Shipititez co founded Weird Naked Indians in 1997 with fellow Vallejo, California musician Josh Wooley, known in the Weird Naked Indians by his alias "Tha Letha Face Killa". In 1999 Shipititez and Josh Wooley went on to found the experimental group Yankem and the jobbers, with local musician, vocalist Issac Kain. He would go on to leave Yankem and the jobbers, after the substance abuse problems, and fake death of vocalist Issac Kain, forced the group to disband in 2000.

Shipititez was a founding member of the Backyard Wrestling Federation CWF Devastation (Founded in Vallejo in 1997) , where he wrestled under the persona of "The Master" Kevin Blake. He also served as one of the voices of the CWF, on the Devastation television as wrestling commentator Mark Berga.

In September of 2000, Shipititez joined the U.S Navy, where he served as a Sonar Technician aboard the submarine USS Alabama (SSBN-731). It was during his Navy years that he released his first solo record Zodiac 707, which was written and recorded while at sea aboard the submarine Alabama. Zodiac 707 was released in 2003, and has been called an underground classic, notable for its unique sound and lyrical content. During his time serving in the Navy, Shipititez also recorded a Horrorcore record, that he released under the name Mzak Kraze. Mzak Kraze was a concept based hip hop album, based on a cannibalistic crack head serial killer character of the same name. The Mzak Kraze album "From the Sewers to your living room..." was released in 2002 on Krooked records.

Shipititez moved to Fort Bragg, California in 2003, where he joined the Thrash Metal band Admiral of the black. AOTB disbanded in 2005 after splitting over personal differences.

Soon after the release of Sonar, Shipititez recorded an album with AOTB frontman Whiskey McManus, and a vocalist from Iowa named Goat Shipman; entitled Kingdom Whiskeydick. Kingdom Whiskeydick was a punk/metal crossover album, with all lyrical content dedicated to drinking alcohol and an alcoholics lifestyle.
