Typhoon's rap career started in 1999 at age 15 in the hip-hop crew Rudeteenz, together with Rico of Opgezwolle and his brother Blaxtar. Three years later he made his solo debut on the collection album "Vet verse flows". He contributed to the album with the tracks "Het doek valt" and "Alea Iacta Est".

Between 2008 and 2010 he collaborated with Sticks, Rico, James and dj ART as Fakkelbrigade and as such released the album "Colucci Era". In the mean time, he also collaborated with The New Cool Collective to make the 2009 album "Chocolade". After that period of initial success, Typhoon struggled with a burn-out and had been searching for his personal and musical identity. This ultimately resulted in the release of his second solo album in 2014, titled "Lobi da basi" (Surinamese for "Love is King"). This album was instantly widely critically acclaimed and brought him to the attention of a broader musical audience. It ultimately reached platinum status.
