 3 Alter Egos, 1 Truth: Black Keef on Identity, Rock Therapy & Releasing the “Residue”On Episode 26 of Sculpt N Create, Trea Da Fit Artist sits down with Black Keef—artist, songwriter, and mental health advocate... for a real conversation about identity, release, and creative freedom.Keith breaks down why he created 3 musical identities to protect the vibe and the message:Keef Sweatshirt (rap/hip-hop)Keefiyo (R&B/pop “lover boy” energy)Black Keef (rock, where he can finally scream what he was taught to hold in)We talk about getting boxed in by genre, why ageism in hip-hop is backwards, and how music can be a journal you can replay, a form of therapy that documents your growth. Keith also shares how he’s building a bigger mission through Eclipse Music Technologies and Eclipse Distro, a Black-owned distribution platform created by artists, for artists.If you’ve ever felt like you had to shrink yourself to fit a lane… this one’s for you.🔑 Key Takeaways✔️You can’t heal what you never release, art can be the outlet.✔️Multiple identities can protect your creativity without confusing your audience.✔️Music is a journal you can replay, proof of where you were and how you grew.✔️Genre is a toolbox, not a prison. Rock/rap/R&B all have lanes inside them.✔️Age is not the limiter, authenticity is. Rap your truth, not your old persona.✔️Diversify your skills so you don’t get taxed (knowledge = leverage).✔️Structure supports mental health, even for creatives.🎤 Bars From the Episode🔥“Black Keith is the residue… the stuff that burned me.”🔥“Music is a journal you can replay.”🔥“When you hold it in, it snowballs… then it becomes an avalanche.”🔥“Don’t push the circle to a box, if you want to make something, make it.”🔥“If it’s not hurting nobody, enjoy your life.”🔥“It’s not what you know, it’s who you know… and what you’re willing to learn.”🕰️ Episode Chapters00:10 Episode intro + who Black Keef is01:25 Welcome + where to find Black Keef02:29 The 3 identities: Keith Sweatshirt / Keefiyo / Black Keith03:44 Why artists get boxed in (and how to protect your vibe)04:57 How long he’s been creating + why it became serious06:28 The XL Beats push + “proof in the pudding” mindset10:42 Entering rock + first single “The Abyss”12:24 Why rock is harder to engineer + vocal coaching15:28 Rock with rap elements + letting the beat “tell you”17:30 Starter playlist: I Don’t Care / Floating / The Abyss / Brain Freeze / Metagirl18:54 Why non-rock listeners still connect (relatability + hip-hop elements)23:18 Rock isn’t one thing (love songs, party songs, soft rock, metal, etc.)27:30 Building the rock album + cohesion + “The Residue” meaning34:31 Music as therapy + replayable journal you can learn from38:15 Boxing as release + why music hits different45:08 Life structure + managing 80+ employees + entrepreneurship46:23 Eclipse Distro + artists-first mission48:40 Ageism in hip-hop (and why it’s weird)58:47 Diversifying skills + network = leverage (don’t get taxed)1:05:04 Final message + biggest takeaway + Metagirl promo🔗 Connect w/ Black Keef 🌐 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/KeefSweatshirt📲 Social (all platforms): @keefsweatshirt🎧 Streaming name: Black Keef 🔗 Connect w/ Trea Da Fit Artist🚀 Ready to level up your fitness, creativity & performance?📄 Get Your Fit Masterpiece Score: https://rebrand.ly/fmpscore💪🏾 Coaching & Training: https://pocketsuite.io/book/nextworldfitness/item/masterpiece-sculpting-call🎨 Join the Fit Masterpiece Collabs Network (Get the 2 Week Experience): https://pocketsuite.io/book/nextworldfitness/item/fit-masterpiece-collabs--2week-network-experience🎧 More Episodes: https://gopod.io/p/ggpeaX🎤 Be a Guest on the Podcast 👉🏾 Apply here: https://pocketsuite.io/form/dxOo
