Keith has been termed the “Korean OG Maco” and noted for an exciting concert performance at 2015’s South by Southwest rap showcase, among other performances which included Young Thug, Desiigner, Waka Flocka Flame, XXXTentacion, and more. His concert at SOB’s in 2015 was listed as one of The New York Times top 40 picks, “unrestrained mayhem”, and “a clear inheritor of Southern rap rowdiness”.
On February 4, 2015, American rapper OG Maco accused Keith of cultural appropriation. OG Maco purported Keith and his pals had mocked him by using black stereotypes to sell music in their video of “It G Ma”. He also claimed that they had copied the basis for their track from his track “U Guessed It”. As of August 13, 2015, OG Maco collects royalties from “It G Ma”.
