Career
Caleb Gordon first began releasing secular music in 2018 while still in high school under the stage name Cash G, and later YTM Cash.[8][9] In 2020, he began releasing Christian music, after being converted to Christianity.[3][10][11]
In 2021, Gordon released three studio albums, Before the Garden volumes 1–4. The first volume was released on March 28, 2021, the second on April 6, 2021, and the third released on April 20, 2021. Although no fourth volume was officially released, the fifth volume was released on June 9, 2023.
In 2024, Gordon released "War". The song peaked at No. 24 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs,[5] becoming his first entry into the Billboard charts.[12] "War" features a sample from the Bob Marley song of the same name, causing the song to be removed in October 2024 for copyright issues. The song was restored a week later.[13]
