About Kazik Staszewski Kazik Staszewski (born March 12, 1963) is a Polish lead singer, songwriter, and leader of the band Kult. Kazik founded Kult in 1982. Their latest album is 2005's Poligono Industrial. In 1991, he launched a solo career as Kazik with what may be the first Polish rap album "Spalam się" ("I'm burning"). Kazik's latest album is Los się musi odmienić ("Fate Must Change"), released in 2005.Kazik is an immensely popular and somewhat controversial artist thanks to his famous criticism of politics — Poland's politics in particular. His songs often comment on daily life, whether that life be of a typical man, a Pole, or the artist. Hits such as "Polska" ("Poland"), "Hej, czy nie wiecie" ("Hey, don't you know"), "Wódka" ("Vodka"), etc. deal with life in Poland, its government and issues. Another notable song, titled "100 milionów" (or "100 million") was a critical take on Lech Wałęsa's election promises, and was publicly commented by Lech Wałęsa himself. What is distinctive of Kazik's lyrics is that they typically contain a lot of references to pop culture, high culture, current events; as well as self-references (inside jokes, such as quotes or allusions to his earlier works), often cryptically conveyed and sometimes seemingly random.
