Often in tandem with benny blanco, he has been credited with production work for artists including Kanye West, the Kid Laroi, Selena Gomez, Camila Cabello, Ariana Grande, Tory Lanez, Major Lazer, the Weeknd, and Kali Uchis. His debut studio album, 9 (2017) was released by blanco's Mad Love Records, an imprint of Interscope Records and peaked at number 14 on the VG-lista charts. It also entered the Billboard 200 and included the single "Adore" (featuring Ariana Grande), which marked his only entry on the US Billboard Hot 100.
His debut extended play (EP), Mirror Maru (2012) was met with widespread critical praise. His second album, Princess Catgirl (2019) followed thereafter and experimented with hyperpop.

## Career
### 2006–2015: Early years, Mirror Maru and Wedding Bells

As a teenager, Høiberg began producing music and teaching himself how to DJ. He represented Norway in the DMC World DJ Championships from 2006 to 2009 under the pseudonym DJ Final.

He continued to gain recognition with a number of remixes, including his edits of 2 Chainz' "No Lie," Lana Del Rey's "National Anthem," Miguel's "Do You..." and Jeremih's "773 Love." In January 2013, producer, songwriter and musician Benny Blanco invited Cashmere to New York to collaborate on production work and helped book his first. In 2013 Cashmere Cat also played his first concerts in the United States. That summer, he moved from Norway to Manhattan.
On 11 February 2014, Høiberg's second EP Wedding Bells was released on UK label LuckyMe. In August same year, he produced and featured on "Be My Baby" from Ariana Grande's second studio album My Everything. He was also the opening act during Grande's North American The Honeymoon Tour.
