Known for jazz-rap and lo-fi beats rooted in crate-digging and analog warmth, he is frequently linked to the Japanese jazz-hop lineage associated with Nujabes. His catalog spans albums and instrumentals with guests and collaborators including Del the Funky Homosapien, Royce Da 5'9", Shing02, Substantial, Cise Star, Blu, Curren$y, Statik Selektah, and Emancipator. He is one half of the jazzhop duo Bop Alloy with Substantial and won Seattle’s Red Bull Big Tune beat battle in 2009.
