Silkk rose to fame in the mid-to-late 1990s, releasing records through Master P's label, No Limit Records. His self-titled debut, The Shocker, was released in 1996. Silkk was featured on Master P's 1998 hit, "Make 'Em Say Uhhh!" and had a minor rap hit with his own single that same year, "It Ain't My Fault," featuring label-mate Mystikal. Silkk also performed with R&B singer Mya on the second single released from her self-titled debut album, "Movin' On." In 1999, Mya and Silkk collaborated on the lead single from his album "Made Man." The track, titled "Somebody Like Me," went on to become one of the year's top-selling singles on the Billboard charts. Since then, Silkk has released two additional solo albums: "My World, My Way" in 2001 and "Based On A True Story" in 2004. Neither release generated the same success he enjoyed in the late 1990s. Silkk was also featured on World Wrestling Entertainment's Wreckless Intent album, which was released on May 23, 2006. The song he performed on the album, I'm Comin', has since been used as the theme song for SmackDown! wrestler M.V.P. Silkk also performed former SmackDown! wrestler Orlando Jordan's theme song, Do It Big.

Mia X: It's all because of you I know what hot boys do
Silkk: And it's all because of you I know what hot girls do
Mia X: It's all because of you I know what hot boys do
Silkk: And it's all because of you I know what hot girls do
[Mia X]

I make sure it's all about me ain't even trying to love 'em
'cause I know you're type hot boys don't want to do right
Screwing everything then have the nerve to want to have a good wife
nah bump that baby get ya sneakers and ya beeper

the table I'm financial stable and able
to let you know what I'm not gone tolerate
pay for everything I got you can't throw shit
in my face wait a minute let me finish my name ain't Sparkle

on a mission paper chasing building things with a sister
I get caught up in my rapture ??? got you like a groupie

if I give her a kiss she be like that's my man he love he just be playing
so I might give you a gift but don't think I'm a trick
I just like to treat real women like they my number one chick

Mama Mia KL on the cut and Mister Silkk the Shocker QB on the beat box
"All Because Of You" by Silkk The Shocker featuring Mia X is a track about the impact that significant others and past relationships can have on a person's perspectives of love and trust. The chorus sets the tone for the song, with Mia X and Silkk singing that their knowledge of "hot boys" and "hot girls" is due to the actions of their exes. Mia X takes the first verse, confidently stating that she knows what hot boys do and that's why she does not trust them. She is not interested in trying to love them because she knows that they only ever want to do her wrong. She talks about her financial stability and her unwillingness to settle for a man who cannot treat her right. On the other hand, Silkk talks about how everything he heard about women turned out to be true, and that he is aware of the greed and promiscuity that some women possess. He finds it difficult to figure them out, and claims that he would not be as popular with women if he wasn't Silkk the Shocker.
The song touches on themes of trust, love, and the impact of past relationships on one's future interactions with significant others. The lyrics show a stark contrast between the attitudes of Mia X and Silkk, with Mia X embodying a woman who is confident and self-assured, while Silkk comes across as skeptical and wary of women. Overall, the song provides a modern take on the idea of moving on from past failed relationships, and learning from them to become stronger and more independent.
