The next year, he founded the record label Rhyme Syndicate Records (named after his collective of fellow Hip-Hop artists called the Rhyme Syndicate) and released another album, Power. He became the lead vocalist in heavy metal band Body Count, which he introduced in his 1991 album . Body Count released its self-titled debut album in 1992. Ice-T encountered controversy over his track "Cop Killer", which was perceived to glamorize killing police officers. In the following year, pressure upon Time Warner, the parent company of Warner Bros. Records, to censor or hold back any music or form of content that was deemed too dangerous for public consumption -- including Ice-T's next Hip-Hop album, Home Invasion which was supposed to be released early in 1993 and was under scrutiny for its album cover artwork -- ultimately prompted a severance of the relationship between them and Ice-T. Home Invasion was released later in the Fall of 1993 directly on his Rhyme Syndicate label through a new distribution deal with Priority Records instead. Body Count's next album was released in 1994, and Ice-T released two more albums in the late 1990s.

Nathaniel Wilson (born July 20, 1968), better known by his stage name Kool G Rap, is an American hardcore rapper from the Corona section of Queens, New York. He began his career in the mid-1980s as one half of the group Kool G Rap & Polo, and also as a member of the Juice Crew, who were involved in The Bridge Wars (widely regarded as the first notable Hip hop rivalry). Although significant commercial success has largely eluded G Rap, he has gathered a reputation as one of hip hop's grittiest, and most consistent lyricists. In particular, his multi-syllabic rhyme patterns have proven to be influential upon a slew of latter day rappers such as Nas, and Big Pun.

Biography
Early Years
Wilson grew up in the poverty-ridden streets of Corona Queens, New York with legendary producer Eric B. In an interview with The Source he stated;
Around this time, Wilson was looking for a DJ, and through Eric B., he met DJ Polo, who was looking for an MC to collaborate with. In 1986 on Mr Magic's Rap Attack radio show on 107.5, the duo got their first exposure which created more buzz. They eventually released "It's a Demo" as a single with "I'm Fly", along with two more singles. Shortly after this, Kool G Rap appeared on the Juice Crew's classic posse cut 'The Symphony' before they released their debut album, Road to the Riches in 1989. This album and their two later albums, (1990) and Live and Let Die (1992), are highly regarded and considered Hip-Hop classics. Eventually in 1993, Kool G rap parted ways with DJ Polo in pursuit of a solo career.
Solo career
In 1995, G Rap started his solo career with the album 4,5,6, which featured production from Buckwild, and guest appearances from Nas, MF Grimm and B-1 – it has been his most commercially successful record, reaching No.24 on the US Billboard 200 album chart. This was followed by Roots of Evil in 1998.Criticisms of Kool G Rap's solo albums usually focus on the production not being up to the standard of the rapping.
While Kool G Rap has always been popular and well respected in Hip-Hop circles for his lyrical skills, Kool G Rap is described by Kool Moe Dee as "the progenitor and prototype for Biggie, Jay-Z, Treach, Nore, Fat Joe, Big Pun, and about twenty-five more hard-core emcees", MTV describes Kool G Rap as a "hip-hop godfather", adding that he paved the way for a lot of MCs who we would not have heard of otherwise. Eminem, Tajai of Souls of Mischief, Vinnie Paz of Jedi Mind Tricks, Steele of Smif-n-Wessun, Havoc of Mobb Deep, Termanology, Black Thought of The Roots, M.O.P., R.A. The Rugged Man, Bun B of UGK, RZA of Wu-Tang Clan, Adil Omar, Lady Of Rage, Big Pun, Memphis Bleek, Kurupt, Pharoahe Monch, and Twista, among others.
He is also often very highly rated in terms of his technical ability Kool Moe Dee ranked Kool G Rap at No.14 in his book There's A God On The Mic: The True 50 Greatest MCs, sometimes all in the same rhyme scheme for a whole verse, such as on Sway & King Tech's 'The Anthem'. with "laser-like visual descriptions", also providing insight into his rhyming technique.
Mafioso/Street content
Kool G(Genius)Rap is often credited as the first rapper to include mafioso content, as well as a lot of hardcore street content, into his lyrics. – this was long before albums such as Raekwon's Only Built 4 Cuban Linx… (1995), and Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt (1996) made such references popular. the album Live and Let Die (1992) uses samples from the film The Untouchables, the album cover of Roots of Evil (1998) uses elements from The Godfather and Scarface theatrical posters, described by Rolling Stone as "a vivid look inside the misery of the hood"). '''
Personal Life
Wilson was once married to Karrine Steffans. They have one son. He also has children with other women.
