Richman began releasing music on SoundCloud and Spotify in 2016, where he released his debut song \"Ballin' Stalin\". He continued to release singles and EPs, with genres including R&B and punk rock.

In 2022, he released Paycheck, his first EP.\n

In 2023, Richman was signed to Brent Faiyaz's independent record label ISO Supremacy, with a partnered signing with Pulse Records.
