[edit] Career
With Naughty by Nature Treach worked with fellow group members Vin Rock and DJ Kay Gee. Sometimes he would share verses on songs with Vin Rock, but often, especially on the group's earlier albums, Treach would be the sole performer on the song. Examples of this are some of the group's most well known singles from their self titled second album, such as "O.P.P.," and "Everything's Gonna Be Alright".
His chiseled physique[1][2] has helped him land roles[3] in crime films, television crime dramas and as a leading man in romance films, including a full frontal in the 2001 crime comedy Love and a Bullet.[2]
He was married to Sandra Denton, better known as "Pepa" of the hip-hop group Salt-n-Pepa, from 1998 to 2001. The couple has a daughter named Egypt. He is also the older brother of rapper Diesel from the Rottin Razkals, a close affiliate group to Naughty by Nature. Treach is a New Jersey Member of the Double II Queen Street Blood Gang.
