It’s not every day a musical genius is born. On July 14, 2009, KRIZZ KALIKO will release his second solo CD, GENIUS,. Along for KRIZZ KALIKO’s aurally eclectic rollercoaster ride are E-40, Kutt Calhoun, Big Scoob and, Strange’s flagship artist, Tech N9ne. Powered by a fusion of funk, rap, rock, R&B and opera – a self-made style KRIZZ KALIKO calls “Funkra” – GENIUS covers the entire spectrum of genres, from the slow and seductive “Get Off” with Tech N9ne and the rock-flavored “The Chemical” to the street anthem “Back Pack” and the album’s crossover single, “Misunderstood.”
Join Krizz Kaliko as he headlines his first mini tour this February, hitting a select few states on a few select dates. Krizz is already well known to Strange fans from his legendary energetic performances with Tech N9ne. Now's your chance to catch Strange Music's resident Genius as the headliner on his own stage! Joining Krizz on stage will be Irv Da Phenom (Tech N9ne's "Hunterish") for a show that promises to be nothing short of unique. These early shows are bound to mark the beginning of a whole new era in Strange tours. Say you were there at the beginning...all over again! Get your tickets today!

THE MAKING OF "MISUNDERSTOOD"
Krizz Kaliko Featured in INK Magazine!
Krizz Kaliko planned to kill his future wife and himself.
His tortured life had unmercifully reached a breaking point when Crystal Matthews, then 19, walked away from their three-year relationship.
The skin disease vitiligo had scarred his face, hands and upper body with blotches of pink skin since he was 2 years old and did even worse damage to his self-esteem. A criminal stepfather, neighborhood bullies and look-at-the-monster stares from confused adults and children inflicted physical and mental pain.
Cancer took his father when Krizz was 15. In the same year, his sister lay in a coma following a car accident.
