Demoz parents met in 1978 and was born in 1984 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Demoz grew up on the streets where he used to sell drugs to make an extra income. He used to see addicts doing drugs and thought that it was hopeless and evil. Demoz started to rap at an early age of 14, but it was in 2002 (at the age of 18) he started to take his career seriously having released several mixtapes in the street.
In 2006, Demoz was approached by Jedi Mind Tricks frontman Vinnie Paz and it was then he became member of Army of the Pharaohs.[2] Despite not being on their debut album, The Torture Papers, Demoz was on the groups second album Ritual of Battle which was officially released on September 21, 2007 via Babygrande Records.

A music video for the single Bloody Tears was released in 2007 and Demoz made an appearance.
Being featured as a member of Army of the Pharaohs led to many gateways for Demoz, he went on to feature on Jedi Mind Tricks sixth studio album; A History of Violence on the song Deadly Melody alongside Block McCloud, who at the time wasn't a part of Army of the Pharaohs. Demoz collaborated with Army of the Pharaohs affiliate and longtime friend Doap Nixon for his debut solo album Sour Diesel. Demoz was featured on the tracks Gangsta which also featured Planetary and Reef the Lost Cauze and the track Get Dirty which was also featuring Reef the Lost Cauze
Early 2009, Demoz announced he was working on a new mixtape that contained never before heard tracks titled; The Pyscho's Back. It was officially released in August 2009. The album was hosted by Vinnie Paz. The first single off the mixtape was released on July 15, 2008 titled Mad Izm. The mixtape featured guest appearances from Vinnie Paz, Jus Allah, Des Devious and contained production by Ill Bill, Sicknature, Shuko, Skammadix amongst others.
On March 19, 2010, Army of the Pharaohs released their third studio album The Unholy Terror. The album debuted in the Billboard 200 at number 179 selling 3,200 units in its first week of release. Demoz made an appearance on the tracks Ripped to Shreds, Prisoner, Suplex, Drenched in Blood, 44 Magnum, Cookin' Keys and Hollow Points.

In 2010, Demoz was seen collaborating with Vinnie Paz on his debut studio album Season of the Assassin on the track Brick Wall along with Ill Bill.[15] A production remix of this track was later featured on the EP Prayer for the Assassin by Vinnie Paz.[16] In 2011, Demoz was featured on Jedi Mind Tricks album Violence Begets Violence on the songs Carnival of Souls and When Crows Descend Upon You.[17] Long time friend Doap Nixon hollered Demoz to work with him on his third studio album Doap Traffiking: The Rise and Fall of Darth Nixon. He was featured on the tracks Wherever I Go alongside Zilla & Helen Sciandra and the single One More Chance.[18] A music video for One More Chance was released on June 22, 2011.

VINNY PAZ
y'all mother fuckers woke a demon up
The bullets splatter through your spleen and guts
The whole click duckin they PO, they need to pee in cups
We murder shit like everything the Europeans touch
I don't even talk to mother fuckers that could lead the trust
We on our D and devils only deal with greed and lust
Feed an elephant with bear hands and take his lead and tusks
Anytime you hear a cop was murdered best believe its us
Jus Allah load the glock put em in norweigen dust
I ain't I sucka I was born with hercules in us
Strangle snakes, dangle grapes fed by European sluts
Y'all know where to come to when you need the fuckin trees and dust
Ayo D?? I need by ?? these fucks
I got the power to devour trees , seas and such
I got the power that's the caliber of jesus touch
It don't matter the caliber I proceed to rush
Vinny on a whole nother algebra than the Greeks could touch
(verse 2)
D MAZ
Let me tell you lil somthin bout a nigga named Maz
Look in his eye you could see the evil if you high
You could notice a little nigga that's eager for the sky
Behind bars scarred like jesus when he died (when he died)
Nigga I was in the hole for a whole 6 months gettin high off the reefer thinkin why
I'm with the roachs and rats hopeless and ?? line and line and the hole in the crack
Nigga I was in the hole tryin gettin my back, niggas snitchin and Ceo tryed gettin my bag
But I don't give a fuck about a snake or a fag a hater id rather see Adolph paid off, laugh
This is real life fuck gettin paid off rats
And sellin my soul to the devil gettin paid off rappin
Mozerade, Maz , Pazienza clap boys ?? back man you still screamin duffle bag boys
(verse 3)
Jus Allah
I have lived a century
I've tapped into my 6th sensery
I am a potential enemy
My entire inner chemistry, every inch of me, is divinity
Unequivically supremacy
I am undesired energy
Sends friendly, sends empty
Show the prince of peace no clemency
Give him an extremety of insensitivity
Let his kid and ministry witness his disassembly
I just lost sufference, undestructive, unproductive, tussid
Not much substance, thuggage
Above judgement
Unaware of any error of delt
Where it counts I'm a fair amount of paramount
I am body a monopoly of ungodly
The ????????
My apology, arrid, insencarity, carity, buried generic its hilarity
The lyrics in "Terror" by Demoz speak of intense violence and hostility, with each rapper taking turns to describe their own experiences with power and destruction. Vinny Paz kicks off the song with a reference to his own "demon" within, which has been unleashed upon whoever has crossed him. He boasts of his group's ability to evade law enforcement, and their penchant for killing cops. Jus Allah steps in with boasts of his own divinity, describing himself as supreme and merciless. He speaks of wanting to dismantle religious leaders and their families, with no regard for the consequences. D Maz concludes the song with a personal account of his time in prison, surviving off of drugs and surrounded by pests. He speaks of how he does not care for money or fame, but instead only wants to see his enemies suffer.
One possible interpretation of this song is that it is meant to be a commentary on the corrupting nature of power. Each verse presents a different perspective on how power can be used to oppress and destroy others. Vinny Paz represents the brute force side of power, using violence and intimidation to get what he wants. Jus Allah represents the ideological side of power, using his beliefs to justify cruelty and harm. D Maz represents the personal side of power, using his own struggles and traumas to fuel his anger towards others.

@JohnSmith-bq6ww
I like how sometimes when Jus's verse is last in the song there's a longer instrumental before he starts. Its like we are being prepared for the god. I know lots of people don't like his new style. I prefer his old tone myself (violent by design era) but his new one does grow on you. His lyrical ability has just gone from amazing to supreme now though
@timbobimbo22
Ya except that babygrande bitch ruins it lol
@poncho_x4410
I think he's just as good as hes always been, if not better dude. Either way though, he for sure just absolutely fucking DESTROYS his verse in this song man.
@poncho_x4410
This track will forever be one of Jedi's greatest songs dude. I absolutely love Jedi Mind Tricks man, one of the few true hip hop groups that was left during their era.
@emkodapimp
