He was the founder of the internet rap collective Jewelxxet and was known for pioneering a mixing style he coined "sigilkore", which became its own distinct Internet microgenre. Born in Los Angeles, California, Dear began producing music after getting a laptop for Christmas. He started his music career in 2016 and assumed the stage name "4jay". In 2017, he gained popularity due to one of his beats being used by rapper Tay-K for his song "Gotta Blast" off his second and final mixtape, Santana World. Dear later became a part of rapper SpaceGhostPurrp's collective BMB Deathrow. He initially gained mainstream attention in 2020 with his single "Bodypartz", which received a gold certification by the RIAA, following a surge in popularity on TikTok. Dear's songs gained wider popularity on social media in 2021, leading to him signing a record deal with Atlantic Records. He was considered an influential figure in the underground rap scene, inspiring notable artists such as Xaviersobased, OsamaSon, Odetari, and Che.
