Covert Coup

Curren$y

Gritty, noir-inflected boom bap loops paired with a hypnotic, deadpan delivery. A cinematic 27-minute masterclass in hazy atmosphere and luxury street rap.

It's like a 1970s heist movie soundtrack if the getaway driver was a professional stoner.

A cold, calculated confidence wrapped in a hazy, late-night fog.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The hypnotic, repetitive piano loop on 'Scottie Pippen' that provides a cold floor for Freddie Gibbs' double-time verse.
The eerie, siren-like synth whine that floats over the boom-bap drums on 'Ventilation'.
The way 'BBS' opens the record with a muffled, underwater sample that slowly snaps into a crisp, dusty drum break.
