He scored minor chart success with the singles "Free" and "It's a Summer Thang" featuring Chantay Savage.
Williams grew up on the South Side of Chicago, Illinois and graduated from Whitney Young High School in 1987, where he played basketball and was nicknamed "Doc", because he liked NBA basketball star Julius Erving.
Williams stated that he started off with a group of friends on the South Side, and used to go to his basement, where his father had enough equipment to get some beats together.
He then signed with Smash Records and released his first album, Universal Poet, in 1991, which featured two singles "Are U Wid It?"
In 1998, he released his third and final album Young, Black, Rich and Famous, which included "Free"(a Deniece Williams song) featuring Cristina Sanchez.
