Singing and dancing

After experimenting with rap, Ward turned to singing and dancing. At 18, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career as a dancer. Ward's precocious dancing abilities landed him gigs as a dancer for Justin Bieber, Becky G, Janet Jackson and Beyonce. For example, he appeared in Beyonce's Homecoming documentary, which featured her Coachella performance. In 2017, Ward started his musical quest.

He released the EP's P 'A Peak at the Summit', 'Valley Hopefuls', and the stellar EP 'Remain Calm', with the catchy single 'Lil Baby Crush'. It wasn't until his critically acclaimed 2023 debut album 'FORWARD' that Ward became the talk of music. His project was propelled by singles 'WHITE CROCS' and 'FAMJAM4000'. Ward's momentum has remained consistent through global tours with JID, Smino, 6LACK, and sold-out solo shows across Europe and North America. This year, he will make his debut in Tolhuistuin.
