Ilboudo started DJing in 2005 under the name DJ Imilo. His parents could no longer afford to pay for his education, and he eventually started performing for small maquis [fr] (bars) and later performed small shows. Taking part in several DJing competitions, he was eventually recruited into the group Les Villageois ("The Villagers") with three other DJs, Baby, Tabaly and Zino, following a competition in 2009. Ilboudo saved up money to rent a recording studio to record his own single, "Mot de Pass" ("Password"), produced by Serge Beynaud. His brother loaned him 250,000 CFA francs to record the music video. Lechanceux sent out his single to promoters and managers, but initially none took interest. However, the song gained large exposure following its broadcast during the half-time of a quarter-final match at the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations. Lechanceux subsequently received many calls from the same promoters and managers who'd turned him away. His solo career began in 2010–2011, which is when he took the name Imilo Lechanceux.
