like being producer and being artist on this which is very much who you are these days you're very much in aour you're in control of your own destiny you love to create art of all different kinds I wonder what it's like you know when you finish a beat how how you get yourself into a place where you can also be a performer on that beat do you know what I mean I you know when you make the Melodies and you make this when you just like putting it together you know I'm saying and you got creativity it just flow it just come out you know especially if it's a dope Beed or a dope something dope you just want to get it get it all out you know what I'm saying I want to be super nerdy and ask you how long it took for the song to come together because can I say something I hope you taking the spirit that it's intended it felt like it fell out of you the song it felt like it fell out of you it actually uh let's see how long did it take I probably actually my little cousin was sleeping he was in the front I made it probably like an hour hour and a half yeah yeah man it's so instant about an hour and a half it's so instant man um why did you decide to to to let us hear this one in advance of Almighty so to because we all can't wait to hear this record and so this is only going to make us more excited how do you know this one's one you wanted to represent the album as a whole I just the vibe of it is different from what I usually always what you always say from Chief ke yeah yeah yeah yeah is different than what you usually what you expect it a it ain't what you expected from me type thing you know it's different it's kind of different flow different vibe the way that I'm flowing is is I'm usually doing like turned up stuff or I might be singing some autoone you know what I'm saying yeah yeah and also you know you I I love how you give the the music and the arrangement room to breathe so it means when you come back in it's like oh I'm ready to come back in because I'm inspired to be on on my own beat you know what I mean yeah yeah you understand you know what's going on I know what's going on bro yes you do being a fan from day one love to see it love to hear it appreciate I I'm a fan of you too man thank you bro at first I was like who that is but now okay I see exactly I know I know I was I was lost at first I didn't understand okay I see well no I'll be seeing you I'll be seeing you though thank you bro I'm man sometimes I don't know where I am either or who I am or I'm lost on myself sometimes I get sometimes I do that so we all we all do that man I'm so excited that you're around making music and that we have this album everyone gets so preoccupied with how long things take but they I always feel they're ready when they're ready and they speak to they tell you when they're done so my question Chief Keith on this particular Project Read to come out this week is how important was it that it took the time it took what did you learn in the time it took to make it better rather than getting it out when maybe you thought it was ready I mean I just wanted to um expand and you know instead of like the regular and then a lot of stuff leaked you know a lot of my stuff getting leaked with hackers and I don't know how they be getting this music what they be doing how the hell is that even happening in 2024 you don't understand man you know what it is you really got to stop sending songs out yeah stop stop sending song with people but I used to think like leaks made sort of sense from a piracy point of view in terms of The Hunger for music back when no one had access to it but when you're ready to give it to us you give it to us it's not like you're keeping it from us what is the point in beating you to the punch I don't get it some people just be like I don't know what you right though I think of that too man cuz my eyecloud just got hacked not too long ago I'm crazy and uh they was getting music and I don't know what they doing with it yeah it's crazy it's crazy to get a job or something I don't know what's going on and like it just feels to me like until I see the artwork which is beautiful in this as well until I see a complete picture a 360° environment that you've created dat that you're happy with I'm not sure if I really want it I want to talk a little bit about Legacy for you because you know you're still such a young man you're still you know you've still got so much life to 29 be 29 and always it's crazy to think what you've achieved at this point in your life yeah I'm about to be 29 years old man I came in 16 years though it's so crazy do you think looking back on it now with the benefit of hindsight through all of the challenges and the triumphs that you've been through that you would that you would recommend um trying to find your way as an artist finding your voice at that age that you you really understand yourself as 16 enough no I was just young and young yeah yeah yeah I mean I didn't I was just just going like doing stuff and just I was just actually just the street life had me you know what I'm saying like the streets and everything that came with that it had me in like a like a hole especially in Chicago so when I move to LA I kind of like started getting better as a person type yeah yeah yeah so it took for me to go to LA to actually grow out of what I was and who I was and how I was you know now I'm even talking like you couldn't give me the talk in an interview I'll tell you what how are you 300 uh yeah no yeah no I ain't really speaking I'm not being focal yeah like that but nowadays I mean