Denzel Curry - KING OF THE MISCHIEVOUS SOUTH (2024)
"King of the Mischievous South" marks a triumphant return to Denzel Curry’s roots, revisiting the Southern rap influences that shaped his early career. The album features high-energy production that blends trap, punk rap, and Miami bass, creating a raw and gritty soundscape. Tracks like "Still in the Paint" and "Zeltron 2099" highlight Curry’s aggressive flow and knack for storytelling, while collaborations with A$AP Ferg and Ski Mask the Slump God add an exciting dynamic. The project has been praised for its nostalgic yet modern take on Southern hip hop, though some critics feel it plays it safe in terms of innovation. Nevertheless, it showcases Curry’s growth and his ability to honor his legacy while refining his signature sound.
