He is also the frontman of the hip hop collective Army of the Pharaohs.
Paz was born in Sicily, Italy, where he lived for a short time before moving with his family to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He is of Sicilian/Italian heritage. He has both Italian and American citizenship. Paz originally started rapping with fellow Jedi Mind Tricks member Stoupe in his basement.
In 1996, Paz released the Amber Probe EP. This was the debut EP from the duo and it was released in 1996. It featured guest appearance from The Lost Children of Babylon. It was in 1997, Jedi Mind Tricks released their debut album; The Psycho-Social, Chemical, Biological & Electro-Magnetic Manipulation of Human Consciousness (often abbreviated as The Psycho-Social CD). The group only consisted of Paz and Stoupe the Enemy of Mankind at this time and featured Apathy, Jus Allah, and Black Thought.
He released his first solo album, Season of the Assassin in 2010. This was 18 years after Paz had originally started rapping. He released his second album God of the Serengeti in October 2012. In 2013, Paz confirmed that he was working with Army of the Pharaohs to release In Death Reborn, which was released in 2014. October 22, 2013 marked the release date of his second EP, Carry On Tradition. Paz's third solo LP, The Cornerstone of the Corner Store, was released on October 28, 2016. He released his fourth solo album, The Pain Collector, in September 2018. Subsequently, his newest solo album titled As Above so Below was released in February, 2020.
Paz owns an independent record label, Enemy Soil.
Paz is known for his raw and gritty lyrical delivery. His lyrics frequently contain references to religion, war, politics, mythology, conspiracy theories, and the paranormal. His more recent albums such as Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell show a more obvious approach to politics and world issues. This gritty style of Paz became apparent with the release of Violent by Design, and has become progressively more defined since its release.
Raised Catholic, Paz is now a Muslim, which plays a major role in much of his lyrics, often controversially, as on "Heavenly Divine", where he rapped "I'm with Allah 'cause he chose me, I broke into the Vatican, strangled The Pope with his rosary." Paz is also a heavy metal fan, and occasionally uses song titles and band names in JMT tracks and lyrics.
Paz has a number of aliases, such as: "Ikon the Verbal Hologram", "Louie Doggs", "Boxcutter Pazzy", "Pack Pistol Pazzy", "Hologram", "Paz", "Vinnie P", "The Pazmanian Devil", Odrama Vin Laden", "Ikon the Python", and "Pazienza".

I'll Buy All the Uranium You've Got
Vinnie Paz Lyrics
Yeah, one-two! Yeah, yeah, one-two!
Yeah! yeah! One-two!
Papo Andy forever! Look, yeah
This a wild guess homie
This a shot in the dark you like baby food
Just another walk in the park
This philosophy I walk into
A Mosque with Descartes
This is Jeffrey Dahmer '89, fork in the heart
This Magnum ain't eat in a while
See the Cal hungry it's why I got my hand in
My drawers like I'm Al Bundy
A lotta y'all know that you
Stolen ya style from me
You can't duplicate what I did
And you wild bummy
What you know about your man being down?
Doing eighteen bullets you ain't
Have him around
We clappin' this like you wearin'
A cap and a gown the hatches is wide open
Better battin' ‘em down
You try to go to war with the man
You muhfuckas ‘bout to ride
In the coroner van this a mind eraser
You can take a shot of this booze
I'm a king, you a pawn
Y'all must got me confused, stupid
Oh no, please don't confuse me (Oh no)
Pistol packin' thought you knew me, oh wee
I got them drugs, I got them guns
I'm not the one
Oh no, please don't confuse me (Oh no)
Pistol packin' thought you knew me, oh wee
I got them drugs, I got them guns
I'm not the one
Yeah, all these weapons like my road dog
Always got the 40 on me, ahki
I'm like O-Dog
Anything you think is yours, money
I will bogart
When you hear the seven trumpets
Blowin' that's a prologue
I ain't have a dime life
Was shitty and cruel
So I learned that when you hungry
You ain't picky with food
Now I'm smokin' outta suttin'
Like a didgeridoo
This a Glock 27 and it's Tiffany Blue
And it's nothing anyone of y'all
Could do to compete
Heavenly Father I thank you for
The food that we eat
I get money ahki, I be in the payday trance
This dummy duckin' shots look like
It's the Nae Nae dance
At the Time Warner Penthouse
Meet me in the Mezzanine
Styrofoam cups, orange soda and promethazine
The type to bring the gas to the fire
This is kerosene
Vinnie nice destroy your fucking
Life like methamphetamine
Oh no, please don't confuse me (Oh no)
Pistol packin' thought you knew me, oh wee
I got them drugs, I got them guns
I'm not the one
Oh no, please don't confuse me (Oh no)
Pistol packin' thought you knew me, oh wee
I got them drugs, I got them guns
I'm not the one
Yeah! yeah! One-two!
