I never thought I would become a Curren$y fan let alone compile a best of mixtape and spend an hour of my time concocting the artwork you see below. I still remember people posting his studio sessions years ago where the sound quality was horrendous and former boss Lil Wayne wasn’t too far behind shrieking over a minimalist beat. Now, after leaving No Limit then Cash Money and then Young Money, he has been getting better and stronger (I guess record labels do stifle artist’s ability to put out music). I put this together because after asking a couple of friends if they got the Smokee Robinson Mixtape, they replied, “My internet is down but I wouldn’t have downloaded it anyway”, I decided to package something for the nonbelievers. This mixtape marks his growth plus something to expect from him as he continues to partner with Dame Dash and Ski Beatz. His next album, Pilot Talk, will be fire and this mixtape will serve as the justification for Hip-Hop historians who ponder, "how did he get this raw?"
