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.

You just get P on the phone

[Silkk]
Yo, 2000 nigga (2000 nigga)
3 Strikes (next millenium)
No Limit, thugged out Silkk the Shocker what?
Let me tell you why I'm a rich nigga
cause I don't fuck a bitch, nigga plus I flip quicker
(??) is what I have, but I can some account me six figures
and then, y'all niggaz do the math
If it was the first time I'd try it again
Brought checks that can buy me a Benz
And for the rumors I'ma cut it short right now, look
Me and Mya, we just friends
I'm Silkk, the, Shocker, call me Shocker for short
You can catch me thuggin the West coast
either catch me, shop in New York
Either poppin the cork on the Cristal
and then let a thug, diss while a nigga banked up
Summertime tanked up, shit
Wintertime, minked up
Be drivin a Ferrari with a tan cover
Niggaz screamin fuck you cowards, (?) in nine-nine
for two-thousand shit the same color
When I come through I come through rowdy (ROWDY)
When I come through I come through bout it (BOUT IT)
When I come through by the ones, I be comin through
by the thousands, nigga better back up
Deal with a jack, now keep the money where the tank at
And when ya hate y'all (?) to hate me,
kinda like expect that
See all it take for me to flex the trigger
is when dollars involved gotta X a nigga
because it's like, "Money Cash Hoes" like DMX and Jigga
Chorus: Silkk the Shocker

Pull up like a star or somethin

Hopped out, tipped the valet a, hundred dollars
Walked up to the bar where you sell most expensive champagne
Look here, I want a hundred bottles

Seen a woman told her don't even trip on money

Put that shit up what y'all got them little small diamond shit
