Crazy Noise is the 1989 debut album by New Haven, Connecticut rapper and producer Stezo. After being a dancer for hip-hop group EPMD, Stezo signed a solo record deal with Sleeping Bag Records and recorded this debut album. It features two charting singles: "Freak the Funk" and "It's My Turn". "It's My Turn" was the first recorded sample of the drum break in the Skull Snaps song "It's a New Day". This break would become one of the most commonly sampled drum breaks for hip-hop music in the 1990s.
