In 2010 he played his first national headline tour, joined 360 and Skryptcha on "The Three Up Tour," featured on M-Phazes' "Take It from Me," and released his second album, The Chase, which earned an ARIA nomination for Best Urban Album; its single "It Can Wait" became his first entry on the Australian singles chart. He followed with Bring It Back in 2012, Cinematic in 2013 and Two Degrees in 2016, and later The Space Between, The Level Up and Good Life in 2024, and he signed with Warner Music in 2022.
