He became more widely known with the release of the single "Tsigalko", one of Dof Twogee's rap "sessions" in 2021, produced and directed by Beats Pliz.[3][4][5] Later that year, he released the single "Atlanta", the first single of the project "Raps on the Run", created by Greek YouTuber Nikos on the Run.[6] He went on to release multiple singles, including "Low Profile" with Electabaz, "Goal" with Mr. Emor and 6aria, "1000 Kosmoi" with Dani Gambino, with whom he later became a frequent collaborator, "Mordor", "Real Connections Vol. 2" with Taff, "Ma" with Ethismos and "Magnum" with Spine.[7][8][9][10][11][12]
In 2022, he collabed with Trouf on "Daimones" and with Taff on "Entaksei", before releasing his first studio album, Interrail, consisting of 8 tracks.[13][14] The album features another collaboration with Dani Gambino after "1000 Kosmoi".[15][16] The album is about Wang's life before he became a rapper.[16] Interrail's success turned Wang into a mainstream rapper in Greece and it was certified gold.[4] It peaked at the 3rd place on the Apple Music charts and at the 13th on the iTunes.[17] On Album of the Year, the album has a weighted average score of 77 out of 100, based on 4 reviews.[18] Later that year, he released the singles "Run the City" and "T-MAX" (feat. Olpa).[19][20] In 2023, Wang released various singles, including "Woah", "Gia Panta", "Idrogeios", "High Class", and "De Me Ksereis Kala".[21][22][23][24][25] He was featured in multiple albums, such as Dani Gambino's Epikindinoi Polites on "Neoi Sto Nosokomeio", Beats Pliz's Arte Povera on "Memento Vivere In F Minor", Bloody Hawk's Fthina Tricks on "KVL" and Long3's and Trouf's North Fiesta on "Gps".[26][27][28][29]
In 2024, Wang released a 5-track group EP titled The Deal with Dani Gambino and Bloody Hawk. The EP was also very successful both critically and commercially and broke several records.[30][31][32][33] On Album of the Year, The Deal has a weighted average score of 73 out of 100, based on 16 reviews.[34] In 2024 he released his second studio album entitled Homesick, consisting of 9 tracks. Homesick features collaborations with Dani Gambino, Bloody Hawk and 12os Pithikos, while the album was produced by Mateos Nps.[35][36] The main themes of the album are nostalgia and the internal struggle for authenticity amid external pressures and expectations.[37] On Album of the Year, the album has a weighted average score of 76 out of 100, based on 5 reviews.[38] Wang was also featured in other albums, such as Trouf's Kinitra II on "Easy", Taff's Turbo on "Fast Moves" and Bloody Hawk's Fthina Tricks 2 on "KVL 2".[39][40][41] "Fuck Polizei" was Wang's only single released in 2024.[42]
