Twista - Kamikaze

About Kamikaze by Twista Album

Kamikaze is the fourth studio album by American rapper Twista. It was released on January 27, 2004, by Atlantic Records. The album reached the top of the US Billboard 200 chart in early 2004, after the success of its lead single, "Slow Jamz". It sold 312,000 units in its first week of sales, and received generally positive reviews from critics. It is Twista's most successful album, being certified Platinum by the RIAA. 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 I’ve 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 I'm back and that I'm true to the game. Musically, I want to show that I'm still out here doing my thing. After all the people that were out when I was out years ago fell off, I’m still out here competing with the shorties. I also want to gain platinum success. It's something that I haven't done." The song "Sunshine" contains the backing track from Lovely Day by Bill Withers. The song "Overnight Celebrity" contains a sample of the Lenny Williams' 1978 song "Cause I Love You". The first single "Slow Jamz" featured Kanye West 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" had also reached top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and world R&B chart in March 2004. The single "So Sexy" with R. Kelly reached #25 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming a success.

- Twista became a "Overnight Celebrity"

Twista has not had any big hits since 2004's jam packed Kamikaze, but still he's awesome. Kamikaze is true to the rap game. As Twista says "I don't make music for the hell of it" and he proves that! Kamikaze will go down as one of the best albums in rap history ever. From the slow and heavy beat on "Overnight Celebrity" to the slow beat on the Kanye West produced "Slow Jamz" this album is a must add to your collection!

- Best instrumentals

Some of the best instrumentals in hip hop keep it up twista

- What has happened to a lot of the hip-hop around now???

I'm not tryin to hate on today's newer artists but seriously I don't find it anywere near as good as hip-hop from the 90's and early 2000's... I don't know if it's because I grew up listening to hip-hop artists from this time period or what but twista in my opinion is truly a prime example of real hip-hop the way it is meant to be!

- The best stuff ever

It doesnt matter what rapper comes out twista and his fast fire filled rhymes will always come out above so bring it on wangstas

- Twista

Twista is the fastest rapper alive, no one raps as fluent as he does. He eats lyrics for breakfast. 5 stars, best twista album out.

- ?????

Great album but not edited version BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Kamikaze Wiki

Kamikaze (神風, pronounced [kamiꜜkaze]; 'divine wind' or 'spirit wind'), officially Shinpū Tokubetsu Kōgekitai (神風特別攻撃隊, 'Divine Wind Special Attack Unit'), were a part of the Japanese Special Attack Units of military aviators who flew suicide attacks for the Empire of Japan against Allied naval vessels in the closing stages of the Pacific campaign of World War II, intending to destroy warships more effectively than with conventional air attacks. About 3,800 kamikaze pilots died during the war, and more than 7,000 naval personnel were killed by kamikaze attacks. Kamikaze aircraft were pilot-guided explosive missiles, purpose-built or converted from conventional aircraft. Pilots would attempt to crash their aircraft into enemy ships in what was called a "body attack" (tai-atari) in aircraft loaded with bombs, torpedoes, and/or other explosives. About 19% of kamikaze attacks were successful. The Japanese considered the goal of damaging or sinking large numbers of Allied ships to be a just reason for suicide attacks; kamikaze was more accurate than conventional attacks, and often caused more damage. Some kamikazes were still able to hit their targets even after their aircraft had been crippled. The attacks began in October 1944, at a time when the war was looking increasingly bleak for the Japanese. They had lost several important battles, many of their best pilots had been killed, their aircraft were becoming outdated, and they had lost command of the air. Japan was losing pilots faster than it could train their replacements, and the nation's industrial capacity was diminishing relative to that of the Allies. These factors, along with Japan's unwillingness to surrender, led to the use of kamikaze tactics as Allied forces advanced towards the Japanese home islands. The tradition of death instead of defeat, capture, and shame was deeply entrenched in Japanese military culture; one of the primary values in the samurai life and the Bushido code was loyalty and honor until death. In addition to kamikazes, the Japanese military also used or made plans for non-aerial Japanese Special Attack Units, including those involving Kairyu (submarines), Kaiten (human torpedoes), Shinyo speedboats, and Fukuryu divers.
