Keak Da Sneak

Keak Da Sneak, born Charles Kente Williams on October 21, 1977, in Oakland, California, is a distinctive voice in the West Coast hip hop scene, best known for his raspy vocal delivery and pioneering contributions to the hyphy movement. His musical career took off in the late 1990s as a member of the group 3X Krazy, with their debut album "Stackin Chips" being released in 1997. Keak's gritty lyrics and energetic flow catapulted him into a successful solo career, solidifying his status within the Northern California rap pantheon.

Beyond the group success, Keak Da Sneak has become synonymous with the hyphy culture, which is celebrated for its energetic and exuberant approach to music and dance.
