History

Beginning (2007 — 2009)

Zodiac MPrint formed back in 2007. The group debuted on Blaze Ya Dead Homie's album Clockwork Gray, doing 2 songs ("I'll Connect", "E.O.D."). In the albums pamphlet there was a flyer for Zodiac MPrint's debut album titled "Horrorscope".

Reformation (2012 — 2015)

During Blaze Ya Dead Homie's 2012 GOTJ seminar, Blaze Ya Dead Homie announced that The R.O.C. was back to making new Zodiac MPrint music. Around that time, Strange Music Inc. artist Prozak released a EP titled Nocturnal which had a song featuring The R.O.C., ("Knuckle Up"), who appeared courtesy of Psychopathic Records. In December 2012, a few weeks before the announcement, Twiztid left Psychopathic Records, subsequently The R.O.C. followed, never giving Psychopathic Records a chance to make the announcement.

In early 2013 Blaze Ya Dead Homie left Psychopathic Records, with it being announced at that year's GOTJ. On The R.O.C.'s various social media accounts he was saying that he has been creating new Zodiac MPrint music. The name that he was using for the title was "Skywalkers", as was Blaze Ya Dead Homie on his social media accounts.

In early 2014 Twiztid announced that they would be releasing a free mixtape titled "For Tha Fam Vol. 2", and that there would be 2 Zodiac MPrint songs ("Beware Of The Wolf", and Gettin' Wu Wit It). Zodiac MPrint had 2 unofficial songs on Blaze Ya Dead Homie's album Gang Rags: Reborn ("Give Em What They Want", "Dead Like Me").

At the 2015 GOTJ Twiztid announced that The R.O.C.'s album should be out in early 2016.
