3005766, Curren$y & Harry Fraud - The Marina EP Posted by wrecknoble, Thu May-31-18 02:07 PM
Curren$y and Harry Fraud are an incredible combination and I'm glad they made a follow up to the Cigarette Boats EP
I'm really feeling the production and Spitta's flows on this joint. the guest verses are all pretty fire too.
What are your thoughts?
tracklist: 01. Radar Tower 02. 14 Packs (feat. Smoke DZA) 03. The Visitor 04. On The Water (feat. Street Wiz) 05. Modena Moves (feat. French Montana) 06. Scarab 38 (feat. Action Bronson) 07. Sundown In Eleuthera 08. The Count (feat. Wiz Khalifa)

3005772, Dope. I feel like it's actually been a while since the last Curren$y project Posted by mrhood75, Thu May-31-18 03:38 PM
And by a "while," I mean three months, which is a while for him. Especially after a relatively inactive 2017.

3005779, Cool, this might be the project that gets me back into Curren$y Posted by DJR, Thu May-31-18 05:06 PM
I never stopped liking him, I just couldn’t keep up and gave up. But I LOVED Cigarette Boats. Recently a song from that played when I had my phone on shuffle in the car, and I was blown away all over again.

3005786, The first cigarette boats is a classic Posted by ry 213, Thu May-31-18 07:57 PM
Spittas flow is so on point on that project and the beats are next level. It was a nice surprise when it dropped too, because he put out Stoned Immaculate earlier in the week (which was disappointing) and CB dropped a few days later.
This new one is really good but I don’t think it can compare to the original.
|
3005787, I went to the store and bought The Stoned Immaculate on day 1 Posted by DJR, Thu May-31-18 08:18 PM
Bought Big KRIT’s album that day too. Possibly the last time I ever drove to the store and bought CD’s on release day.
I actually liked Stoned Immaculate quite a bit, but yeah on Cigarette Boats they were jboth ust in a zone.

3005814, same, I support Spitta projects Posted by wrecknoble, Fri Jun-01-18 10:19 AM
bc he gives us SO much for free, how can I not?
I had to get The Stoned Immaculate since it was his first major label release and he deserved that kind of support from his core fans

3006179, Good for Lupe. Curren$y can't rap very well, though. It's true. Posted by Orbit_Established, Sun Jun-10-18 09:39 PM

3006184, Depends on the standards....generally makes good music though Posted by DJR, Sun Jun-10-18 09:49 PM
Next to the top tier Black Thought, Phonte, Lupe, Royce types, he’s not on that level.
He’s got his lane though. And he’s made some really enjoyable albums/mixtapes.

3006191, Oh, of course. He made GREAT music. He's done, though. Posted by Orbit_Established, Mon Jun-11-18 12:39 AM

That's the thing about being a good lyricist: you can always have a second wind or a new great project because ultimately you'll always have the CHANCE to say some new shit in a cool new way. If you catch a new producer or new wave, you good.
This is why Black Thought is having the best individual run of his career despite being at the game for 20 years. He can rap.
Jay-Z makes mostly awful albums now but he'll always get a spin because ultimately Jay can rap.
Curren$y is entirely style and mood. He is not a very good rapper. And the when the act wears thin, he's sorta done.
