Alex began interest in music in grade school when he began playing the violin. Soon after, he began making hip hop music. In high school, he joined a record imprint called "The Village" with Kembe X, Monster Mike, Isaiah Rashad, Jean Deaux, Spiff, and The Magician.
In November 2015, Wiley released Village Party 2: Heaven's Gate. The album includes a guest feature from Chance the Rapper and Kembe X. The album received high acclaim, eventually ranking among the top 40 albums on iTunes. Since then, Wiley has also worked with other highly acclaimed artists such as Hoodie Allen, Vic Mensa, and more.
Alex was featured on Chance the Rapper's 2016 song "Grown Ass Kid." However, due to clearance issues and the leaking of the song prior to the release, the song was not included on Chance's mixtape, Coloring Book.
