He gained traction in 2015 with viral clips like “Allô Maître Simonard,” “Carjack Chiraq,” and “Freestyle PSG,” the latter of which reached over 100 million views by 2021.

His “Charo” dance, which mimics a vulture and was inspired by footballer Blaise Matuidi, became a cultural phenomenon.

That year, he featured on Maître Gims’ Sapés comme jamais, a top-three hit with over 430 million YouTube views.

His debut mixtape, Charo Life (2015), and first album, Zifukoro (2016), both reached number three on France’s SNEP chart.

Zifukoro, with collabs from Booba and Maître Gims, went platinum. In 2017, Commando topped the charts, earning diamond status with hits like “Réseaux,” which held the number one spot for 11 weeks. Mr Sal (2019) went triple platinum, and his 2021 mixtape Le monde est méchant featured Ninho and Maes.

In 2022, he judged Netflix’s Nouvelle École and released Le monde est méchant (V2). His 2024 album, GOAT, with Ninho, included the hit “911” featuring Koba LaD.
