Ocean Wisdom was born in Camden, London but was brought up in Brighton.[2] His debut single "Walkin'" was released in 2015 on High Focus Records. The song was noted as having been delivered at a faster speed than Eminem's "Rap God" after Ocean managed to fit 4.45 words per second in his track compared to the 4.31 words per second Eminem fit in "Rap God".[3]

He released an EP, Splittin' the Racket, on 20 August 2015.[4]

His full album debut Chaos 93' produced by Dirty Dike was released in February 2016 and entered the official iTunes album charts the same day, peaking at number 10.[5]

Ocean Wisdom's second album, "Wizville", was released in February 2018, peaking at number 39 in the Official UK Album Charts.[6] It featured collaborations with artists such as Dizzee Rascal, Method Man & Roots Manuva and production from a wide range or producers including Leaf Dog, Mystry, Basquiat and Pete Cannon.

Ocean's track "Tom & Jerry" from "Wizville" is featured on EA Sport's FIFA 19 soundtrack.
