If Currensy fans want to ride the "real hip hop" lane you gotta show me lyrics. The nikka says a whole lot of nothing. He has no punchlines, no metaphors, no story telling. It sounds like he smokes weed all day. His songs are all melancholy and lazy. Some of it is smooth and jazzy and I dig it but at this point in your career you're not gonna get better. I didn't listen every Currensy song. He's doesn't warrant that much attention

catch a crook in ya neck
From trying to watch the jets


holdin it down like balloon strings

Story telling...Chandelier

Pay homage, the founder in the house kid
A MILF hunter, ask your momma she could vouch bytch
If she cool to fukk and down with rolling that barney up
Race-day money on the starting gate pony up

One of the dopest, I'm schedule one
You just ibuprofen,what is you smoking?

Write that sickness my ink pen sneezing
Yancey Thigpen can't catch me sleeping

fukk around get popped like a collar


I mean it's alright if you don't like Spitta but do your research.

How did he get Mass Appeal?
Birth right. Grinding. Talent.

He's a bridge for a lot of different cultures. Like suburbia and urban life. nikkas and women. It's part of the reason why he's so huge.

White people fukk with Drake heavy as hell just like black people

His music is almost identity-less which is why he's able to garner support from all areas

His music though, is average.
His bars too.

Simple enough to understand, clever enough so you can't put him with the flatout garbage rappers.

Average though.

Why though? He's making great music. I mean in hindsight leaving YM was great. They're career killers over there. Who else besides Drake y Nicki really popped?
What kids of Bush really ran for president besides George W and Jeb? Lol.
Nikkaz are stupid. Currensy is not making great music.

You're mistaken if you really don't think he has great projects. I thank God everyday that he didnt pull a Wiz and sellout on some bullshyt . Currensy has a great catalog B.

You can minimize him all you want. As an old head I can tell you you're gonna be on the wrong side of history. When you're in the middle of biggie and pac you can't appreciate until later. Actually, 2pac was hated. Fake ice cube, hypocrite, fake thug. It was a long list.
Please don't act like being mixed and Jewish from Canada is a formula for success nikka. Stop the hate. That boy is self made. 100%.

Currensy is good. No doubt. He's just not great. Why do people say 'projects " now? What the fukk is a project? Let's talk albums. He has no classic songs, no classic albums. No classic verses

I'm not that invested. I just know how to tell hype from good music. I never said he was trash, I just don't consider him an elite artist outside of his success in the mainstream. Im not minimizing him.

And in his case. It was. First Project in 06. Second Project in 07. Third Mixtape Project has album features and the biggest rapper in the world at that point, with a cosign by him. And by early 2010 hes the biggest rapper in the game. Plus funded all of his studio time with child actor money.

That's not really what I would call self made. Got the push from Lil Wayne, and a push from the industry as a whole, and here he is.

I look at him more as a brand than an artist now. He still makes good songs every now and then though.
