Spin: Curren$y – Weekend At Burnie’s

2 comments

Another few months, another awesome Curren$y release. It’s hard to really declare one of these tapes better than another, it’s all up to the listener I think, but Weekend At Burnie’s, in terms of listenability and consistency, is probably dude’s best release since the first Pilot Talk. That was like, his formal introduction to the rap world, and he’s since developed his persona further and what you get is not a “weed rapper,” but a guy who doesn’t have to thug it out or anything anymore and is happy about that fact. For me, the line that really unpacked Curren$y before was this one from “Audio Dope II”: “Fat macks skimming’ off the top, but that’s the game we in/What you gonna do about is huh?” That wasn’t stoner apathy, it was like, a worldly wise understanding that shit just doesn’t always work out in your favor. The “but I’d rather kill a bassline” line on “This Is The Life” is a similarly subtle mission statement to just drop all this thug shit. Read the review, which is shorter than the junk I said above, here.
