Rodríguez sang on Tony Succar's Unity Project, covering Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal" and "Billie Jean", and in 2017 he performed "Super Freak" by Rick James for the BMI Los Producers charity ball. The same year, he served as Beyoncé's vocal coach for her Spanish-language remix of the song "Mi Gente". Through Coastcity, he teamed with his brother on the single "Pa La Calle" in 2018.
Rodríguez was named in two Latin Grammy Award nominations.

Two years later at the 21st Annual Latin Grammy Awards, Rodríguez was nominated for Album of the Year for co-producing the Ricky Martin EP Pausa.
