NYC Hip Hop mainstay Kurious has shared today the second track off his forthcoming album Majician, titled “Untainted”. The song and album were executive produced by his longtime friend and collaborator MF DOOM before his passing and produced by Mono En Stereo.

With its throwback beat and Kurious’ steady, driving lyrics, he explains the meaning behind the titled, saying, “That’s a term DOOM used to use a lot. If you play him something that’s tainted, or something is wrong with it, and I don’t know if you’ve ever seen him listening to shit he dont’ like, it literally hurts him, it’s like a migraine. He’s such a genius, and he’s hearing all kinds of shit…he’ll squint his eyes that certain way, or put his hands on his temple, and be like, “yo, don’t play me that….”.

Kurious Announces MF DOOM-Executive Produced Album, Shares “Unknown Species”

Kurious, the uncommonly gifted rapper from New York City’s Upper West Side, has announced today his newest album, Majician, the nickname his peers blessed him with a generation ago. Due out October 18th on Metalface Records and Rhymesayers Entertainment, the LP, which was executive produced by his longtime friend and collaborator MF DOOM before his passing and produced by Mono En Stereo, is a mesmerizing blend of technical wizardry and personal introspection that substantiates the legacy he’s long deserved. 

In 2016, Kurious flew down to Grenada and it was there that he played DOOM “Unknown Species,” the urgent track that now serves as the opening salvo on Majician. Over more trips to Grenada and eventually the United Kingdom, the LP took shape, two kindred spirits chipping away at a block of marble together. “I don’t have another creative partner in life,” Kurious says. “He’s that for me.” So it’s only natural that this project, the last document of their remarkable chemistry, would find a home with Metalface Records. Pre-order vinyl, CDs and cassettes via gasdrawls.com and rhymesayers.com, as well as additional exclusive merchandise.
