Delinquent Habits was formed in 1991, the group itself originally consisted of two MCs, Ives and Kemo the Blaxican, and O.G. Style as the DJ and producer. Thus the group was often called Los Tres Delinquentes. Their first album was executive-produced by Cypress Hill member Sen Dog and featured guest appearances by Sen himself as well as Puerto Rican New York City rapper Hurricane G.

The Delinquents soon struck gold with their hit 1996 single Tres Delinquentes. The song sold over one million copies around the globe, nearly pushing their self-titled album to the same figure. The success of the song and album landed the Delinquents a spot on Late Night With Conan O'Brien and tours with such talents as Korn and Ice T. The group toured around the globe in such locations as the U.K., South America, Japan, Mexico, and Taiwan. Being the only fluent member of Spanish the group, Kemo was known for his flawless bilingual transitions. After twelve years of success and the completion of their fourth album, Freedom Band in 2004, The Blaxican decided to pursue a solo career, in which he has been having some substantial success.

After leaving the group, he recorded the self-produced album Simple Plan in 2004. It was released on his own label, Dead Silence Records. One of his more successful songs, La Receta was included the film 10 Items or Less staring the talents of Morgan Freeman and Paz Vega any several other sitcoms and soundtracks. Similar to some of his previous work, the song tastefully blended a Sonora-styled horn riff with the urban sound of Hip-Hop with multi-lingual lyrics.

The same year as his debut album, Kemo teamed up with Sick Jacken of the Psycho Realm on a collaborative effort to appear on the Spanish hip-hop compilation Imperial Latino; by Profeta Records. The album also featured a track of Kemo's titled No Que No. Along with releasing a second album, titled Not So Rich & Famous, Kemo currently runs his own clothing line Joint Clothing - Joint Marca Fina.

Kemo the Blaxican returned to Delinquent Habits in 2012 and released "It Could Be Round Two" March 3, 2017. The album is a series of hip hop tracks inspired by the collaboration of Ives Irie and Kemo the Blaxican re-uniting to bring back the original and true form that made Delinquent Habits the cutting edge alternative
West Coast Latino hip -hop group for the masses.

When asked about his musical goal, Kemo states:
I want to make a hard-hitting bilingual album for the local hip-hop community and for people worldwide. Latinos have been a cornerstone of hip-hop from day one, and I'm proud to be a part of that lineage." Kemo the Blaxican is a Pioneer of the golden era of Hip Hop.

His latest release is a collaboration with Godforbid from That Handsome Devil. The Project name is "UGLY AT TIMES".
