Finally Rich
by Chief Keef
The 2465th greatest album of all time
Finally Rich, Chief Keef's 2012 major-label debut, showcases the raw, hard-edged sound of Chicago drill with sparse, bass-heavy production, staccato trap percussion, and jagged synth lines. Chief Keef's delivery is laconic and gritty, marked by slurred cadences and memorable ad-libs, while the lyrics emphasize street life and bravado. The album's minimalist beats and confrontational tone helped bring Chicago drill into a wider public conversation and influenced later artists working in drill and trap styles.
