Career [link]

With Naughty by Nature Treach worked with fellow group members Vin Rock and DJ Kay Gee. Sometimes he would share verses on songs with Vin Rock, but often, especially on the group's earlier albums, Treach would be the sole performer on the song. Examples of this are some of the group's most well known singles from their self titled second album, such as "O.P.P.," and "Everything's Gonna Be Alright".

His chiseled physique[1][2] has helped him land roles[3] in crime films, television crime dramas and as a leading man in romance films, including a full frontal in the 2001 crime comedy Love and a Bullet.[2]

He was married to Sandra Denton, better known as "Pepa" of the hip-hop group Salt-n-Pepa, from 1998 to 2001. The couple has a daughter named Egypt. He is also the older brother of rapper Diesel from the Rottin Razkals, a close affiliate group to Naughty by Nature. Treach is a New Jersey Member of the Double II Queen Street Blood Gang.

Lick a Shot

by: Cypress Hill

Oh yea it is
Color is not important
Lick a shot
Oh, aah
Comin' at ya
Fire
Zippedy do da, zippedy hey
Cried oh my, wanna get that punk with my AK
And get on the way
On the mission, puffin' on a fat ass jay
Prude, you can't hang
Flash back on the skills when I used to bang
On the corner
I'll warn ya
Gonna roll on ya
Fool
Hit ya with a golden rule
Don't turn your back on the street
When I hit that corner, feel the concrete
If ya push that by like nothin'
Watch me turn to a psycho all of a sudden
Blastin' at these fools with a passion
Look at the clock when it's time for some action
Let the gatt hum
(Lick a shot)
So I let the gatt hum
Let the gatt hum
(Lick a shot)
So I let the gatt hum
Sunday mornin'
Wake up it's stormin'
Raindrops fallin' on my head, it's pourin'
Cats an' dogs
Pigs in a wagon
Lookin' for the Afro, one that's saggin'
Scooby-Doo
An' fucked down town
Ploy me
Don't let your punk ass try me
Gonna take more
Then you better call your backup team
And wait for ya crew
I'm the one flippin'
Keepin' the clip
On my hip an'
Just watch your back if you're slippin'
Where did that twenty two
Come from?
When the bullet past through my lung
I've lost my breath I'm winded
I've been hit by a slug that wasn't intended
I hear thunder
I wonder
If a nigga like me's goin' under
Take a number
Let the gatt hum
(Lick a shot)
So I let the gatt hum
Let the gatt hum
(Hum)
(Lick a shot)
So I let the gatt hum
Had a bad dream
Woke up in a casket
Now I can't even get back at the bastard
Bullshit
This pine box
Ain't strong enough to contain the Afro Marx
Critical bell rings
Snapped out the dream
What the fuck's up with the funny red beam
Pointin' at me
I got no strap G
What now? Gotta duck, they're gonna gatt me
Bam, I feel numb
Where did the shotgun blast come from?
Let the gatt hum
(Lick a shot)
So I let the gatt hum
Let the gatt hum
(Lick a shot)
