Chief Keef has quickly made a name for himself with his breakout hit “I Don’t Like,” and his success is starting to reap benefits. During an interview with Global Grind, the Chicago, Illinois rapper said that he is currently in talks with three labels – Cash Money, CTE and Atlantic – and is deciding between which he will make his home.
“I talked with Birdman yesterday. [We talked about] me being CMB,” he said. “Three choices. CMB, CTE or Atlantic, I don’t know.”
Following the viral success of “I Don’t like,” Keef got a heavy co-sign from Kanye West, who remixed the song and added his G.O.O.D. Music brethren to the cut.

Best of luck to you my g,make the best move for your career now and the future.
*sigh* – shakes head. where’s the REAL music at?

Right Here Brother.
Bohemian Grove, Illuminate, Empathy…
The whole album is good.
I prefer pineal glands or the black bastard remix. Overall, this album is over hyped though. Not as good as some are claiming
fuck ym and cte go to atlantic still have your gbe set like how wiz still got talyor man they take you from mixtapes and get you some album money on the side
this guy sucks ass but i guess hes like 16 and hes already better than soulja boy but he should cut it out with the wack adlibs, nigga just keeps saying bang bang on all his songs i heard
Same thing Jeezy does with his adlibs. It’s his trademark. The kid ain’t no super lupe lyricist but he makes some bangers.
back in the day bangers actually had lyrics as well. just cause the beats hard dont mean shit.
no…he doesn’t make any fucking bangers. Shit is straight garbage. These labels are buying hype without skills.
its not the same as jeezy, jeezys adlibs add something to the song but this kid just keeps saying bang bang and he sounds retarded
We got Emcees starving for help and this mother fucking kid gets a record deal? Smmfhx100
please go to Atlantic so they can bury you
Your pockets will never hurt over at YMCMB.
plus the tour game is crazy.
but u gotta kiss birdman and wayne on da lips
But He Won’t Be A Priority Over There Too Many Heads and No Breathin’ Space. There Artists There That Won’t Release A Albums IE Gudda, Jae Millz, and They Dropped The Ball Big Time On Cory Gunz
Get that money and take care of yourself and your people.
Fuck that. This is music. People need to stop caring about the ca$h and start giving a shit about what they’re actually saying in Hip Hop. Stop being so god damn lazy and get a job, don’t exploit an artform that you don’t give 2 shits about.
/rage
@Jim – I agree with everything you said!! It’s a shame that people these days choose their favorite rappers because of money/fame/swag instead of the music. If you wanna make money go get a 9-5 and stop fucking up the art. These wack rappers got people laughing at hip-hop and disrespecting it because they think it all sounds like what’s played on the radio.
I agree with Jim, if people wanna take care of their fam…go get a 9-5, save money go to college, be a lawyer, doctor whatever as u don’t need millions, chains, lambos to take care of your fam…niggaz is fucking up this art then give stupid reasons like am just trying to feed my fam…all you need is food to survive not millions
Is this guy slow? Or mental? or just an idiot? Doesnt suprise me that Birdman of all people thinks hes good, so many amazing artists out there and you pick a kid who probably doesnt even know where he is at…
I swear someone posted a picture of him wearing a Brick Squad chain on the boards at allhiphop? WTF
To all rappers shut up with ya shutting up
And keep your shirt on, at least a button up
Yuck, is they rhymers or strippin’ males?
Outta work jerks since they shut down Chippendales…
LOL He’s not gonna make it!
He looks like he is posing for a Calvin Klien underwear ad.
“Three choices. CMB, CTE or Atlantic”
Try Koch
He’s like Chi-town’s Lil B.
