Finally Rich benefits from some professional tweaks in the mix, but otherwise leaves Keef's sound untouched. Fellow Chicagoan Kanye West found that out the hard way when his Michigan Avenue makeover of "I Don't Like" was given a public dressing-down by Young Chop the day after it hit the web. There's nothing to add or subtract to this sound that could substantially improve it. Young Chop's crisp snares and hi-hats mimic Lex Luger's (minus the tricky syncopation) while Keef mutters through a thick wall of processing. If Waka Flocka Flame woke up tomorrow utterly drained of the will to live, he might sound like Chief Keef - all the unilateral forward motion and aggression, none of the audible joy. But he established a simple sound that proved powerfully effective and addictive, and he also showed that it was a sturdy enough blueprint to support multiple songs.
His youth, his rapid rise, and his association with Chicago's epidemic of gun violence made him 2012’s flashpoint for discussions about what was wrong with hip-hop. Chief Keef's music sparked a lot of arguments this year.