I got something to say really really yeah I love that I love that and also you know I think it comes from a certain sense of self-awareness and realizing who your where your true Spirit lies I think it's the Arts really helps you do that as well and you stay true to the music it's like you could have gone on as you were discovering other parts of yourself and thought the music game is too traumatic for me it's too aligned to too many crazy things but you stay true to the Arts what is it about the music that you know is the best way for you for you to express yourself uh I mean with me and ain't just music it's music and like designing I like to do clothing I like you know what I'm saying I do a lot of lot lot lot a lot of stuff but uh I mean I just like to create man I like to you see like if you check my room I just look at screens and computers my whole house is just full of I already know bro I actually see see you as a designer more than even just an a musician in in a way yeah yeah yeah yeah cuz I mean if you if you to ever come over my house and I just showed you the thing that I can do I think you would be like you would never like it's nothing that you expect like you just like what the you like you got these hidden tanel bro well why you hiding them from us man because I know you've got this other exess expressive sides to you yeah I don't know what it is or why I don't really like showing all the you know all my stuff all the things I do with do CU people just think a onesided thing about a person you know I'm saying they only think oh maybe he he's just you know like but don't know that you can do I could do cold and like I can do so much man but there's there's so much wrapped up in that Chief Keef that I think aligns to this idea of what you represent and mean to to the Arts and to artists so let's just let me untangle this for a second right your impact and your influence throughout music is so enormous that in many respects it's like maybe everyone just kind of feels that that's where we we all want you is to continue to influence and spite go yeah that's how it go but there so much else in your life that you still yet to do but nobody understand that but the person that's the life that that's living the life that other that they looking at you know what I'm saying they they looking from the outside you know at your life you know they on the outside looking in at show life and they just expect this and this and this and they expect you to do this but if they was in your shoes it' be the same you know what I'm saying you know yeah I do so I do and I think in in a lot in a lot of ways it sounds like you're not looking outside at other people people's lives that the fact you're able to create and be curious means you built a world for yourself now yeah yeah no I don't really too much look at like too much at nobody at all really really I don't know why I'm like that man I think I got that from L way man real for real I heard him say something like that like you be listening to people I just really just do my own thing man it's so I can't say I don't listen to nobody it's some people I can count on probably like one hand you know what I'm saying a couple of people that all like get their album if they dropped it take a listen you know what saying see what they talking about see how they FL just about them like that but there's a couple of people it's a couple of people but no I don't really check for people like that man well because it's so crazy to think that people throw the word icon around at 20 nearly 29 years old and I think that's a beautiful thing to be but at the same time you don't want to reach that status and be of that status when there's like you're not even anywhere near halfway through your life yeah I got more I got hell of more life left man yeah H more life so yeah I mean that's just what they going to do though man you know what I'm saying we got to expect that cuz that's what the people that's what people go do period man and I don't think that'll ever ever stop for nobody me even a person even the future even the future it's not stop it's it'll never stop so and we just got to expect them to do that man and one day one day they got to understand one day hopefully but I don't think that can happen there too many people in this world too many too many people to get everybody on one quarter to understand everybody can't understand everybody not going to understand but it's all good man I'm not tripping I'm going live my life you live your life you know what I'm saying beautiful at the end of the day I got to wake up in my skin in my bed and in my house I got to brush my teeth wash my butt you know what I'm saying you gotta do the same for yourself so hey we gonna leave we G leave it like that you can think what you want to think and say what you want to say hey Almighty so too this album Almighty so too how you gonna celebrate I think I I think I got a party tomorrow or that sounds like a half surprise potty I think I'm got a party tomorrow it's really it's really a surprise I don't think pay I don't know cuz nobody really told me but like two people told me about it oh they're the worst party attendees of all time they just sport the whole surprise those are the people who can't keep a secret I don't know if they was trying to add like yeah I don't know how they trying to do but somebody did to I can't wait to see you back on stage man I'm going to come to Chicago of course an important show for you of course well first of all of course man because a Cole is
