He began his career in 2009, promoting alongside Zico in underground clubs (under the stage name Holke). They released the digital single "The Letter".
As part of BLOCK B, he made his debut in April 2011 as the group's lead rapper and vocalist with the digital single "Do U Wanna B?". The group was created by Cho PD and Stardom Entertainment (스타덤 엔터테인먼트) and enjoyed some success in their early years. He also continued to release singles as a soloist and produced (alongside Zico) most of BLOCK B's albums.
In January 2013, all members filed a lawsuit against the agency for allegedly withholding their payments and not providing opportunities to promote and train. In June of that year, the court ruled in favor of Stardom, and the case was dismissed.
In August 2013, the group transferred to KQ Entertainment (KQ 엔터테인먼트) and obtained bigger commercial success with the following 3 single albums, debuted in Japan and held concerts in Europe and the U.S.
In January 2018, the group released a repackage of their previous album titled "Re: Montage" before taking an indefinite hiatus to fulfill military enlistments and focus on other activities.
In 2019, he was involved in two controversies after accusing 6 different artists of chart manipulation. He was sued for defamation and later fined $4,000 USD. In September 2020, he was accused by an anonymous source of bullying special needs students back in middle school. Although he apologized, it was discovered later that an executive from the agency of one of the artists he accused of chart manipulation was the one who made it public.
He enlisted for his mandatory military service on October 19, 2020, and was discharged on September 21, 2022.
He briefly reunited with his group mates during an episode of "The Seasons Season 5" (with Zico as the show's host), and talks of a possible comeback have been held, but nothing official has been determined. BLOCK B has never officially disbanded, and despite not having released any new material for almost a decade, the group retains a strong domestic fanbase.
