The release extends a stretch of albums produced in full by Zay over the last year, including Future’s much-hyped Beastmode 2 and more recently Usher’s forgettable full-length A. Keef, prolific as ever, released several mixtapes last year, most notably the long-teased Mansion Musick. “Mileage,” the Chicago rapper’s collaboration with Playboi Carti, was one of Spin’s 101 Best Songs of 2018.
GloToven features a guest appearance from Lil Pump, who tapped Keef for a feature on “Whitney” from his own self-titled studio debut in 2017. The release is notably credited to Keef’s own independent RBC imprint Glo Gang, rather than FilmOn, the label run by Greek billionaire Alki David, whose A&R skills have produced such oddities as The Cozart’s dance-rap abomination “Soldier.” In a press release, Zaytoven said collaborating with Keef stretched his limits. “It’s one of my favorite albums because it challenges me to produce with youthful, unorthodox creativity,” he said.
