Charles Kente Williams (né Bowens; born October 21, 1977), better known by his stage name Keak da Sneak, is an American rapper from Oakland, California. He is known for his gravelly voice,[1][2] for coining the term hyphy in 1994,[3] and for his contributions to the hyphy movement.[4]
He has collaborated with E-40.
Keak Da Sneak has become, for many, the hip-hop voice of the Bay Area. It's a gravel-toned, jagged-edged, smoked-too-much-growing-up-in-Oaktown growl that cuts through a track like a diamond slicing glass.
Keak Da Sneak is renowned for his rubbery flow and raspy drawl.
