Krizz Kaliko began his musical career in the late 1990s when he began working with a local producer by the name of IcyRoc Kraven. Another local rapper by the name of Tech N9ne was also collaborating with IcyRoc at the time, which led to the two rappers meeting. Tech N9ne was currently working on a song titled "Who You Came To See" and Krizz made a comment that the song could have a better hook. Tech offered up the opportunity to prove his case, and Tech was blown away when Kaliko proved just that. Tech would bring Kaliko into his "inner circle" which would eventually result in Kaliko signing to the label co-owned by his new found friend.
Since then, Kaliko has often contributed to albums put out by Tech N9ne, be it being featured as a rapper or simply providing background vocals for the tracks on the album. Although the largest portion of his work is that of his collaborations with Tech, he has also performed similar tasks for fellow labelmates Kutt Calhoun, Skatterman & Snug Brim, and Prozak. Other collaborations include tracks with the Kottonmouth Kings, Potluck, E-40, and Twiztid.
His debut album, Vitiligo released in May 6, 2008, charted on several Billboard charts including peaking at number 19 on the Top Independent Albums in the week of May 28, 2008. In the same week, he peaked at number 167 on the Billboard 200.
His second studio album, Genius, was released on July 14, 2009.
Krizz has chosen the title Shock Treatment for his third studio album. Other titles he considered were "Son of Sam" and "Walk on Water."
Krizz Kaliko is married and has a son, both are mentioned in his music.
He also suffers from the disease, Vitiligo, a skin disorder characterized by smooth, white patches on various parts of the body caused by the loss of natural pigment. Several of these patches are clearly visible on his face. He would later use the name of the disease he suffers from as the title for his debut album. Krizz has also been diagnosed with Bipolar disorder. On his second album, he titled one of the tracks after the disorder.

(Chorus X2)
She got her backpack, and her lunch pale too
Cheatin when im sitting next to you/Milk would do her body good too, baby
She got her backpack, and I got a ruler for her too
Now im bout to take her back to school
I can tell she got that thing by the way that she walking (walking)
Baby got dem goodies, think she wanna do me,
Shes a floozy oozy wanna give it to me
She got her jack in the box plus shes a fox, might jump right off
If I get the toss, not gonna talk, lights come right off
She know im khali baby, mabe its unfair
I dont care, I just wanna lay in her hair
Give me your number, well rondevue at the after set
Im the one to stunt ya, one to if happen as of yet
Her bubble, gets me in trouble, you can call it too excel, ima call it double
Her back pack, she packed ejects em, she got me erect some
Now I just expect some, your bodies inviting me to a fight

(Chorus X2)
She got her backpack, and her lunch pale too

(Chorus X2)
She got her backpack, and her lunch pale too
Cheatin when Im sittin next to you, baby
She got her backpack, and I got a ruler for her too
Now im bout to take her back to school
In Krizz Kaliko's song Back Pack, the lyrics suggest that the woman in the song is attractive and alluring. The first verse mentions that she has a backpack, a lunch pail, and appears to be cheating while sitting next to the singer. The second verse describes how the woman's movements and speech are seductive, and the singer is eager to be with her. In the third verse, the singer is impressed with the woman's curves, but he is also frustrated because of his desire for her. Finally, the last verse suggests that the singer and the woman will be joined by others, possibly forming a group or gang.
The theme of this song seems to be focused on sexual attraction, with a playful and humorous tone. The lyrics suggest that the woman is desirable, but also somewhat unattainable or even out of reach. The references to school supplies and education give the song a more innocent feel, but ultimately the imagery and language are suggestive and sexual.
