Integration

Integration \In`te*gra"tion\ ([i^]n`t[-e]*gr[=a]"sh[u^]n), n.

  1. The act or process of making whole or entire.

  2. (Math.) The operation of finding the primitive function which has a given function for its differential coefficient. See Integral.

    Note: The symbol of integration is [integral2l] (standing for the Latin summa sum), and the integral is also regarded as the limiting value of the sum of great numbers of differentials, when the magnitude of the differentials decreases, and their number increases indefinitely. See Limit, n. When the summation is made between specified values of the variable, the result is a definite integral, and those values of the variable are the limits of the integral. When the summation is made successively for two or more variables, the result is a multiple integral.

  3. In the theory of evolution: The process by which the manifold is compacted into the relatively simple and permanent. It is supposed to alternate with differentiation as an agent in development.

Integration is the third studio album by American rapper Kellee Maize. It was released on November 11, 2011 and was recorded primarily in her home studio aka Nakturnal Studio. Its musical styles range from Reggae to Dubstep to Electro Pop. The content of the LP explores the idea of having a good balance between the dualities in human nature (i.e., Good & Evil). The album received positive reviews and launched her to:

- 2 million+ YouTube views

- 70,000+ Twitter and Facebook fans

- 200+ media mentions

- 400K+ free album downloads

- #1 on Amazon.com and #1 on Frostwire.com

Integration was downloaded over 160,000 within its first month of release. One reviewer at Frostclick said, “Although the album is more personal and infused with the artist’s spiritual perspective, it doesn't alienate listeners at all. Kellee manages to not only put her best foot forward but blinds and impresses as she does.”

The first single, “Hasta Abajo,” peaked at #7 on Jamendo.

Maize performed multiple tracks from the LP at the album’s release party in Pittsburgh at a local middle eastern inspired performance venue.
