His first hit single, "Step Out", was one of the most popular dancehall songs in 2005. A music video of Step Out was released shortly afterwards. He was nicknamed Busy Signal by his friends because of the fact that he is constantly busy. His hit tracks for 2007/2008 were "Nah Go A Jail Again", "Smoke Some High Grade", "Tic Toc" and the crazy track ripping the charts entitled "Unknown Number" has made tremendous airplay and dancehall reviews especially in the Caribbean and the U.S. He has released a hit dancehall album entitled Step Out.

He was once at odds with fellow dancehall artist Aidonia where both exchange lyrical words but that didn't materialize in a clash. Later in 2008 dancehall artist Vybz Kartel produced various "dis tracks" aimed at Busy Signal and other alliance members, to which Busy responded with a few tracks.
