After releasing his song "Respect My Cryppin'" in October 2018, Blueface became a viral internet meme due to his offbeat rapping style and high-pitched voice. He signed with the West Coast branch of Birdman's Cash Money Records label in November 2018.[2]
A former college football player, Porter began rapping in January 2018 and assumed the stage name Blueface Bleedem, a reference to his ties at the School Yard Crip gang. His first song "Dead Locs" was released on SoundCloud in January 2018, and he released his first full-length project, Famous Cryp in June 2018. The song and EP helped him build a local following in California, and his second EP, Two Coccy was released on SoundCloud and Spotify in September.[3][4][5][6]
He is known for his controversial, abusive relationship with Chrisean Rock, who hails from Maryland.
