’12 Worst Albums #1: Chief Keef Finally Rich

Chief Keef is a terrible rapper. After signing to Interscope in June, he released his debut Finally Rich six months later. Aside from Young Chop’s production (“Love Sosa”, “I Don’t Like” ) Finally Rich is sonically bankrupt. Throughout the project, Keef’s incoherent (“Kay Kay”, “Laughin To The Bank”) and incomprehensible (“No Tomorrow”, “Understand Me”, “Citgo”). When he’s not not rapping in fragments (“Hate Bein’ Sober”), the closest he comes to articulating a sentence is on the title track, “Finally Rich”. Money can’t buy happiness, but at least it’ll help pay for a ghostwriter.

  2. Lil Majer The Cartune says:

    Ehh… I agree but I think you could’ve dug a bigger hole into this than what you did, B. Dot…

  3. jadrianww says:

    Wow you guys are incredibly out of touch. It’s a fun album. Get over yourself b.dot u hip-hop nerd

  4. Ten Macaroni Necklaces says:

    Amen.

  5. Slice Bread says:

    BULLSHIT!! this was a decent album

  6. kylefall says:

    fail. “Understand Me” is a pretty good summation of B. Dot’s opinion on the album lol.

  7. Jonathan says:

    No disrespect to B. Dot because so far you had a great list of choices, but when you chose this as the worst album of 2012, did you really listen to the whole album, or did you only listen to 2 or 3 songs on this and said “Screw it, this sucks”?

    I’m just saying, it’s not the best album, but its not the worst.

  8. What?! YN ain’t collecting checks from Interscope anymore?!

  9. Based Van Exel! says:

    B.Dot

    Kreayshawn is better than Chief Keef? Keep it 100 my nigga

    Let’s be honest “Somethin about Kreay” is the worst album in the last five years.

  10. Jonathan says:

    Oh and didn’t this album sell around 50,000 copies the first week? I mean not that sales mean anything in this case, but you could at least give the kid a break. He’s still developing as an artist.

  11. CaliSteppin says:

    Agree this shit is terrible I actually tried to listen to the album but lord have mercy hes god awful

  12. B.Dot says:

    @Johnathan
    ^
    What, you think i’m just going to judge music w/o listening? Only people on the internet do that, oh wait…

  13. Realshyt says:

    This cd serves a certain purpose for a certain audience soo idk what to say about this album..it does BUMB!

  14. Polka says:

    Agreeing with B.Dot for once you fuck boys.

  15. trilldon says:

    Chief keef can’t spit for shit but you clearly don’t know what your talking about if you say this is the worst album of 2012. Have you listened to all the albums of 2012? I don’t like was so good that good music wanted their own version, was good musics album shit aswell? The beats are hard as fuck, so he can’t spit, that’s not the only thing that makes a song. How much money did you make last year and how much did sosa make? Ye that’s what I thought.

  16. That Guy says:

    I approve of this message.

  17. Ten Macaroni Necklaces says:

    “Blah blah blah blah… Toaster
    Blah blah blah blah…. Soda
    Blah blah blah blah… Toyota corolla
    Blah blah blah blah… Oprah
    BANG BANG”
    - Chief Keef

  22. PaperTags says:

  23. GreenBeitz says:

    another entire hater brigade^^

  24. jobie says:

    I honestly don’t think he listened to it. Take this album for it is. It wasn’t over ambitious but honestly I never liked chief keef his style or what he stands for, but this album isn’t bad. has some bangers that get me hype for gym. its just fun. Don’t take music so seriously. Ive yet to hear a rap song that changed the world. or any song. its about entertainment

  25. MrSkeezyMak says:

    Someone listened to this album?

  26. Omar Hameen says:

    Cheif should be brought up on charges for this record

  27. Fuck a Fuck nigga says:

    Bdot is a fucking clown still wears.durags.lmaooooooo fucking Fuck nigga

  28. gbaby says:

    so diggy, kreayshawn and ja rule’s albums were better than this, gtfoh, yall obviously didnt listen to this record. fuck rap radar

  29. M.T says:

    i actually gave this album a chance and it was awful. Only fuck wit “Love Sosa”, “I Dont Like remix” and “Kobe”. The rest was unbearable. Chief Keef cant rap period.

