Then Matoma worked with Hedegaard on his song “Happy Home”. For that project, Tom signed a contract with Copenhagen Records. Later, he worked on Eminem’s “Business” and Marit Larsen’s “I Don't Want to Talk About It". The song was produced by Tom’s friend Nelsaan.
In 2015, the artist presented a remix to MYNGA’s and Cosmo Klein’s “Back Home”. That year, the musician recorded 33 songs. All of them were uploaded to SoundCloud. The same year, he released the debut LP, Hakuna Matoma. The album featured the work of such artists as Stewart, Popcaan, Jennifer Lopez, Wale, The Notorious B.I.G., One Direction, Dua Lipa, Nico & Vinz, Ralph Tresvant, Becky Hill, Christopher, Sean Paul, Coldplay, Astrid S, Akon, Madcon, Frenship, Dboy, Jason Derulo, and Ja Rule. "False Alarm", "Take Me Back", "Adventure of a Lifetime", "Paradise", and "Stick Around" became hits.
In October 2016, a British band The Vamps offered Matoma to work on the song “All Night”. The song turned out very popular. It climbed to the 13th spot on the Norwegian chart and settled on the 24th position on UK Singles Chart. The single became platinum in the UK.
In 2017, the DJ was nominated for Spellemannprisen '16 (Norwegian Grammy) for Årets Nykommer & Gramostipend (Newcomer of the Year & Gramo scholarship) and Årets Låt (Song of the Year).
In August 2018, the musician released his 2nd LP One in a Million. It climbed to the 12th spot on the Norwegian Albums Chart.
