He began his musical career in 2004, heavily working with local rappers on a number of projects. He enlisted rappers including Mistah F.A.B., J. Stalin, and Shady Nate to embark on his "Stan Bizzness BG's" tour, which was cancelled after Beasley was arrested for selling cocaine and cannabis, for which he was sentenced to year-long jail sentence the following year. His subsequent criminal trials include firearms conspiracy, unlawful weapon possessions, and other federal charges.
Despite remaining independent, he's collaborated with mainstream artists including Rick Ross, Migos, Gucci Mane, French Montana, B.o.B, Jeremih, Fabolous, Waka Flocka Flame, Chief Keef, Juelz Santana, and E-40, among others.
