His career gained further momentum with the release of his third mixtape, “Beware the Book of Eli,” in May 2018, which peaked at number 50 on the Billboard 200. The same year, he was recognized as part of XXL’s “2018 Freshman Class.” His debut studio album, “Stokeley,” released in November 2018, marked a significant commercial achievement, reaching number 6 on the Billboard 200 and featuring Billboard Hot 100-charting songs such as “Faucet Failure” and “Nuketown” featuring Juice WRLD.
