Tech N9ne's Prodigy Ready to Drop

 Krizz Kaliko brings an interesting perspective and style of music to the hip-hop genre, with concepts focused on his daily battle with the skin disorder Vitiligo as well as a sound he describes as "funkra" (a mixture of funk, rap, rock, R&B, and opera).

The album reflects Krizz's life, focusing on his day-to-day dealing with Vitiligo, a skin disorder caused by the loss of natural pigment and characterized by smooth, white patches on various parts of the body. The album features many Strange Music label mates as well as platinum rapper E-40 from the Bay area.

Catch Tech N9ne, Paul Wall, Ill Bill, and Krizz Kaliko on the Fire and Ice 2008 tour, which ends May 31 in Wyoming.
