Cage Kennylz (real name Christian Palko), commonly known as Cage, is an underground rapper based in New York City, United States. He is known for his acid rap horror-core lyrics, inspired by his experiences in a mental institution as a teenager. He is also notable for a short-lived feud with Eminem (insults directed at him on The Slim Shady LP) in the late 1990s.

What follows below is a detailed life-long history of Chris Palko, aka Cage. While there is a whole lot of information here, none of it is filler; everything detailed below was instrumental in making Cage who he is at this point, and the story below is one of the most insane, crazy, tortured and triumphant stories you could imagine. Cage’s life has gone from watching his father shoot heroin, to addiction and violence and mental institutions to cutting an album for Columbia Records and being a rising star in the heyday of the NYC independent rap scene, to the final culmination and personal triumph that this album has become. It’s a brand new record from someone who has been through more extreme circumstances than most people could ever imagine, and has come out triumphant and a better person because of it, and whose artistic vision now reflects this.
