Young Bleed's first glimpse of national fame was when his song with C-Loc, "How You Do That", was released in 1997 and remixed by Master P of No Limit Records. The song peaked at No. 1 on Billboard’s R&B/Hip Hop album charts the following year.
Throughout his career, he released nine studio albums.
