Background

"Sticky Fingaz" is a moniker for rapper/actor Kirk Jones. The significance behind the alias is somewhat ambiguous, as Jones has reportedly mentioned various origins. Yet, it generally conveys the idea of theft. Possibly an allusion to his alleged lifestyle of robbery during adolescence. He is noted as saying "everything I touch I take".

Rap career

In 1991, Jones entered the Queens based rap group Onyx along with cousin Fredro Starr, Sonsee, and Big DS. In 1993 the group released their debut album entitled Bacdafucup. It proved to be a commercial success and eventually went multi-platinum, largely due to the well known single "Slam". Jones was considered the most lyrically skilled and anticipated member of the group, and usually appeared in the last verse of their songs. Both fans and critics alike took interest in Sticky's gritty, angry, violent lyrics which went right along with his loud, rough, attention-grasping voice. Aside from this hardcore style, Jones is also known to be very intelligent and displays a mean-spirited sense of humor in his verses. Onyx is a hardcore rap group from Queens, New York. ...

In 2003, he released his second album Decade "...but wait it gets worse" which was less well-received by critics and gained even less mainstream acknowledgement.