  30. Ken P says:

    I agree with homie up top…Kreayshawn shit shoulda been #1 by far

  31. Jonathan says:

    B. Dot has an opinion, and I respect that.

    I sometimes think that all this hate towards Chief Keef, reminds me of the hate people on here gave to Waka Flocka Flame when he was getting noticed.

    Chief Keef’s “Finally Rich” is just like Waka Flocka’s “Flockaveli” to me. Only difference is the sound of the music.

  32. O-bla says:

    Damn ur hating on him for no reason. The beats on here were awesome

  33. BangBang says:

    All y’all saying fuck nigga are just groupies. That album was trash. One hit don’t make something hot. Chief Keef is wack.

  34. quantity powers says:

    You can’t honestly listen to Laugin To the Bank and tell me that shit is good. For Christs sake, stop letting the hood/radio brainwash you

  35. Judge Dredd says:

    Reading through these comments, I can’t help but laugh at the idiots defending this trash of an album..

    This kid cannot rap and fuck what he stands for or represent….. You have no taste….matter of fact fuck your tastes if you think this “goes hard, bumps” or whatever else you want to describe it with….

    Fucking imbeciles…..

  36. BangBang says:

    You niggas sound ignorant as fuck saying the lyrics suck but the beats are good. Go listen to an instrumental tape that would be way better than this garbage.

  37. phillywide says:

    straight basura!!!! u dudes talkin bout beats should find a barrel an use

  38. t money bagz says:

    this post is gonna make me never come back on your site. chief keef album was actually pretty good if you give it a good listen but he’s not paying Ross radar so its the worst album. give me a break it gotta be a whole bunch of fucking bums running this site to approve of this

  39. Skip Dillenger says:

    Sorry, B. Dot, but I fawx with this record. As ignorant and nihilistic as it may be, it still gets me turnt up in the gym. It’s the yin to “good kid, MAAD City’s” yang.

  40. Musikal says:

    Yeah shit was garbage.

  41. kbisburning says:

    LMAO @ “Chief Keef is a terrible rapper.”

    So true.

  42. BangBang says:

    New age muthafuckas always trying to go off topic to defend their corniness. What does Rick Ross have to do with Chief Keef being wack as fuck. Stop saying you ain’t gonna fuck with this site and just do it you homos.

  43. Q says:

    Yea he sux but lil b is fucking wack and u like him Bdot so??

  44. Yacht says:

    Stop it please! B.Dot don’t even respond too those who disagree. I’m all about debut albums, sometimes they’re unpolished. I appreciate the growth through out artist careers. They lost me with this one. Album is just silly…

  45. nucky thompson says:

    KREAYSHAWN SHOULD BEEN NUMBER 1…IM SORRY

  46. Jonathan says:

    @Yacht I heard 50 Cent was the one that helped him learn about the industry and what it does to you. Maybe it could help Keef on the next record, if he ever does one that is.

  47. Brick says:

    This album was the shit every nigga in my hood love this cd…the owner of this site is a fuckin nerd anyway so how could he relate to this album.

  48. t money bagz says:

    umm.. rick ross has alot to do with it like why is he the #1 mixtape when big sean detroit and wiz khalifa taylor allderdice was clearly 30x better than his mixtape which honestly had 4 good songs. chief’s voice may be a little unclear but nonetheless he def doesnt deserve worst album of the year. Get off ross dick, ur ruining hip hop with your decisions you make just because you’re on the payroll.

  49. rock25@yahoo.com says:

    The rap game full of lames now anyway…real niggas like chief keef,meek mill,gucci,rocko,fab,kiss don’t get the recognition…niggas rather listen to these suburban rappin niggas like tyler the creator,lil b,tyga and more foh b.dot
