Early life

Bhangal began producing music at age 15.[1] After seeking advice from Nav regarding production equipment, he purchased a home studio setup using earnings from a day job.[1] He began his career by producing for various artists in the Toronto hip hop scene.[1]

Bhangal's early production work included tracks for Toronto-based artists such as Pressa, K. Money, WhyG, Casper TNG, and LB Spiffy.[1][3] In 2018, he collaborated with 88Glam on the track "I'm Fresh," featuring Nav, which helped establish his professional relationship with the XO collective.[1]

In 2019, Bhangal served as a primary producer on Nav's second studio album, Bad Habits, producing 14 of the album's tracks.[1] The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200.[2] He contributed further to Nav's 2020 follow-up, Good Intentions, which also reached the top of the Billboard charts.[3]

Production style
