Fresco, born Terrell Johnson, Jr., was on his way up when the digital-age phenomenon happened, but "LowKey" was at only 6,000 listens before "Real Friends" was posted by West. Within a day, the streaming total for "LowKey" had exceeded 400,000, and after it hit two million, Epic came calling. An announcement was made that the artist -- who coincidentally counts West, as well as Kid Cudi, among his inspirations -- had signed with the major label. Rory denied the signing, although "LowKey" did end up on Epic's streaming-only various-artists compilation Epic AF, with G-Eazy added to the song's remix. Rory's catalog multiplied in size during the last couple years of the 2010s. Independently, he issued over a dozen tracks, the full-length titles Pretty Death Machine and True Story, and the seven-track 816icko. ~ David Jeffries, Rovi
