Recording music since the early 2000s, Borgeous began to find success in the music industry by 2011, after being heavily involved with the Boulevard Nightlife Group, gaining a keen insight into what makes a big hit. His early releases, "From Cali With Love," "Rags to Riches," "Aggro" and "Gangsterous" piqued the interest of the burgeoning EDM community, with Borgeous becoming a a name-to-watch on the scene.
Beginning his podcast, "I AM BORGEOUS" in 2012, Borgeous was able to gain exposure of his unique style through a number of remixes, gaining significant online support. Borgeous also signed with the labels, Spinnin' Records and Doorn, providing the producer with a platform through which to release his music.
Global success arrived in 2013, after his collaborative single with DVBBS, "Tsunami," made waves internationally, topping the charts in the UK, Belgium and the Netherlands. This smash hit led Borgeous to perform at major festivals across the world, raising his profile amongst EDM fans internationally. Teaming up again with DVBBS, as well as Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike, "Stampede" arrived later that year, finding significant support from DJs globally. Another popular track followed in 2014, with "Invincible," featuring vocals from Julia Michaels. Also that year, a remix of "Tsunami" saw UK rapper Tinie Tempah lending his vocal talents to the track, helping Borgeous find new fans and further chart success with his already successful single.
