Career
Casanova started contributing to his music career actively after his release from prison. He composed music and released them on 'YouTube.' Casanova was heavily backed by his ‘Rikers Island’ jail mate and globally acclaimed rapper Rakim Mayers, better known as “A$AP Rocky.” This friendship helped Casanova in building his music career. By 2014, he had already started working on his debut single. He swept the city of New York off its feet with his debut single, 'Don’t Run.' The track was released by Casanova’s own entertainment company, '2X Entertainment.' The single chronicled the hardships and struggles he had faced while he was in jail. 'Don’t Run' was a massive hit and became the most-played track on radio shows. The song was featured and heavily played by DJ Self on 'Power 105.1.' The official music video for 'Don’t Run' was released in June 2016. A remixed version of the song, featuring Young MA, Fabolous, Dave East, and Don Q, was released in February 2017.
Toward the fall of 2016, Casanova and '2 x Entertainment' signed a partnership contract with 'Warehouse/Roc Nation.' The partnership was officially announced by Casanova and rapper Memphis Bleek. Bleek, who played a crucial role in shaping Casanova's career, made the announcement during a radio interview with 'The Breakfast Club' on 'Power 105.1.' The same year, in November, Casanova teamed up with pop–R&B singer, songwriter, and producer Lamont Sincere under his music label. In September 2016, Casanova released his second single, ‘Line Me,’ and a freestyle version of Mobb Deep's track 'Quiet Storm.'
The year 2017 was crucial for Casanova's career. He released three singles, namely, 'The Old 50,' 'Go Best Friend,' and 'Left, Right' (featuring Chris Brown and Fabolous). Casanova also released a mixtape, 'Be Safe Tho,' and appeared with Phresher and Lola Brooke in Maino’s track ‘Doing Well.' Casonava was part of the collaboration concert 'The Party Tour,' along with Chris Brown, 50 Cent, French Montana, Fabolous, OT Genasis, and Kap G.
In 2018, Casanova released a “diss track,” 'Set Trippin,' which brought him a lot of controversy. The track allegedly mocked rapper 6ix9ine, which Casanova, however, denied. He later stated that the track was intended to mock a fellow rapper and not 6ix9ine. The situation worsened when their respective crews clashed at 'Barclays Center' in Brooklyn. The matter, however, was later sorted. Soon, Casanova made statements regarding his cordial relationship with 6ix9ine.
A few months later, Casanova released his debut album, 'Commissary,' featuring G-Eazy, Rich the Kid, Snap Dogg, A Boogie wit da Hoodie, and Mozzy, as guest artists. A partnership with ‘JPAY,' a corrections-related service provider, made sure around 200 thousand inmates had access to the album.
