Where the tag comes from
Tay Keith told Billboard the tag 'basically came from my boy Lil Juice': he tweeted that he needed a tag, Lil Juice sent him several options, and they settled on one. Before that, early beats such as BlocBoy JB's 'Goons Coming' (2014) carried a plainer 'Tay Keith produced this' tag. The tag blew up with BlocBoy JB and Drake's 'Look Alive' in 2018, and Rolling Stone called it 'the catchiest producer tag in hip-hop'.
