Rock is one half of the legendary rap duo, Heltah Skeltah (Brooklyn, New York), along with Ruck AKA Sean Price. He is also a member of the hip hop supergroup Boot Camp Clik (label: Duck Down Records). Rock left Duck Down Records and pursued a solo career, after releasing two albums with Heltah Skeltah, Nocturnal (1996) and Magnum Force (1998). He signed to DJ Lethal's Lethal Records and recorded a solo album titled Planet Rock, which was never released after the label folded. He didn't make an appearance on the Clik's 2002 group album The Chosen Few, being the only member of the "Great 8" not to appear. He made his official return to Duck Down in 2005, making appearances on Sean Price's Monkey Barz album and Smif-N-Wessun's Smif 'N' Wessun: Reloaded album.
