Kevin Gates transformed into one of the most impactful and inimitable rappers in the game by simply being Kevin Gates. Nearly 15 years into an unbelievable career, he doesné't chase trends. He doesné't censor himself. He doesné't hold back. Instead, he speaks his mind and fulfills every promise. Ité's why the Baton Rouge, LA native has racked up 6 billion streams, 6 billion views, and dozens of multiplatinum, platinum, and gold certifications. Ité's why heé's logged four Top 5 entries on the Billboard Top 200 in addition to seven Top 5 entries on both the Top Rap Albums Chart and the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Charts. Ité's why heé's sold out successive headline tours, delivered show-stopping sets at Rolling Loud and JMBLYA, and ignited arenas with Cardi B. Ité's why heé's received various high-profile award nominations. Ité's why heé's reached rarified air, emerging as second best-selling hip-hop artist of 2016 only behind Drake. Ité's why heé's also spawned countless think pieces. As always, he doesné't compromise on 2021é's Only The Generals Part II [Breadwinners Association/Atlantic Records] and more music on the horizon. Heé's only gotten better at being Kevin Gates.
