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.

What heavens like (nothing like this)
And we can only imagine
From the other side (nothing like this)
Can you tell me what it's all about
When I'm on my knees I cry out
Explain why is the world like this?
I wanna meet you
I wanna see you
I don't want it to be this hard
To see this proof of God
People die, children cry
People lie, I don't know why
I think you would be feeling the same
If you were the one in my place
I wanna love you
I wanna know you
I want to tell you things I think your telling me
I wanna meet you
I wanna see you
I don't want it to be this hard
To see this proof of God
Can you tell me what it's all about
And why the world is overcrowded
My days are gray and look the same
Feels like it's not going changing
Can you tell me what it's all about
Some people gotta do without
Maybe I'll teach the world to sing
Then everybody live my dream (Yeah!)
I wanna meet you
I wanna see you
I don't want it to be this hard
To see this proof of God
People die, children cry
People lie, I don't know why
I think you would be feeling the same
If you were the one in my place
I wanna love you
I wanna know you
I want to tell you things I think your telling me
I wanna meet you
I wanna see you
I don't want it to be this hard
To see this proof of God
Praise God my brother
Dear heavenly father right now in the name of Jesus
I come over to you Lord of Grace
Lord I come asking great blessings and favor right now for this young man
Lord I come asking hope in his eyes and his mind, holy spirit
To know that what you have in store for him it is in store for him
And lord whatever the situation may be, sometimes it may be cloudy
And we may not understand life's situations lord but I know that your in
Complete control of his career, his family, his finances Holy spirit Lord and even
Bless his audience Holy spirit Lord
Give him strength to trust in you, Holy spirit Lord
Lord give him strength to know what you have for him, it is for him
Favor, favor, favor
In Jesus name I pray, Amen
Much love to you Krizz

I'd love to share a spliff with this talented singer (if he partakes of 4:20) and review some theology....deep thinker he is.
The proof is in the same evidence that others offer as reasons to doubt, the beauty of the mountains, the sunrise, or a new born child. When we see a negative (demon) cast upon the world we must seek the light produced from that demon and how it shines that the glory of evil is not promoted further. Because of our simplistic human nature we demand "human" proof of God. God IS the mystery with which the thread of life weaves and interacts with each of us. He IS the power that generates within us to achieve tasks and accomplishments that our mind continually denies our ability. HE is the force that gives us the power to be the better human when we are wronged by another (not accepting a victims role, but being able to forgive after all it is a powerful gift from above). HE is the power with which we stand to defend ourselves from transgressions against and the same power we use to restrain ourselves from committing transgressions against others. God IS not man, nor could his power be harnessed in any one human (including Jesus the Christ) and you'd be a fool to say he does not work in all men (including woMAN).
He can only do these things if we seek to understand and accept the power and reality of those forces. It is one God who works in all to give us that strength, energy, confidence to stand in proper convictions, right our wrongs, and forgive, which develops us into better sentient beings that shine the likeness of HIM throughout the world. Yes, Jesus is an intricate part of gaining that understanding for the Gentiles as is Mohammed, Buddha, and several others who had personal relationships with this heavenly force, but were typecast under religions headings to better serve man's greed.
So, yeah, God is alive and never leaves, but if your looking for a "Santa Clause/Easter Bunny" version you will be disappointed because he IS a living breathing force upon the world whom only concerns his time with those driven to the cause of his whole existence.
We must remember when seeking HIS enlightenment to never be focused on the misunderstandings others speak and profess (FALSE PROPHETS as we are severely warned about) and only concerned with his message of the equality of all the human race, accepting, and loving one another which in turn provides peace amongst us in the world that we can stand together as a universal force of HIS will. In fact it should be remembered that it is none of our duties to comment (at least negatively) of another persons methods of existing or seeking this enlightenment as it is a transgression you commit upon them. With that theology in mind and nothing more one can begin the journey to understanding and cause his revelation. AND THIS CONCEPT DOES NOT DISREGARD ANY ANY HUMAN BASED ON NATIONALITY, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, OR VOTING IDEOLOGIES. HE CREATED ALL OF US...EQUAL. I could keep this going for a bit, but it is not until one acknowledges this unexplainable force acting in all man that one can start to gain a better understanding of the ONE true God and not be misled by the mountains of filth and stipulations that man has placed on knowing him through the greedy guise of religion. These are the foundation to the rules of the game and why each person has to discover them on there own.
Okay, floors open for any stimulating debate....

By far the best song I've heard in a long time! Why can't the radio play music like this instead corrupting children's minds with party drinking & sex. That's all they play most of the time. We need music like this. One love to you Krizz -Kidc8
