Prozzäk was a pop music side project by two members of the Canadian band The Philosopher Kings, James McCollum and Jason Levine, conceived as a lighthearted mockery of their own romantic troubles. They created the characters of Simon, who sang in a mock-British accent about his failed romances, and Milo, who was his best friend and mentor in his search for true love; they starred together in a number of popular animated music videos.
When the animated band Prozzäk arrived on the scene in 1998, a Canadian musical phenomenon was born. Comprised of the cartoon duo Simon and Milo, their debut album Hotshow, full of infectious dance/pop tunes, followed Simon’s constant and largely unsuccessful search for love. It was a commercial and critical blockbuster going four times platinum, producing five chart-topping videos (including two number ones for “Sucks To Be You” and “Strange Disease”), three top twenty radio hits and five Juno award nominations.
Prozzäk was created by Jay Levine and James Bryan McCollum, two members of the critically acclaimed multi-platinum act The Philosopher Kings. Since then the pair have gone on to become successful musician/songwriter/producers working with Nelly Furtado, Jacksoul and Divine Brown, amongst others. Through their production company, Left Hook Entertainment, Jay and James helped launch the career of pop/rock diva Fefe Dobson by co-writing and producing her platinum debut album.

I found out about this band about a week ago and I love these guys! They remind me of Helen Love, a similar vibe to my ears. To my mind the only difference is they are male, versus Helen Love (of course).

After listening to their material, I would definitely rank the albums Hot Show > Cruel Cruel World > Saturday People. In Saturday People, as fun as the album was, it just feels too kid-friendly. The thing about 'Hot Show' was that it had very mature themes. It just felt like they went too much in trying to pull the kiddie crowd. It was a fun ride, Prozzak. Thank you for everything.
