Krizz Kaliko Biography
Christopher Watson, Samuel William, was the birth name of Krizza Kalika. He experienced vitiligo (a skin condition that results in white patches on the skin due to a lack of melanin production in the body). Krizz suffered bullying for her vitiligo and weight. He was regularly bullied by other students at his school, who would chase him, throw stones at him, mock him, humiliate him and hit him.
Krizz experienced such severe violence as a child that he spent most days coming home from school. The American rapper grew up without many friends, but with a strong family foundation. Everyone took care of him and always helped him when he was incapacitated. While his father was an idol, his mother taught him to sing and helped him prepare for a choir performance.
Krizz was mostly devoted to his sister, who often used a knife or a gun to defend herself from bullies. Thanks to the encouragement of his devoted family, Krizz developed a love for music and a gift for singing. Krizz had a great sense of humor, which occasionally got him into trouble.
When Krizz met Crystal, the love of his life and future wife, he was going through one of the most challenging times in his life. Unfortunately, Krizz lost his father when he was a high school student. This sent him down a never-ending rabbit hole of grief, which later progressed into bipolar disorder.
