Soon enough, he established himself as one of the leading voices in the genre, collaborating with artists like J Balvin, Dani Flow, Bellakath, and Ms Nina. Ñerostars, his debut album, was released in 2024 and featured contributions from Yng Lvcas, Eme MalaFe, Tensec, Dj Rockwel Mx, Julianno Sosa, and Jowell & Randy, among others. That year, he also released the single "Mami Tú" featuring Maury.
