So here is note to self, if anyone ever thought that MADTRAXX was just an artist or DJ, well I think we s
hould just add producer to the list. I knew he had produced BIG SHOT but I didnt think much about BIG SHOT from a production perspective anyway. When this song was dropped over our offices today and labelled Madtraxx production I had to give it a second listen, and then a third, and then a fourth.
Honestly Madtraxx is on his A game right now on many levels – but I think more than MADTRAXX I would have to say its Prezzo that I am feeling on this track. Many guys don’t really understand PREZZO, and quite frankly I dont think anyone has to. I’ve spent numerous moments with Prezz and he is just one of those cats if you get him you get him if you don’t you don’t. Prezz is a cool cat, I especially like his swagger. I think I have talked about him to so much on this blog that it makes no sense to keep going on and on about him. The fact is for many people who had thought that from a musical career stand point he is done. I think this track the and lyrical delivery and content help restore faith in his demeanor.
On this track he goes hard.. Play close attention to the lyrical content – his rapping style seems to have changed slightly to accommodate the fast paced track that Madtraxx put together. Indeed the King of Bling is back.

I am throwing in this track here because Ive never really posted it and it was one of my top 5 tracks in 2004/05. The video directed by Ted Josiah was also a killer concept. Seeing Styles play a thug and Prezz acting like he big dogg was hilarious. Robe the CMB V.P gets nicked by Stylez crew and then beat up hilarious. Whats really cool about the video concept is that as much as the character depiction was a little over the top, the language and style they communicate was still hood, still African, still Kenyan.. I loved that. When Prezzo hungs up the phone after talking to Stylez.. you hear him say “maze wame shika vice president jo!” priceless moment on that Video.
Bonus Prezzo – P.R.E.Z.Z.O (2004 track)
