DJ Suede’s career progressed significantly in late 2016 and early 2017, marked by three charting songs on Billboard. His Thanksgiving-themed track “You Name It!”, sampling Pastor Shirley Caesar’s “Hold My Mule” sermon, became a widely recognized viral challenge (#UNameItChallenge) with promotion from artists like Chris Brown.
