Mozzart is the debut studio album by Kosovo-Albanian rapper Mozzik. It was released for digital download and streaming on 30 July 2020 by 2 Euro Gang and Urban. The record premiered following Mozzik's widespread attention and chart success in German-speaking territories. For the record, the rapper collaborated with multiple producers, including Macloud, Miksu, Pllumb, Rzon, Xon Oxa, Kitza and X-plosive. Containing songs in Albanian and German, the album was aided by the release of seven singles, including "Dhelpër dinake", "Zemra ime", "Auf wiedersehen", "Tom & Jerry", "Lass mal", "Madonna" and "Baby". Most songs incorporate genres of hip hop and R&B. Upon release, Mozzart peaked at number 11 in Switzerland and reached number 75 in Austria.

Background and composition[edit]

After signing contract with On Records, Mozzik rose to widespread attention in the Albanian-speaking Balkans.[1] Since 2018, he has drawn recognition in German-speaking territories, following the releases of "Bonnie & Clyde" and "Romeo & Juliet" both in collaboration with Swiss rapper Loredana.[2][3] Mozzart was released for digital download and streaming in various countries on 31 July 2020 by 2 Euro Gang and Urban, a subsidiary of Universal.[4] Most of the songs on the album are in Albanian,[4][5] with some songs performed by Mozzik in German.[6][7] Some of the songs on the record incorporates genres of hip hop and R&B music.[8][9] The rapper collaborated with multiple producers on the album, including Abaz, A-Boom, Kitza, Macloud, Miksu, Pllumb, Rzon, Xon Oxa and X-plosive.[10]

In May 2020, Mozzik hinted at the release of the album during a poll on his Instagram account, where he encouraged his followers to vote for the album's title.[11] On another occasion, the rapper uploaded the album's tracklist on the platform, with the song's titles being overpainted.[11] He wrote underneath the post that as soon as it receives 100,000 comments, with the hashtag #2Euro, he would subsequently release the song's titles.[11] In June 2020, after this was achieved, the rapper premiered the album's tracklist and announced its release date.[12]

Singles and reception[edit]

Seven singles preceded Mozzart in the span from November 2019 to July 2020. "Dhelpër dinake" was the first single released on 8 November 2019, where it reached number 16 in Switzerland.[13][14] The record's second single, "Zemra ime", followed on 13 December 2019, and attained the top 15 in Albania as well as the top 100 in Switzerland.[15][16][17] On 14 February 2020, "Auf wiedersehen" and "Tom & Jerry" were both distributed at once as the record's third and fourth singles.[18][19] "Auf wiedersehen" experienced commercial success in German-speaking Europe, reaching number six in both Austria and Switzerland, and number 11 in Germany.[20][21][22] Released on 7 May 2020,[23] the record's fifth single, "Lass mal", failed to reach the same success, although it attained the top 40 in the aforementioned territories.[24][25][26] The subsequent sixth and seventh singles, "Madonna" and "Baby", premiered on 26 June 2020 and 16 July 2020, respectively.[27][28] "Madonna" topped the chart in Albania and peaked within the top 40 in Switzerland,[29][30] while "Baby" entered the ranking in the latter country and in Germany, where it peaked at number 78.[31][32]

Reception[edit]

Kreizia Velija from Top Albania Radio expressed praise towards "Madonna" and saw "Hana" as the highlight song on the album.[33] Telegrafi considered "Madonna" a success and predicted "Baby" to be another success.[9] Multiple Albanian and German-language websites interpreted the lyrics of "Auf wiedersehen",[34] "Dhelpër dinake"[35] and "Lass mal"[36] as a reproach against his failed relationships and marriage to Swiss rapper Loredana.[37] In Austria, Mozzart entered the country's album chart in August 2020 at number 75, which remained its peak position.[38] In Switzerland, the album debuted and peaked at number 11 in the same month, spending a total of two non-consecutive weeks on the chart.[39]
