In 2016, $pacely met young Ghanaian Producer Kuvie. This led to the recording of his debut single "Love on Drugs". The single featured and was produced by now members of La Meme Gang- Darkovibes and Nxwrth.[4]

Spending much time together in the creative tutelage of Villain Sounds studio[5] formed a bond between him and five other musicians which led to the creation of the La Meme Gang collective. The name which translates as 'The Same Gang' was coined by $pacely. After the release of their debut EP, they secured four nominations at the 2019 Vodafone Ghana music Awards.[6]

In 2017, $pacely released 'Digits',[7] a heavy trap Nxwrth produced song. A remix to the song was later released which featured Ghanaian rapper Kwesi Arthur.

Alongside his La Meme Gang members, $pacely was featured in a Boiler Room documentary[8] which spoke about the rich history of Ghanaian Culture and also sealed Boiler Room performance.[9]
