Kazi unearthed an EP he did with Madlib back in 1996 called BLACKMARKET .

BLACKMARKET was recorded at Madlib’s bedroom studio, Crate Diggas Palace (Photos) in Oxnard CA on reel-to-reel tape.

Kazi’s first appearance on record was on Lootpack’s Soundpieces: Da Antidote in 1999. The following year Kazi released the Madlib-produced EP Down for the Kaz and appeared on Madlib’s Madlib Invazion EP, both on Stones Throw.
