On June 19, 2012, Scrilla had his first and only full-length release with CTE World: The Demonstration (hosted by Bigga Rankin), which had production and feature collaborations with Southside, Killer Mike, Young Jeezy, Super Ced, Freddie Gibbs, and others.

He later signed to Rick Ross's Maybach Music Group label in about 2016 or 2017.[e] In addition, he created a single under the same name on the same release date as his album. The single's lyrics suggest he forgave his shooter due to his religious beliefs.[2][12][1][15][16]

He was shot in the right leg by two AK-47 assault rifles and a handgun in a driveby at Overtown and was sent to the Jackson Memorial Hospital. LT, a co-founder of Tru Story Entertainment, picked him off the ground and saved his life during the shooting.[13][17][14][18][19][20] He grieved the deaths of his father, brother, and son in 2017.[g][2][15]
