Career
Chaozz was formed in 1995 of five members: Bass, Deph, Rusty, Fugaz and DJ Smog. Bass and Rusty had previously been members of another hip hop group, UNIT, established in 1993. and MC Deph had released a solo record, before working with Fugaz on a project entitled Flavamatic. UNIT disbanded in 1994, with Bass and Rusty joining DJ Smog to form the group Chaozz. Shortly afterwards the two groups merged under the name Chaozz.
The group began to achieve success after meeting Ivo Pospíšil, a record-store owner who had contacts in PolyGram. In 1996 they released their first album ...a nastal chaos. After this album they worked with the Slovak group No Gravity on the track "Chaozz věci", which was used on commercials and received airplay on TV Nova and radio stations.
In 2002, after four albums, the group disbanded. Deph joined former UNIT colleague DJ Skupla to form another group, Prago Union, and Bass is a DJ and works on a new project entitled Ba2s.
