His debut single "Live Sheck Wes", released in 2016, found some moderate success on the streaming app SoundCloud.
He was later signed to a joint deal in 2018 with Kanye West's "G.O.O.D. Music" and Travis Scott's "Cactus Jack" label, and his debut project, "MUDBOY" was released on October 5th of that same year.
Despite not being a single, Travis Scott's "ASTROWORLD" album track alongside Juice WRLD and Sheck Wes titled "No Bystanders" charted in some countries, including the USA, where at #31 it was Wes' first entry in the country.
Following the track's mild success, the song "Mo Bamba", off his aforementioned debut album and inspired by his friendship with the basketball player of the same name, became a smash hit over a year after its release, reaching the top positions of charts all around the world, including a #5 in Canada and a #6 in the USA.
Part of the single's popularity was due to an Internet meme were Know-it-all, a character from the animated 2004 film "Polar Express", was supposedly asking a group of people if they wanted to hear the above-mentioned hit single by Sheck Wes or label mate Travis Scott's track "SICKO MODE".
His following singles "Do That", "Chippi Chippi" and "Enzo (with DJ Snake featuring Offset, Gucci Mane and 21 Savage)" failed to enter any important charts.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Want the ho, she ain't got no ass
Don't lose twice, I'ma take that cash
Then I fuck on your ho, too
Shoot, I keep the pole like a goddamn flag
I don't chase, bitch, I don't play tag
My motto is to count this cash
Then I fuck on your ho, too
Uh, fuck your whole crew
Sheck Wes, fucked your ho too
You rub on my feet 'cause I don't touch on no toes, boo
My mood so blinding, invisible when I move through
This cloak on me, I got cost me a little juice
Convict like Akon, talk shit like Draymond (Draymond)
If you talk hard and don't play hard, get zipped up like Akron
Nigga blowin' up, like napalm
.23 like LeBron
SV, SL young baller like LeBron
That work play, I play hard (Sheck)
Got the bottoms up, like Trey Songz
Similes and metaphors, that bullshit, I play on
I like the story and that bitch what I play on
And that bitch love whorin'
My dick what she holdin'
Hope my blunt burn slow 'cause life goin' too fast
Want the ho, she ain't got no ass
