[2] He and his brother, Pusha T, formed the rap group Clipse in 1992, and later were introduced to fellow Virginian Pharrell Williams, one half of the high-profile production team The Neptunes.
The group's debut single "The Funeral", helped to generate fan interest in the album, but failed to make a significant commercial impact.
[3][4] In early 2001, Williams signed the duo to Arista Records, through his recently established Star Trak Entertainment imprint.
[2] The album's third single "Ma, I Don't Love Her" (featuring Faith Evans), was a modest hit, reaching No.
[2] Due to contractual requirements, Clipse was forced to stay on Jive, while Star Trak and the rest of its roster moved to a new home at Interscope Records.
[2] While Clipse resumed work on the album, and eventually finished its recording, the duo became increasingly frustrated with Jive, as the label overlooked it in favor of the more pop-oriented acts on its roster, which caused numerous delays in the release of Hell Hath No Fury.
[8] The follow-up to Hell Hath No Fury, titled Til the Casket Drops, was released on December 8, 2009 via Columbia Records.
[2] In April 2010, No Malice announced that he and Pusha T would release solo albums later in the year,[10] and that they were no longer signed to Columbia Records.
[11] In 2011 No Malice published his book Wretched, Pitiful, Poor, Blind & Naked,[12] a memoir about his life, including fearing contracting AIDS, as well as his conversion to Christianity.
[23] A reviewer on Jam The Hype wrote, "No Malice spits timeless bars that listeners will gain wisdom from.
"[24] He and his brother made a guest appearance as Clipse on the track "Use This Gospel" on Kanye West's 2019 album Jesus Is King.
