When did Lil Dicky enter the world of music?

In the past, David disclosed that he started his rap career “simply to get attention comedically, so [he] could write movies, write TV shows and act” but he ended up falling in love with rapping and he said, he’s “not leaving that game until [he’s] proved [his] point.”
