As one of the founding members of rap collective Odd Future, Los Angeles rapper Casey Veggies was already a well-known name in hip-hop long before his debut album dropped in 2007. He was a brief but founding member of the group, appearing on its 2007 release The Odd Future Tape before breaking out with his own mixtape, Customized Greatly, Vol. 1, which was released that same year. Customized Greatly, Vol. 2 followed in 2009, and the rapper spent 2011 promoting his Sleeping in Class mixtape on tour opening for Mac Miller. Customized Greatly, Vol. 3 landed in 2012, then the Life Changes mixtape dropped in 2013, the same year the rapper signed with Epic Records. In 2014 his “Backflip” single was released, featuring special guests YG and Iamsu! “Tied Up” featuring DeJ Loaf followed in 2015, and both singles landed on that year’s Live & Grow album. Over the following years, he collaborated with South African musician Cassper Nyovest and Wiz Khalifa. He returned to his own material in 2018 with the singles “Broke” featuring 03 Greedo and “Show Off” with Khalifa. ~ David Jeffries
