Denzel Curry releases new visual for "Walkin"

Denzel Curry will be releasing his new album Melt My Eyez See Your Future later this year.

On Wednesday, January 5th, Denzel announced a new trailer for the album that was released that same day.

This short clip features calming guitar strums alongside more beautiful instrumentation as the clip goes on. Denzel is in the western-themed video walking through a hilly desert. He can be seen where attire that’s very fitting of this old-west aesthetic and a cool new hairstyle. It’ll be exciting to see how it all plays into this new album and its insightful title. Check out the full trailer below:

Features On Denzel’s New Album

Even though we still don’t have an official release date yet, it’s still exciting knowing that Denzel Curry will be releasing his new album Melt My Eyez See Your Future this year. The trailer above does at least reveal what features and collaborations we can expect from the Florida rapper’s upcoming release. At the end of the clip, we can see all the names listed in the end credits.

Notable artists include T-Pain, Thundercat, Rico Nasty, 6LACK, J.I.D., slowthai, Robert Glasper, Kenny Beats & JPEGMAFIA. Many of these artists are people he’s worked with on music in the past, but names like T-Pain and Thundercat stand out & should be interesting features for the album.

Expectations For Melt My Eyez See Your Future

First, I think I speak for many when I say that this does have the potential to be his best album to date. Additionally, there will probably be a lot of topics discussed and updates on his life since the pandemic started shortly after his last release. Denzel is an amazing lyricist & has a great ear for beats, but I’m mainly focused on what subjects will appear on Melt My Eyez See Your Future. The title itself sounds pretty deep and can be interpreted in many ways. Also, the trailer’s mysterious western aesthetic raises a lot of questions itself too.

Isaiah Rashad Releases ‘From The Garden’ Music Video Ft Lil Uzi Vert

Isaiah Rashad and Lil Uzi Vert just released the music video for their latest collaboration from Rashad’s album, The House Is Burning. This is his first release in five years. The single “From The Garden” featuring Lil Uzi. Since it is his first album since 2016’s, The Sun’s Tirade, many consider The House Is Burning is a comeback for the rapper.

The Video

The colorful video shows Isaiah Rashad and Lil Uzi as they stroll through a bustling town late at night. Multiple Isaiahs can be seen walking down the street as people stand in nightclub lines. Police cars patrol the area. Lil Uzi Vert later enters the fray on a four-wheeler for his verse. However it is the music that will make this one a hit.

The Rhymes

The song opens with which opens with an old school sample of horns before launching into a pumping, thrusting beat. Rashad’s flow in “From The Garden’s” is perfectly metered and his provocative rhyme and cadence just behind the beat are just sick! “Came out bussin’, came out puffin’, came out f*ckin’ on your cousin/ I do all these floozies worser than they daddy, but you love her,” Rashad raps in his verse. He deconstructed the song’s origins during a recent interview with Nadeska Alexis for Apple Music.

“From the Garden is the first song I made off the whole album. It had a totally different beat at first and we switched it up ’cause we had what they call demo-itus, so you kinda wanna hear something different.”

Working with Lil Uzi Vert

When asked if he imagined Lil Uzi Vert on the track from the start, he said, “No, not at all. But when we switched the beat I was like, ‘We need something else. This sound’s kinda out of my element”.”

Isaiah Rashad’s debut album, The House Is Burning, entered the Billboard 200 at #7, with nearly 41,000 total album/equivalent units sold. SZA, 6LACK, Smino, and Kenny Beats were among the album’s many high-profile contributors.

Denzel Curry Drops New Protest Song "Live From The Abyss"

South Florida-based rapper Denzel Curry is back with a new single entitled “Live From The Abyss”. The politically-charged anthem was released exclusively on Bandcamp, with net proceeds being donated to Dream Defenders.

Of the new song, Curry writes, “voter suppression has been a ploy of amerikka for a long time. They were more bold in the past but they found new quiet ways to disenfranchise us. As they attempt to revert back to these tactics just know panic and terror didn’t work on us in 1939 and it won’t work on us today. Native* American land. Black slavery. Chinese mining. Latino labor. My brothers and sisters have overcome substantial amounts of injustice to achieve equal opportunity. Equality doesn’t come with a limit and no amount of your PRIDE can instill fear in my heart. This has been a Black Man Broadcast Live From The Abyss.”

It has been a busy year for Curry, who recently dropped the critically-acclaimed collaborative album UNLOCKED with Kenny Beats. He has also been featured on recent singles by YUNGBLUD, Guapdad 4000, and JPEGMAFIA. “Live From The Abyss” marks the latest in a series of protest songs from Curry, following “Pig Feet” and “Sirens”.
