On 5 June 2020, for the first time in more than a dozen years, Kazik's solo album titled "Zaraza" was released. "Zaraza". Its musical announcement - the song "Your pain is better than mine" - shocked Poles and became almost symbolic.
The album features 15 premiere compositions, including the track 'Your pain is better than mine', which received almost 8 million views on YouTube within days of its release and received a gigantic response from the media and listeners.
On the album, Kazik returns to commenting on political and social reality in his characteristic style. Expressive, slightly ironic and exceptionally topical lyrics - Staszewski's trademark - take on particular significance in the context of the epidemiological situation, and Wojtek Jabłoński's interesting arrangements add to the unusual character.
The KAZIK project performs as follows:
Kazimierz Staszewski - vocals, Wojciech Jabłoński - guitar, Konrad Wantrych - keyboards,
Roman Batyra - bass guitar, Olek Orłowski - drums
