Ułamek tarcia (IPA pronunciation: [uˈvãmɛkˈtarʨ̑a], English: A Fraction of Friction) is the fourth studio album by Polish hip-hop group Kaliber 44, released on February 13, 2016 on Mystic Production. It is the first album after a sixteen-year hiatus that the group took due to the Joka's move to United States.
It was entirely produced by Abradab and features several guest appearances by Rahim, Grubson and Gutek. The album was supported by two promotional singles: "Nieodwracalne zmiany" released on January 2, 2016 and "(Why Is It) Fresh" released on February 12, 2016. The third song "Razowy" featuring a singer Gutek was aired on February 11, 2016 on Polskie Radio Program III.
The album debuted at number 1 on OLiS having sold a few thousand hand-signed copies within a week and the pre-order period, and on March 23, 2016 Ułamek tarcia was certified as Gold Record by Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry having sold over 15,000 copies.
In 2013, DJ Feel-X posted a several pictures of him and other member of Kaliber 44. When fans started asking question, whether or not, the group had reunited, Abradab announced that they would give a performance during Open'er Festival 2013. A few days before the show an interview with DJ Feel-X was printed in Newsweek Polska. In the interview he said, "I have unused beats that I have been stashing away specially for Kaliber, but I do not want to release anything old. We're starting from the scratch. I am going to send Dab 50 new beats and I will ask him in three months how many lyrics he has already written to it." In the same interview it was said that the album would be titled 4:44, yet it turned out to be only a working title. On July 5, 2013, the same day their performance took place, a video of a new album announcement saw the light of the day.
