One night at Chinx's [[Far Rockaway, New York]] home, the rapper left Breland working on music to go perform at his show. He never came back, as Chinx was murdered.

After graduation, he moved to [[Atlanta]]. While working a job selling language technology during the day, he wrote music usually until late into the morning hours. Breland taught himself how to produce music on [[Pro Tools]], [[Logic Pro]], and [[FL Studio]]. With approximately 2,000 songs in around five years,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://tasteofcountry.com/breland-cross-country-album-interview-collaborations/|title=Breland Reveals His Secret for Getting A-List Collaborators|work=[[Townsquare Media|Taste of Country]]|author=Dukes, Billy|date=September 13, 2022|access-date=September 19, 2022}}</ref> he made placements with artists such as [[Trey Songz]]<ref name="NY Times" /><ref name="XXL" /> and wrote nearly half of the tracks on ''[[The Golden Child (album)|The Golden Child]]'', the debut from [[Def Jam Recordings]] R&B artist [[YK Osiris]].<ref name="Vice" />

Breland often posted his original material on [[Instagram]]. He started the #BrelandVerseChallenge on the app to engage his fans during [[COVID-19]] quarantine.

In September 2019, he wrote the song "[[My Truck]]", about the truck culture found in rural America. The music was a blend of hip hop and country music and when he posted the song on Instagram, he received a great response, and realized he had found his niche with the country-trap sub-genre.

"I just felt like it was time for people to change their perspective on what country music is and what country music can be, because there is an audience of country music listeners under 30 who believe [[Black Lives Matter]]," he told the ''[[Associated Press]]''. "My Truck" reached No. 26 on the ''Billboard'' Hot Country Songs chart.<ref name="AP1">{{cite news |last1=Hall |first1=Kristin M. |title=Country music reckons with racial stereotypes and its future |url=https://apnews.com/c34fd394a0275f0726cb5bb231f70833 |access-date=September 4, 2020 |work=Associated Press}}</ref>
