Casanova came up in Brooklyn's hip-hop scene in the early 2010s, putting out mixtapes that caught local attention. He signed with Epic Records in 2016 and released his debut mixtape 'Don't Run' that year, which featured collaborations with Young M.A and Rowdy Rebel.
His 2019 single '2AM' with Tory Lanez and Davido became his breakout track, reaching the top of the charts and giving his sound an international dimension. The song's mix of vulnerability and swagger resonated widely.
In 2020, Casanova faced racketeering and conspiracy charges. He initially pleaded not guilty but later changed his plea to guilty and was sentenced to 13 years in prison.
