Brathwaite attended Applewood Heights Secondary School before dropping out at 16 years old to move to Los Angeles to pursue his music career. Brathwaite began to post music under the alias Jahron B. to his Myspace account. At the time, all of his living costs were funded by his manager while he would receive $50 every two weeks from his mother to pay for groceries.

It entered on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums chart at number six with sales of 2,000 copies and peaked at number 34 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart for the week of July 20, 2013.

Brathwaite’s music often covers the topics of relationships and sex, usually consisting of "drug use, screwed-up vocals, [and] gloomy sax riffs". In his interview with The Fader, he revealed that at the time of his come-up, the music coming out of Toronto "were darker at the time", pushing him to flip the darkness, stating that he's "all about colours". He noted that he would "flip samples where one's a completely dark song and the next one is a complete sexual song".
