Artist Bio Keenon was raised in the congregations of East Atlanta churches performing old hymns and Sunday morning favorites all while learning the power and influence in creative communication. These experiences inspired him initially to pick up the pen and pad and tell stories of life as a youth in the subdivisions of Ellenwood, GA. Since then he has continuously honed in on his skill set in production, writing, and executive creation. His dream of releasing music on a global scale was influenced by such greats as Andre’ 3000, Kendrick Lamar, and 2 Chainz, and it has been said by many of his fans that he exhibits their influence in his music.

Keenon's music stands alone due to his ability to leverage cadence and wordplay. His records captivate audiences with anecdotes that people can relate too and characters that they want to root for. He attributes his understanding of this strategic combination of rhythm and rhetoric to countless hours listening to music and appreciating the beauty in its ambiguity. He’s currently preparing for the release of his new project 'Rich By December'

Lyrics

Long Live

Somebody told me all I ever had was time
I’m trying to get ahead of schedule
I’m trying to pay off my debts and continue to collect
I’m trying to invest in precious metals and minerals
Tell my mama to go cash out I’m talking racks

I heard they don’t fuck with free minded individuals
You probably fall in love with me and get too attached
If they laughed at me
If they lied it’s a wrap

We ain’t do it for internet
Never for the social
All my love real as shit
Never for the peons
Swear my love big as shit

And you look like old news
No we do not know you
Moving head of schedule
Just like we supposed to

Verse

Put some work in behind them statements and ignore the fake shit
Realize your full potential and enjoy your greatness
I took off
I think I am spaceship I came from slave ship
I come from a wavelength as old as age is

Putting work in with the cadence some niggas just say shit
Hypnotized by entertainment now your head contains it
I had to level up on niggas that took many stages
I just flip the page and continue painting

I swear this shit a game and I’m playing
Elevate the energy that brought me all this way in
That’s my testimony they don’t know how far I came in
I can remember em’ saying all I ever had was

Hook

I’m trying to get ahead of schedule
I’m trying to pay off my debts and continue to collect
I’m trying to invest in precious metals and minerals
Tell my mama to go cash out I’m talking racks

I heard they don’t fuck with free minded individuals
You probably fall in love with me and get too attached
If they laughed at me
If they lied it’s a wrap

We ain’t do it for internet
Never for the social
All my love real as shit
Never for the peons
Swear my love big as shit

And you look like old news
No we do not know you
Moving head of schedule
Just like we supposed to

Verse

Young black man intellectual so you know that I’m enraged
Young black man hypermasculine so I’m holding in the pain
Young black man ball on niggas but I got so much more to gain
Young black man don’t you move Ima shoot you put you in a cage

Young black man who you with what you do where you from what you claim
Young black man young black love black woman and make the world a better place
