Young Soldierz were formed during the making of the debut Bloods & Crips album Bangin' on Wax. Young Soldierz released their first and only album, Young Soldierz, in 1994 along with two singles entitled "If Tomorrow Comes" and "Alligator".
While still contributing to the Bloods and Crips' second album, Bangin' on Wax 2... The Saga Continues, they met Death Row Records' co-founder Suge Knight and signed to Death Row Records. The group were featured on the soundtracks from Murder Was the Case in 1994 and Gang Related in 1997. After Death Row Records started struggling in 1998, the group departed. Big Wy and Dog contributed to the album How Deep is Your Hood with the Damu Ridas, and created a group called The Relativez.
