Denzel Curry Continues Hot Streak Of Bangers With “WOO” Featuring PlayThatBoiZay And Chief Pound

by

Carol City, Florida rapper and writer Denzel Curry is back with another hard-hitting single. This head-bashing and trunk-knocking track features two other Florida natives. PlayThatBoiZay and Chief Pound bring uncontrollable energy to create “WOO.” This is the fourth offering for Denzel’s upcoming album. However, we have no information on the release date or name of the project yet.

Genius does have a possible title for it, 13LOOD 1N + 13LOOD OUT RELOADED, but it does not seem to be confirmed yet. What has been interesting about these releases from Denzel is that they have been turned into two-packs. The first solo single we heard from this year was “BLOOD ON MY NIKEZ” with Juicy J. That became combined with another track “ICE COLD ZEL FREESTYLE,” featuring ICECOLDBISHOP.

Listen To “WOO” From Denzel Curry, PlayThatBoiZay, And Chief Pound

The same thing happens with “WOO.” Before this came out, we heard Curry team up with Kenny Mason on “SKED.” Now, this is a two-pack with these two tracks put together. With all of these recent releases, it seems Zel is turning back to the more aggressive and trap-like sounds we came accustomed to older listens. Imperial, ZUU, and 32 Zel are some examples of this. Hopefully, we get to hear that type of album again soon, because “WOO” is another fun track.

What are your initial thoughts on Denzel Curry’s brand new song with PlayThatBoiZay and Cheif Pound, “WOO?” Is this the best track out of the three singles that have come out? When do you think Denzel’s album will be coming out? We want to hear what you have to say about all of this.

Quotable Lyrics:

Okay, who let this f****r in the front door?
Steppin’ with much effort, who you think I’m finna stunt though?
Nobody bite me, back on the side of the scene it get ugly
Homie gon’ say that s*** gracefully, don’t play with me
He comin’ at you like Chucky
Stayed in the cut like Cudi, ain’t your friend, lil’ buddy

Denzel Curry And Kenny Mason Aren’t ‘Sked’ On Their New Collab

by

Denzel Curry continues to come through with the heat. Today (September 15), Curry has dropped his new single, — a collab with Kenny Mason called “Sked.”

The song’s title is a pronunciation of the word “scared,” and Curry makes it known that he’s not afraid of any opps. But rather, they’re the ones who should be on alert.

“I said what I said, b*tch, you sked, b*tch, you sked / I don’t go to sleep without a Glock by my bed / I don’t say no names ’cause them boys might be the feds / I’m about my family, God, business and my bread / And I said what I said, b*tch, you sked, b*tch, you sked,” raps Curry on his verse.

Mason then pops in, reiterating the message, making it known that he’s not here for any funny business.

“Gimme the loot, shoot, bullets at enemy troops / I got more arms than a centipede but he still’ll get beat like he sendin’ me loops,” raps Mason.

In the song’s accompanying video, Curry becomes a work of art through colorful animations. The video is about a minute shorter than the actual song, and Mason and his verse are absent from the video.

Earthgang Attends Their Own Funeral In Their ‘Die Today’ Video And Denzel Curry Does The Eulogy

by

Earthgang‘s new song, “Die Today,” offers a scathing look at the ephemeral nature of fake love, so it’s only right that their video similarly lampoons the way rappers often become much more famous after they die. With hilarious bookends featuring a dazed Denzel Curry delivering an unhinged eulogy and an equally funny plot twist toward the end, the video is stuffed with clips from real-life news shows — from Fox News to SNL‘s Weekend Updates — with their deaths as the lead graphic.

There’s also some funny and insightful stuff about the performative nature of social media, as the news sends the Atlanta duo’s follower count skyrocketing and attracts messages from the likes of former President Obama, Elon Musk, Kris Jenner, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. This is all especially funny when you consider that Earthgang only has one Billboard Hot 100 charting single (with J. Cole and JID, no less), and has yet to crack the top 40 on the Billboard 200 (their first album, Mirrorland, landed at No. 40, while their last album, Ghetto Gods, came in at No. 114).

But as Vince Staples once pointed out, there is no better album promo than death, and Earthgang’s new video allows them to enjoy its spoils without experiencing its obvious drawbacks. “Die Today” will appear on Earthgang’s upcoming album Earthgang Vs. The Algorithm, alongside the Adam Sandler-approved “Bobby Boucher.” The album is due soon via Dreamville.

