24 Times Grammy Award Winner Kanye West Picks This NYC Rapper to Head Music for Yeezy LLC
There are a few people who stayed by Kanye West through his ups and downs. The rapper also did not forget to be thankful to them, giving back to those relationships. We have seen his stormy exit and his quiet return to the industry, ready to make music again. But it is not just his new wife Bianca Censori supporting him through it.
The rapper with 24 Grammy Awards also has the support of royal collaborators. From his journey as a producer to a singer, and a billionaire, one artist’s name was consistent. That talented artist is now leading Ye’s Yeezy LLC for a major department.

A good producer is the backbone of music and often gets to work with more variety than the singer. Perhaps that added to his bond, making rapper 88-Keys the new Head of Music at Yeezy LLC. The company is into making music, production, and distribution, allowing for a complete music building independently. With his experience in the industry, he will be in charge of producing future music for Ye and any collaboration that he does.
88-Keys, the name itself, signifies an 88 keys piano, a more expensive piano than its other models. As for the rapper, he grew up in New York City and has been active in the music industry since the late 90s. But it was Ye who first produced ‘The Death of Adam’ when 88-Keys decided to be a serious rapper in 2008. One of their first major work was ‘No Church in the Wild’, for which they choose a track together.
They share a long history of creating magic together. The tweet by the fan post gives a glimpse into their shared work.
