On August 23, 2019, he released his collab EP "Hijack" with Lousho.
2020–present: Hatchback, Benbow Crescent, and THE INSPECTION[]
Following the success of his singles "Red Head" and "Hatchback", Cochise signed to Columbia Records after being introduced by his manager, Solmon.[4][5] On May 7, 2021, Cochise released Benbow Crescent, his debut studio album. This album was an homage to Cox's Jamaican roots and included 18 featureless songs.[6] Production was handled by Archie Cardella, ProdLouis, ProdbyCarlos, Lousho, and Cox himself.[6]
On May 28, 2021, he later released his song "Tell Em" with rapper $not which peaked at number 64 on Billboard Hot 100 and became both rappers' first song to hit the charts. The duo went on to release a music video for "Tell Em" with Lyrical Lemonade.
Since his debut project, there have been comparisons between Cox and fellow rapper Playboi Carti, since they both have a distinguished "baby voice", which Carti resembled in 2018.[7]
On June 24, 2022, Cox released his sophomore album THE INSPECTION, which included features from Young Nudy and Chief Keef.
