Samuel William Christopher Watson IV (born March 7, 1974), also known as Krizz Kaliko, is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter.
He has been a long-time collaborator with fellow hometown Tech N9ne and has been affiliated with his brand Strange Music from its inception in 1999.
Personal life
Kaliko is suffering from an autoimmune disorder of vitiligo, a skin disorder characterized by smooth, white patches on certain areas of the body caused by a lack of natural pigment. Several of these patches are particularly noticeable on his face. For his debut album, he used the disease name.
Kaliko has also been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. After the chaos, he named a track on his second album.
Career
Krizz Kaliko began his musical career in the late 1990s when he started working with local producer IcyRoc Kraven. At the time, another local rapper by the name of Tech N9ne was also working with IcyRoc, resulting in the two rappers meeting. At the time, Tech N9ne was working on a song titled "Who You Came To See" and Kaliko made a remark that the song might have a better hook. When Kaliko did not succeed, Tech gave up the opportunity to prove his case, and Tech was blown away by his results. Kaliko will be welcomed into his "inner circle," which will lead to the incorporation of Kaliko by Tech N9ne and Travis O'Guin in the new name Strange Music co-owned by Tech N9ne and Travis O'Guin.
Since then, Kaliko has frequently contributed to Tech N9ne's albums, whether as a rapper or simply providing background vocals for tracks on the album. Although the bulk of his work is focused on his experiences with Tech N9ne, Kutt Calhoun, Rittz, and his colleagues Skatterman & Snug Brim, Ces Cru, and Prozak. Other collaborations include music from the Kottonmouth Kings, Potluck, E-40, T-Pain, Twiztid, Andy Mineo, Chris B, and BTS' RM.
