ABOUT DENZEL CURRY:
The last few years have been a dizzying assent for Denzel Curry. After establishing himself as one of the leaders of rap's new underground through early full-lengths like 2013's Nostalgic 64 and 2016's Imperial, the latter of which saw the Carol City, Florida native cosigned by Rick Ross and earn him a spot on XXL's coveted Freshman list, Curry spent the last six years releasing four concept-driven full-length albums that catapulted him from cult icon to one of the most celebrated names in rap. From the innovative, 3-part release strategy of 2018's TA1300, which highlighted Curry's preternatural gift for melody in standout track "CLOUT COBAIN", to the diaristic 2019 album ZUU where he detailed parts of life previously untold in a song like "RICKY", and 2020's full-length collaboration UNLOCKED with super producer Kenny Beats, Curry released a trip of critically acclaimed albums that established him as one of the most vital voices in rap. With 2022's Melt My Eyez See Your Future, Curry demonstrated his ability to synthesise the lyrical prowess for which he's become known with the kind of ear worm choruses of pop in songs like "Walkin" and "X-Wing".
Most recently, Zel released his new album King of the Mischievous South Vol. 2, the official sequel to the project - and revisiting the sound - that helped launch his career. While the project that features highlights like "HOT ONE" and "ULTRA SHXT" marks a return to his roots, it also signals the arrival of a new era in Denzel's career that sees him standing as a peer alongside the biggest names in the genre after more than a decade of critically acclaimed releases. Known for his visceral live shows - both on stage and screen - whether it's The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Coachella, NPR's Tiny Desk Concert, sold-out arena shows or an On The Radar cypher; Denzel is an imitable performer that continues to leave his mark on the music.
