In 2016, he premiered the music videos for 'Skinny Flakkkkkkk' and 'Tienes El Don' on YouTube, with which he managed to capture the attention of other exponents of the genre. His first album Boys Don't Cry was released in the same year, consisting of a total of 12 tracks, again produced by Itchy & Buco Sounds and mastered by Quiroga.[8]

In 2017 he returned with an audiovisual project consisting of various songs with Indigo Jams, such as 'Nueva generación', 'A solas', 'Lord Forgive Me' and 'I Know'.[9][10] Then he would launch the song 'Libres' and the music video of 'Rock & Roll', with which he had accumulated more than two million views in less than a month.[6]
