Police performing a welfare check found the prolific hitmaker, whose real name is Brytavious Chambers, unresponsive in his Martin Street apartment in Nashville on Thursday afternoon, the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department said.

No foul play is suspected, police said. He was 29.

The cause of Keith’s death is pending autopsy results.

Keith hailed from Tennessee and worked with music’s biggest stars, including Beyoncé and Drake.

He was nominated for a Grammy in 2019 for “Sicko Mode,” which he helped produce while he was a student at Middle Tennessee State University, and again in 2024 for “Rich Flex” by Drake and 21 Savage.

He also frequently collaborated with rapper Sexyy Red, including on “Get It Sexxy” and “Pound Town.”
