MacDonald started rapping at age 18, and first rose to fame after releasing the single "Dear Rappers" in February 2018. His song "Straight White Male", which was written about MacDonald's belief that straight white men are being demonized, was criticized on social media for its subject matter. In September 2019, MacDonald released the single "Cloned Rappers", on which he rapped about the conspiracy theory that the Illuminati are cloning rappers and disposing of the originals.
