Kamikaze (Album)

Kamikaze is the fifth album by Chicago, Illinois rapper Twista which reached the top of the US Billboard 200 album charts in early 2004 based on the success of the lead single "Slow Jamz". It was released on January 27, 2004.

Making of the album

On his website, Twista stated that he made Kamikaze to show that he was still true to the ideals that he had when he started out. "I represent for the MCs that have skills, not just make music for the hell of it. I take the time to concentrate. Otherwise, I could have 10 albums out there, easy. I could sit down all day and write something. But I write when I get in a zone more than writing because Ive got to do this. I represent the artists that keep it true to what really is, to be able to make rappers want to write." "I want to show the streets that Im back and that Im true to the game. Musically, I want to show that Im still out here doing my thing. After all the people that were out when I was out years ago fell off, Im still out here competing with the shorties. I also want to gain platinum success. Its something that I havent done."

Chart success

The first single "Slow Jamz" featured Kanye West, an associate of Jay-Z, and Jamie Foxx. It topped the Billboard Hot 100 and world r&b charts in early 2004. Kamikaze built on the success of "Slow Jamz" to reach the top of the Billboard 200 album charts on release in January 2004 and to go platinum by March 2004. The second single "Overnight Celebrity" has also reached top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 and world r&b chart in March 2004.
