Early life

edit

Camara was born in Newark, New Jersey. Camara first began making beats using FL Studio where he would post his tracks onto SoundCloud.[citation needed]

Career

edit

Camara first posted beats to his SoundCloud along with his friend Babyboy SBB, where they would gain tens of thousands of plays. He later started posting them onto YouTube.[citation needed]

In March 2021, rapper Bandmanrill would release his breakout single "Heartbroken", which was produced by Camara. They would then work on various songs such as "I Am Newark", "Bullet", and "Bandthoven".[citation needed]

In November 2021, Camara produced the song "Shake" by YouTuber IShowSpeed, which became a viral hit. IShowSpeed would also name drop Camara on the song, as one of the songs' few intelligible lyrics.[1] This attracted the attention of Lil Uzi Vert, and Camara subsequently worked with the artist to produce their 2022 single, "Just Wanna Rock". The song peaked at number ten on the Billboard Hot 100, reaching Camara's furthest commercial success. Camara also debuted as a recording artist, producing his own material, beginning with his single "Dancing Ass Nigga" in March of that year. In July 2023, he released a follow-up single "Face Down" featuring ASAP Ferg and Sexyy Red.[2] Since then, he has worked on projects with artists such as Sugarhill Ddot, BBG Steppaa, and B-Lovee.[citation needed]
