James did not start his professional career as a rapper, in fact he was not even in the sic industry and worked at a fashion store in his hometown. Then in October of 2012, he released his first single All Gold Everything along with its music video.

The video showed him in his usually eccentric fashion sense. This single made him an overnight success and soon he was approached by Def Jam with a $2 million deal to collaborate with his own label and signed in the end of 2012.

After signing on with the label he started working on his music and soon had the EP “Don’t Be S.A.F.E.” released by the label. The EP flopped and got him a lot of criticism, soon after this in 2014 he was fired from his label.
