His journey began with the release of his hit single "She Bad" in 2017, which quickly gained popularity in Trinidad and Tobago and beyond.

However, for Carnival 2025, Turner has returned with a renewed purpose, paying tribute to his daughter through his music. His songs, including "Rum and Soca," "Butter," and "Everybody- Power soca," reflect his healing and the joy of dancing, as Zuri loved to dance. Turner's music is a way of celebrating her vibrant spirit and showcasing a father's love and the unbreakable bond between parent and child.
Turner's music continues to resonate with fans, and his performances promise to embody the spirit of a father’s love and the joy of soca music. His upcoming Carnival 2025 performances are expected to be as dynamic as they are heartfelt, with a focus on blending soul and soca to bring deeply personal stories to life through music.
