Keep It 100 – The Meaning Behind the Music
When I sat down to write Keep It 100, I wasn’t thinking about making a catchy hook or chasing trends. I was thinking about how rare realness has become in a world full of masks, empty promises, and words that mean nothing without the actions to match.
This song was born from experience—from moments when people said one thing but did another, when loyalty was just a word people liked to say but rarely lived by. We’ve all had those moments—when someone swore they had your back, only to vanish when things got real. When someone spoke about love, loyalty, or truth, but their actions betrayed every word.
Keep It 100 is a reminder that it’s not about what you say—it’s about what you do. Real ones move with consistency. They don’t just talk the talk—they live it, stand on it, and back it up when it matters most.
In today’s world, talk is cheap. Social media lets people create whole personas that don’t exist in real life. Everyone’s posting about loyalty, grinding, staying solid—but behind the screen, too many are switching up, backstabbing, lying, or just pretending.
This track is my way of saying: I see through it. And I choose not to move like that.
I’ve learned that keeping it 100 isn’t always easy. Sometimes it means walking alone. Sometimes it means being the only one holding it down when everyone else folds. But I’d rather be real and alone than fake and surrounded.
Keep It 100 Is a Code
This song isn’t just music—it’s a code. A way of life. A mindset. It’s about staying true even when it’s uncomfortable. Being honest when lying might be easier. And being solid even when you get no credit for it.
We live in a time when image gets more attention than character. But the truth always reveals itself. People remember how you made them feel. They remember if your actions matched your words. And they respect those who keep it 100 through every season.
