Wise began his career as a composer of various musical genres, including salsa, merengue, Latin pop, reggaeton, trap, and urban music.

Wise has established himself as a prominent figure in the tropical and urban music industries, earning the nickname "Hit Maker." His compositions have achieved commercial success. 11 of his songs reached number one on the Billboard charts across four categories: Hot Latin Songs, Latin Rhythm Airplay, Latin Tropical Airplay, and Latin Pop Airplay, in addition to achieving 27 top 10 positions on the Billboard charts.

Wise is the president and owner of The Gold Pen Music LLC, where he currently works with emerging talent. He is the only composer to simultaneously place five songs in the top positions on the Billboard charts. His notable hits include "Hoy lo siento," performed by Zion and Lennox featuring Tony Dize, which became one of the most-played songs on national radio, and "Diosa De Los Corazones," performed by RKM & Ken-Y, Arcángel, and Zion & Lennox.
