Each received triple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), peaked within the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, and promoted the release of their debut studio album, SremmLife (2015), which itself received double platinum certification. Their 2016 single, "Black Beatles" (featuring Gucci Mane) peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100 and preceded the release of their second album SremmLife 2 (2016), which saw continued commercial success. During that same year, the duo also formed their own record label, SremmLife Crew Records.
Their third album, SR3MM was released on May 4, 2018, and served as a triple album. Their fourth album, Sremm 4 Life, was released on April 4, 2023. Despite commercial success as a duo, Lee has focused further on his solo career since the release of his 2018 single, "Sunflower" (with Post Malone).