Watch the “Die Today” video above.

Denzel Curry Blows Off Steam In His 99-Second Blitz Of A Single, ‘Ice Cold Zel Freestyle’ Featuring IceColdBishop

by

Heads are still spinning from Denzel Curry’s “Blood On My Nikez,” his single that began as a two-minute solo flex before receiving a Juicy J feature for the full version last week. Curry just increased the spin rate with “Ice Cold Zel Freestyle” featuring IceColdBishop.

The Florida-bred rapper only needs 99 seconds to confidently illustrate a visceral picture, juxtaposing his tangible rewards (“I got a motherf*ckin’ choppa like Olajuwon”) with the dire realities he had to overcome (“I was like six in the kitchen / My uncle and cousin was mixin’, they servin’ up rock”). Curry and IceColdBishop swap bars atop an unrelenting beat — seamlessly complementing each other’s stream of consciousness.

Curry teased “Ice Cold Zel Freestyle” with a Ken-like photo (nobody is immune to the Barbie craze), and the single arrives as he appears to be leading up to the release of Blood In Blood Out Reloaded (stylized as 13LOOD 1N 13LOOD OUT RELOADED), which he vaguely tweeted about in April.

Curry last dropped Melt My Eyez See Your Future in March and doubled down on the album’s success with a two-disc Melt My Eyez See Your Future: The Extended Edition release last fall. Between then and now, Curry also assisted Armani White’s “Goated” and teamed with Midwxst for “Tally” in January.

The single marks Denzel’s first original release of 2023, following his successful Live At Electric Lady EP in May. With “BLOOD ON MY NIKEZ,” Denzel takes a nostalgic journey back to his roots, reminiscent of his fan-favorite projects like Nostalgic 64 and Imperial, while skillfully blending in the pop sensibilities he has developed over his career.

Denzel Curry’s unique blend of styles and thoughtful concepts has earned him critical acclaim, making “BLOOD ON MY NIKEZ” a highly anticipated addition to his discography. Fans can enjoy the single now and eagerly await more exciting music from Denzel in the future.

Denzel Curry Performs While He Gets Dental Work Done On “The Eric Andre Show”

by

Denzel Curry is doing some very interesting promo. Known as one of hip-hop’s most unique voices, he continues to push boundaries with his latest offering. Earlier this month, Curry released the Live At Electric Lady EP. It is recording of a live performance at the iconic New York studio established by Jimi Hendrix. The EP showcases cuts from his previous album. However, they are accompanied by a soulful jazz band that adds a new dimension to the tracks. Tracks like “Lonely Man,” “Troubles,” and the hit single “Walkin” highlight the electric, jazzy, and soulful elements. All of these things come together to make for a captivating listening experience.

Most notably, the EP includes a reimagined version of “Troubles” featuring T-Pain. On it, Denzel Curry adds a fresh verse to the upbeat track infused with soulful instrumentation and impressive bars. Additionally, Denzel delivers an amazing cover of Erykah Badu’s timeless classic “Didn’t Cha Know,” featuring Bilal. Now, Curry has stopped by The Eric Andre Show for some promotion, and it went just about as you might expect.

Denzel Curry Deals With The Madness Of Eric Andre

Earlier today, Denzel Curry posted a clip of his appearance on The Eric Andre Show. Andre is known for his zany antics and almost nonsensical, absurd form of comedy. It appears that Curry’s guest spot on the show will be no different. In the clip, which is linked above, the rapper tries to perform while having dental work done. Eric Andre watches on as he does so. Eventually, he asks Denzel Curry if he would like to ear some curry. Of course, he doesn’t really wait for an answer. He simply walks over and puts some in the rapper’s mouth.

Fans took to the comment section of the Instagram post to joke about the appearance. “Man here getting tortured ,” one said, followed by some laughing emojis. “Look at this man go, what can’t he do?” said another comment. It’s true that getting dental work done while eating curry and rapping at the same time must be pretty difficult. Other fans seemed very excited about Denzel Curry working with Eric Andre. “The best collab since peanut butter and jelly,” one said. One thing is for certain, the segment will be extremely entertaining. What do you think of the clip? Let us know in the comment section!
