After a solid run of singles and guest appearances, Stones Throw affiliate and Oxnard representative Kazi finally comes through with his debut full-length, joining forces with European label B9000. Produced primarily by Oh No (Kankick contributes one joint), The Plague overflows with swiftly paced wordplay and thumping, stoner friendly beats. “Check It Out Remix” is a highlight, with its backwards loops, clapping drums, ample tambourine shakes, and strong Wildchild cameo.
