In 2009, he began working for a Spanish record label called Caribe Music.

Then in 2016, he became part of a Cuban band called LKM, where he began collaborating with the toughest artists of the genre on the island, such as Chacal, Taiger, Charanga Habanera, among others, making himself known more in the island and some other places in the world.
