Fans of the late rapper Lil Keed are buzzing after learning that the YSL rapper’s mother is working on a new single and posthumous project.
On Monday (January 30), Keed’s mother, Tonnie Woods-Reed, posted a message on her son’s Instagram page describing intentions to distribute Keed’s unheard songs to the public, beginning with a new track titled “Long Way to Go,” which will be published this Friday (February 3).
The song will be the first taste of Keed’s next album Keed Talk To ‘Em 2, which he was working on when he passed away in May.
“On May 13, 2022 I lost my son Raqhid Render – who many of you knew as the artist Lil Keed. While this journey through the different phases of grief has been indescribably hard, a way that I have found to cope is through his music,” she began.
“Right before his passing, Keed was hard at work at what would’ve been his highly anticipated next album Keed Talk To ‘Em 2,” she continued. “As much as he was a great father, son, and friend – he was also an artist who (thanks to many of you) lived and continues to live through his music.
