Other rappers, such as Rhymefest and Lupe Fiasco, however, have been critical of Chief Keef. In June 2012, Rhymefest authored a blog post critical of his image and message, describing him as a “bomb” and a “spokesman for the Prison Industrial Complex”. The post was also critical of rappers Waka Flocka Flame and Rick Ross, citing similar issues. Rhymefest reiterated these views in a subsequent interview with Salon. Lupe Fiasco’s criticisms of Keef touched off a feud between the two.
Chief Keef is often seen as a representation of the “Chiraq” gangsta rap culture that is present in Chicago. He often refers to himself as “Sosa” as do his peers and the media. The nickname “Sosa” is a reference to Sosa, the drug dealer in the movie Scarface. LA Weekly reported that Chief Keef’s Glo Gang entourage respects the rapper. One member of the Glo Gang, Ballout, stated, “We learned all that from Sosa, we be in the studio with him so much,” calling him, “a rhyming machine. A music genius. Black Justin Bieber, if you ask me.” The New York Times stated that Chief Keef “symbolizes” Chicago’s drill music scene and is the “best known of the young generation of Chicago rappers.” In November 2012, Lucy Stehlik of The Guardian described Chief Keef as drill’s “alpha male”. David Drake of Pitchfork Media wrote, “Chief Keef is in rarefied air for street rap—a creative voice with an original, cohesive aesthetic,” adding, “to the grassroots, among a new generation of stars, he sits at street rap’s aesthetic center, not its margins.”
