His musical journey took a significant turn with the release of his first song, "Hate On Me," on SoundCloud in January 2020. Since then, he has expanded his catalog with three albums available on all major platforms. Tracks like "Fatal Attraction," "Shadow Realm," and "Unique Ft. Wolfacejoeyy" have garnered attention for their raw emotion and introspective lyrics.
