    Snoh signed with No I.D.'s ARTium Recordings in 2013.

    2017-2018: "Feels"

    On 20 October 2017, Snoh released her debut album, Feels, with features from Vince Staples, Vic Mensa, and Timbuktu. The album is a "nostalgic blend of soul and R&B" which she calls "cinematic soul". Her single "Time" was sampled by Drake on "Do Not Disturb", the closing track on his 2017 mixtape More Life. On September 12, 2018, her single "Nothing Burns Like the Cold" featuring Vince Staples, was used by Apple for their iPhone XS announcement video and commercials.
