Babyxsosa self-released her debut single "Beat My Ass" in 2018. [4] She joined the musical collective Surf Gang in 2019. [2] Her song "Everywhereigo" was released in February 2019 and became her breakout song after going viral on TikTok during the COVID-19 pandemic. [5] [6] [7] [8] Several months after Surf Gang's debut live performance in Los Angeles in March 2021, Babyxsosa announced that she would be leaving the collective. According to Yousef Srour of Stereogum , Babyxsosa was "Surf Gang's most popular rapper" by the time she left, due to the virality of "Everywhereigo". [7] Her single "Running" was released in July 2021 and her song "Girlfriend" was uploaded to SoundCloud in December 2022. [9] [10] She released the extended play (EP), Bling Bling, in July 2023.

Babyxsosa's music has been described as lo-fi [8] trap, SoundCloud rap, underground hip hop, and plugg. Her EP Bling Bling experimented with synth-pop, synth-punk, and industrial techno, while her self-titled EP was chamber pop and electropop. [5] [4] Her voice has been described as high-pitched. [2] [3] Grammy.com's Yousef Srour called her voice "dainty" and "autotuned" and her music "lush", also writing that her "simple lyrics" were about "feelings of desire and despair". [11]
