Cardona first rose to prominence in 2017 with the release of “Jennifer,” which led to a deal with labels including Island Records. In early 2021, Cardona's 2017 single "Dinero" resurfaced on TikTok, gaining massive popularity. The track quickly became the No. 1 song on TikTok’s viral chart, amassing over 65 million streams across platforms and landing on the Billboard Global 200 chart. This resurgence provided Cardona with a momentum to relaunch his career as he rejoined Island Records. He expressed a desire to release Latin fusion music, as an ode to his heritage. He was included on "Hayya Hayya (Better Together)", released in 2022 for the FIFA World Cup. He released the single "Hurt Me" in 2024.
