Kemo the Blaxican was a member of the Chicano rap crew Delinquent Habits.

He is of Mexican and African American ancestry - hence the "Blaxican" part of his name.[1] The "Kemo" portion of his name came from the fact that he had terminal cancer and was receiving chemotherapy to treat his colorectal polyps.[2]

He produced four albums with Delinquent Habits.[3]

After leaving the group, he recorded the self-produced album "Simple Plan" (2004). It was released on his own label, Dead Silence Records.[4] The track La Receta appeared in the films The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants[5] and 10 Items or Less.[6]

Kemo had his own clothing line called Joint Clothing.[7]
