Duki began to gain recognition for his appearances in rap battles, such as El Quinto Escalón, which was one of the most important in Argentina, and where he obtained his first share of popularity when he won it in 2016. He could record his first single, "No Vendo Trap," to pursue a musical career thanks to his victory. He then released the singles "She Don't Give a Fo" and "Hello Cotto," which garnered him multiple views on YouTube and earned Lombardo a massive following in his home country. In 2018, he formed an important musical trio for the Argentine trap, named Modo Diablo, with artists YSY A and Neo Pistea. He then released his debut studio album, Súper Sangre Joven (2019), with the lead single "Goteo" being nominated for Best Rap/Hip Hop Song at the 21st Latin Grammy Awards. In 2020, he collaborated on Bad Bunny's album YHLQMDLG in the single "Hablamos Mañana", which was also nominated in the Latin Grammys for Best Urban Fusion/Performance. In 2021, Duki released his second album, Desde el Fin del Mundo, which reached number one in digital albums in Argentina.
