Their music is characterized by a willingness to break taboos and a penchant for theatrical live performances, where they frequently engage with the audience in unexpected ways. Over the years, K.I.Z has carved out a unique space in the German music industry with a loyal fan base, and their legacy is marked by an array of albums and singles that leave a lasting impact, particularly in the German hip-hop scene. Songs like "Frieden" and "Görlitzer Park" exemplify their dedication to addressing contemporary issues, while also entertaining and sparking dialogue among their listeners.
