Career
In 2016, Keith was nominated for a Grammy Award for his writing & production work on the Charlie Wilson album Forever Charlie,[1] which included the songs "Unforgettable" (featuring Shaggy), "Infectious" (featuring Snoop Dogg), and the opening track "Somebody Loves You." Forever Charlie also gartered a NAACP nomination for “Outstanding Album."
In August 2016, ISINA artist New District released the single "Ain't Got Money," which Keith wrote and co-produced alongside industry heavyweight Randy Jackson. In December of that same year, Keith wrote & produced 3 songs on the NAACP-nominated[2] Charlie Wilson album In It To Win It, including the lead single "I'm Blessed" (featuring T.I.),[3] which went to #1 on both the Billboard R&B charts[4] and Hot Gospel charts[5] in early 2017. “I’m Blessed” was nominated for an NAACP Award for “Best Duo or Group,"[6] as well winning as an ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Award [7] for most airplay on the R&B and Gospel charts.
Charlie Wilson follow-up single "Good Time" featured Pitbull, Teddy Riley & Ray Parker Jr., to which Keith is also responsible for.
Keith has also had a string of releases with Korean, Japanese & Chinese artists like Girl's Day, A.O.A., SEEART, the full Season 2 cast of the hit Korean-based talent show Produce 101, and many more. Song releases include the singles "Whatta Man (Good Man)" by I.O.I, "Can't Stop Won't Stop Loving You" by Japanese artist Daichi Miura, the self-titled single "Playback"[8] by South-Korean group Playback, and "So Beautiful"[9] by South-Korean artist Jin Won. Particularly, "It's Me (Pick Me)," a 2017 single by K-pop group Wanna One, was described as "one of the most influential & memorable K-pop songs of 2017". It later went on to become a certified platinum single.
Rounding out his 2017, the Make-a-Wish Foundation used the Madison McWilliams song "Fighter"[10] (which Keith co-wrote & produced) for their campaign in the Texas & Southern US regions.
In September 2018, Keith partnered up with End Slavery[11] to perform at their annual Voices of Freedom[12] event, in hopes of raising awareness to Human Trafficking & Sex Slavery in the state of Tennessee.
Keith has had songs on ABC's The Today Show, Dancing With The Stars, NBC's Jimmy Kimmel Live!, CBS's The Talk, the Netflix series Unplanned America,[13] Lifetime's UnREAL[14], MTV's Finding Carter,[15] VH1 & BET's Hit The Floor, as well commercials, local TV shows, & airliners all around the world.
