Paris is a hip hop artist from San Francisco known for his militantly confrontational rapping, and especially the controversial track "Bush Killa". After earning a degree in economics from University of California-Davis, Paris founded Scarface Records but released his first single with Tommy Boy Records. The Devil Made Me Do It was his critically acclaimed debut LP; the title track was banned by MTV.

Paris' 1992 (see 1992 in music) follow-up, Sleeping With the Enemy, was not released due to the anti-George H. W. Bush track "Bush Killa". Unable to find a distributor, Paris released it on Scarface and the album was a critical success though sales were slim. Guerilla Funk (1994, 1994 in music) was similarly unpopular, as was the follow-up, Unleashed, which drew cries of selling out with its G funk sound and gangsta rap lyrics.

His most recent album is Sonic Jihad and continues his record of controversial album covers. This one depicts plane flying into the White House
