Remedium Explained
Remedium (Polish remedy) is the third studio album by Polish rapper Tau, released on 3 December 2014 by his own label Bozon Records.[1] It was his first album released after changing his stage name from Medium to Tau. The album features guest appearances by Kali, Bezczel, Buka, Paluch, Zeus, the singer Agnieszka Musiał and rapper Lecrae.[2] At first, rapper stated there was going to be guest appearances by KęKę and Peja, although their contribution was canceled by Tau himself.[3]
Remedium was promoted with four singles: "Logo Land", released on 24 September 2014, "List motywacyjny" with featured appearance by Paluch, which was released on 28 October 2014, "BHO" recorded along with Bezczel and "Remedium", which was shared on Tau's page on 2 October 2014.[4] [5] For all of those tracks there were videos made. In contradistinction to previous Tau's projects, on which he was in charge of the entire production, Remedium was produced by several producers, such as Zdolny, Chris Carson and Gawvi.
The album debuted at number 4 on the Polish OLiS chart, having sold over fifteen thousand copies within several months.[6] [7]
