Denzel Curry Recruits Ronny J, PlayThatBoiZay, And Chief Pound For ‘Woo’
Ronny is the artist responsible for producing a number of Curry’s breakout records.
Denzel Curry continues his run of collaborative singles with the release of new single “WOO,” which finds him reuniting with Ronny J.
Ronny is the artist responsible for producing a number of Curry’s breakout records including 2013’s “Threatz” from Curry’s debut project Nostalgic 64 and 2015’s “Ultimate” from his 32 Zel/Planet Shrooms double EP, in addition to many others. Together the two pioneered the sound that became synonymous with 2010’s South Florida rap—a sound that ultimately helped defined the broader wave that was coined “Soundcloud rap.”
Now, on the heels of Curry’s recent singles with Juicy J, Kenny Mason and ICECOLDBISHOP, he once again collaborates with Ronny J on a new single that finds Curry revisiting his sonic roots with the peak lyrical dexterity that he has developed over the course of multiple show-stopping, concept-driven albums released over the past five years.
Denzel highlighted the importance of the reunion, sharing: “The ‘WOO’ session was good considering this is the first session Ronny J and I have done in years. We brought in Chief Pound, who’s been an essential part of ULT from its conception and having PlayThatBoiZay on the record really shows the unity in Carol City.”
Last month, Curry shared a new single “SKED,” featuring rising Atlanta artist Kenny Mason. The single arrived on the heels of Curry performing four sold out shows at the iconic Blue Note Jazz Club in New York City (at which Kenny Mason made a surprise appearance at one of the shows to perform “SKED”).
Back in July, Curry shared more new singles, his July track “BLOOD ON MY NIKEZ” with Juicy J and its companion “ICE COLD ZEL FREESTYLE” with ICECOLDBISHOP.
These songs mark the beginning of a new chapter in Denzel Curry’s musical journey, one in which he is embracing spontaneity by sharing his music as it is being created, rather than holding onto songs until they released later as part of a larger conceptual body of work as he has done throughout the bulk of his career to date.
