cheif keefHate him or love him, Chief Keef is currently one of the most popping artists in the rap game, having developed an extensive, cult-like following amongst the younger generation. Throughout his brief three-year career, the Chiraq native has already collaborated with Waka Flocka Flame, Gucci Mane, OJ Da Juiceman, Young Dro, B.o.B., Wale, 50 Cent, Wiz Khalifa, Kanye West, Justin Vernon, Young Dolph, Future, Mike Will Made It, Young Scooter, Red Café, The Game, French Montana, Fabolous, Uncle Murda, Soulja Boy, Rocko and more. Most recently, he retired the title of his Glory Boyz Entertainment imprint in favor of simply "Glo Gang" (also calling for new artists) and announced the release date for his Bang 3 mixtape, as well as engaging in a bit of mild beef with Atlanta's Migos. Stay tuned – there’s never a dull moment when it comes to Keef. | lil durk Lil Durk has always been one of the most consistent members of the Chicago drill scene, but was overshadowed by Chief Keef's monstrous hype. With Keef now operating in weirder and more low-key territory, Durk has risen as the city's current flagbearer of street rap. His single "Dis Ain't What You Want," which arrived as a stronger and more paranoid update of his already terrific "L's Anthem," captured a lot of attention, and his full length, Signed To The Streets delivered on the promise of the track. Durk proved he could handle an entire project solo, and refined his triumphant yet world-weary croon. On top of his deal with Def Jam, Durk crewed up with French Montana's Coke Boys. He even tried to release a new mixtape in the first week of the new year, but was stopped by his label - which means his debut album can't be too far away. | jay z Jay Z needs no introduction. Not only is he one of the most respected rappers in the game, he’s also among the most successful, worth approximately $500 million - and he did it all without ever putting his lyrics to paper (some of which have prompted a response from the White House.) Not only that, he’s married and has a child with Beyonce, one of the most respected and successful R&B artists in history. Throughout his prolific 25-year career, the 17-time GRAMMY-award-winning Brooklyn native has collaborated with the likes of Coldplay, Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, Fabolous, UGK, Lenny Kravitz, Pharrell, R. Kelly, Mariah Carey, Timbaland, Jermaine Dupri, Rakim, Santigold, Robin Thicke, Amy Winehouse, Andre 3000, Usher, M.I.A., Lil Wayne, Nas, The Notorious B.I.G., Big Daddy Kane, Frank Ocean, Rihanna, Alicia Keys, Linkin Park, DMX, Ja Rule, Mary J. Blige, Foxy Brown, Rick Ross, J. Cole, Chrisette Michelle, Dr. Dre, U2, Drake, Marina Abramovic and many more. His recent accomplishments include a successful holiday collection with Barneys and his own cigar line and cologne, as well as his new, platinum-selling album Magna Carta Holy Grail. Oh yeah, there’s also the fact that President Barack Obama "owes him a couple". |
