His initial breakthrough came in 1997 with an appearance on the one and only album by the Firm, a highly touted supergroup featuring Nas, AZ, Nature, and Foxy Brown alongside producers Dr. Dre and the Trackmasters. Following this high-profile appearance, Half-a-Mill then contributed "Some Niggaz" to the Def Jam-released Belly soundtrack in 1998, setting the stage for his solo debut, "Thug Ones." The momentous track, which featured Noreaga, Kool G Rap, and Musolini, sent ripples through the New York hardcore rap scene in 1999 and became the leadoff single for Half-a-Mill's debut album, Million. Unfortunately, the album, released in 2000, didn't do as well as many had expected, moving only about 40,000 units -- a respectable number yet not quite on a par with the big boys -- and the Brooklyn rapper lost much of his momentum. He returned two years later in 2002 with his second effort, Da Hustle Don't Stop, which Warlock Records had preceded with the release of "Still." With its defiant hook, this radio-serviced single took aim at those who claim Half-a-Mill had fallen off: "Still gangsta/still ghetto/still street."

Half-A-Mil Lyrics
Yeah gotta get it right
Yeah
Game go how it go can't change that
Still lovin' like your favorite jeans
Hit one time, than you gotta bring it back
Yup, that's how you know
I made my heart turn cold, 30 below
Pack full of weather, it's freezin'
Header straight off the deep end
Queue up Kurupt, "We Can Freak It"
One time, we don't do no free shit
Two times, we don't do no free shit
Head on the baseline, I'm so seasoned
Internet niggas like "where he been?"
Gotta tell you bout this crazy turn of events
Managing myself for the last three years
Few million dollars spent at renting cribs
Double overtime to recoup the agreement
Without no infrastructure it don't mean shit
I been getting to the cake, DOLO
Before my deal with Ethiopian Polo
When I was tryna be Yeezy with the polo
Real life nigga
Watch who you put your trust in
I can't be your husband
The nigga still hustlin'
Half-A-Mil pendant, got it diamond encrusted
Means get declined if it
Ain't about the numbers
That's just how the game go
Run deep, we ain't on the same boat
We don't blow the same smoke
I'ma stack it up and cop a couple thangs
Though
Game go how it go!
It's no playback when you the one with the
Rock making plays out here
Leave 'em all dead is the main idea
Cause they be talkin' bad bout the team
Real shit hS87 who I'm gettin' money with
You can hate me, but the is encrusted
Cards get declined if it
Ain't about the numbers
Hit-Boy got beats, but for real he a hustla
Weed all out the window when the truck spin
I'ma do it like old dog, keep bussin'
I gotta go home and see my son, no question
Told her come throw that shit in my direction
Fresh orange juice and veggie for breakfast
Got in the shower, came back and I racked it
It rained all day when Trump got elected, so
One time, we don't do no free shit
Two times, we don't do no free shit
I think that odds ain't even
Told her baby, chill
We'll fuck on the weekend
R&B style, she gettin' me the candy
Just cause he hit it, don't hate on the men
(preach) two oldschools, that's 75 a piece
But the money ain't shit
It's about what's underneath
I don't change waterfalls
Take over the bleach
With the OPM flag, waiving in the breeze
Game go how it go! Can't change that
Still love it like your favorite jeans
Hit one time, than you gotta bring it back
Yeah! That's how you know
Bet it all on black and let it roll
Back to the city, I'm speedin'
The exhaust is screamin'
Granny used to be off, yeah!
Me and my granny used to visit the
To hit the crib in time to watch troop on our
Requesting box videos
Way before they had Vimeo
I got shit to lose
Can't let you get in the way
I don't chase pussy
I chase deposit's at Chase
90210 zip at the new place, yeah
Game go how it go game go how it go
Yeah
Game go how it go can't change that
Still lovin' like your favorite jeans
Hit one time, than you gotta bring it back
Yup, that's how you know
I made my heart turn cold, 30 below