This dude is one of the worst people I have heard in a minute. He is so bad I can’t even knock him for it because I think he is so hyped up by his boys that he actually thinks he is good. This dude is just plain garbage put him out on the street & let the sanitation engineers deal with him. Now he’ll become some popular Kids Bop artist that all these dummies will support because they are too ignorant to realize what this man speaks about is nothing & isn’t Hip Hop, don’t support him, it’s a waist of a good dollar bill. Support C.O.B., Horse Shoe G.A.N.G., One-2, JeanYus, Tragedy Tha Beast, Sene, Blu, David Banner, Crooked I, Slaughterhouse, Eminem, Papoose, 2pac, Biggie, DMX, etc these are MC not gimmicks.
man it’s crazy cuz Im from da chi & got nothin but luv for our artists. But from a hip-hop stand point, dis nigga is wack. I don’t like was break his through to fame and i give him props for dat catchy hook but dats about it…Im almost willing to be he didnt even graduate high-school jus by the way he cudn’t articulate answers to this basic interview. Hopefully, he’ll help draw attention to other good chicago artists dat can actually spit tho
whoever signs him will be making the dumbest mistake ever
You’re probably right. He’s riding on a huge wave of hype with not much to back it up.
Let him sign to Atlantic where he can do songs with Bruno Mars and the airplanes bitch and Bieber, cause all they care about is the radio hits. That’s why Lasers was so bad and Rolling Papers had a bunch of pop hooks, cause Wiz and Lupe are both on Atlantic and they only care about the money. So Keef will die off fast if he signs there.
Bieber = Island/Def Jam
NO HATE
BUT THOSE ARE THE 3?
MIGHT WANNA RECONNECT WITH THAT CHI-TOWN GUY
This guy is a HORRIBLE artist. How do people like this get major label interest? Oh yeah, because most people are idiots.
He needs to sign with Atlantic and just do a solo album with his crew.
This kid got 360 written all over him, not 2 shit on a man trying to eat, but this is what we hold as a standard in hip hop now?
waka aint even been around that long and they done made a mini version of him already damn!
HEEELL Y EEEZZZ MY NIKKKAS
Finally It Happened…..I got rid of all my ISHHH from my cre dit report y’all – I was in a deep Gutta for 5 years. Coudn’t buy sheeet. Just approved for that 25k loan to buy a new CAMA ARO!!!
IF YOU GOT PROBLEMS WITH THAT CRE DIT REPORT ISHH, GET IT CLEAN y’all. YOu can get yours too, call these people at EIGHTEIGHT8-927 -335SIX – they did an amazing job for me and fo a price that can’t be beat nowhere, cheap as fuck. Got Rid of all my Shyyt.
My homeboy was in terrible shape too, and he clean! Gettin a condo.
Hit em up – they will help!!!!!
It s clear tha Atlantic Records is more interested in poisoning black and urban youth. It s the only reason they could have any interest in this dude. As far as the other 2 labels. Well? Look who it is.
Blogs are the new A&R. The funny thing is, clearly these labels see the plays, but they dont read the comments. LOL. DUde is garbage and most people think so.
The fact that this guy is aobut to get a major deal is one of the reasons I don’t listen to hip hop anymore bunch of whack ass no talent havin bitches
I’m 7-4 til the world blow and I like seeing young cats comin up,but this nigga is WACK, straight GARBAGE. Only good thing about this nigga’s songs is the beats, but other than that my ears bleed listenin to this nigga. I pray CTE doesn’t sign this nigga,it would take them 10 steps back after signing their BEST artist, Freddie Gibbs
Fuck you he the best
I don’t know one white person that likes Keef. He makes hood nigga shit, a lot people aint gonna fuck with it…his shit is smooth and catchy…its not much to it, but it works.
this nigga has no skill his lyrics dont mean shit how the hell are people interested in signing him
garbage is what this is, 16 years old and rappin about smokin dope, lame.
He need 2 go 2 G.O.O.D musik
If You Feel Like You Can Do Better , THEN TALK SHIT CALL EM WACK AND HATE , If Not , Shut The Fuck Up , He 16 And Gettin His Shit , Dont Hate Man
Not another Souljah Boy *smh*
This kid sucks balls, str8 garbage…trash…worse than ‘starship’ track
Gotta blame these labels for fucking up the art, and all these blogs for promoting such garbage
am not surprise Birdman is interested in dude. What can you expect from a man with graffiti on hi head?
u raw
