Described by Rolling Stone as a 'Pioneer of Viral Hits' and named one of the 'Breakthrough Artists of 2020', bbno$ has become a master at creating catchy tracks. His first big TikTok hit, 'Lalala', created in collaboration with Y2K in 2019, achieved multi-platinum status worldwide. The year 2021 was a landmark year for bbno$ with the release of his fifth studio album 'eat ya veggies'. This outstanding 12-track disc brought the hit song 'edamame' created with Rich Brian of 88Rising, which went 6x platinum in Canada, Finland, Indonesia, Australia and gold in the US. With this success, bbno$ had the opportunity to perform at the JUNO ceremony, make a guest appearance during Rich Brian's performance at Coachella, perform at the Capital Jingle Bell Ball in the UK, on the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show and at the Streamer Awards, VALORANT World Championships and TwitchCon.

His remarkable achievements have been reflected in publications such as Billboard, Flaunt, tmrw, Rolling Stone, NME, Lady Gunn, SPIN, Euphoria, i-D, Ones to Watch and many others.
