Shortly after the tape's release, he signed a major-label deal with Atlantic, where he has unexpectedly thrived: his last three albums, despite also being available for free download, have sold well enough to reach the top 40 of Billboard's Top 200. With 2013's The Luca Brasi Story-22 gut-wrenching tracks of brutal self-analysis, tragic romance, and hyperreal tales of narcotics trafficking and IHOP homicides-Gates built a cult following, setting a dexterous lyrical standard for melodically gifted, sensitive thugs. He took a detour to prison on drug charges, but since his release in 2011, his raps have only gotten better. Now 27, Gates first garnered buzz in the mid-2000s Louisiana scene for his collaborations with Lil Boosie and Webbie. He's been a hopeless romantic ( I'd go to war with God for you, baby, he professes on 2013's "Twilight"), a freaky lothario (he's made internet headlines by advocating ass-eating and claiming to have had sex with his distant cousin), and, all the while, a devoted dad (his 2-year-old daughter and 7-month-old son are fixtures on his Instagram). Multifaceted to the core, Gates spends a lot of time in the depths of his own psyche, plumbing his mind to discover new sides of himself. Over the phone, he sounds a bit exhausted, in contrast with his recent Instagram mantra and single, "I Don't Get Tired (#IDGT)." But he's got a lot going on, both in his career and in his own head. Kevin Gates speaks in a low, scraping croak.
