Smoker-in-crime Curren$y just dropped his major-label album debut, The Stoned Immaculate. Spitta’s always been a bit of an oddball, weed-lovin’ witty MC, caught in-between underground and mainstream. Since Pilot Talk(s) generated a big buzz back in ’10, Curren$y’s been building on his momentum, releasing a steady flow of free projects and touring all over the world. . The Stoned Immaculate, filled with star-power guests, is likely to propel Spitta into major-league territory. The overriding question is then: Has the music suffered any backlash from big-budget grinding?
Luckily no. The Stoned Immaculate captures the magic of the #JetLife-style featuring Curren$y’s flow fully intact, only a bit more ambitious. You get the feeling of an artist at his current peak in complete sync with what’s going on around him. Then again, who wouldn’t mind to get a lead-single produced by legendary Bink!, have a chorus sung by Pharrell, relive the essence of Watch the Throne with Wiz Khalifa or trade verses with West Coast frontrunner Daz Dillinger? Just saying!
