Track of the Track: CURREN$Y - Push Round Lite Weight

CURREN$Y - Push Round Lite Weight

CURREN$Y shrouds us in smokey electric guitar grooves and fluid lyrics in this spacey slow grooving track, 'Push Round Lite Weight'. Crips snare hits dance between soft kicks and high pitched synth chord progressions . His affinity for cars, weed and women is certainly no surprise, yet his delivery and undeniably smooth flow make this track catchy and easy on the ears, especially during those traffic laden rides to work. So light up, turn the treble down and bump this jam to your hearts content!As one Hip Hop's rising starts in the new millenium, CURREN$Y established himself early on by signing to Master P's label No Limit Records and joining the 504 Boyz to release 'Ballers' which broke into the top 50 in the US Billboard charts. As the young rapper began to make a name for himself others started taking notice and in 2004 he signed with Lil' Wayne's Young Money Entertainment and Cash Money Records host to some of Rap's biggest names; Drake, Tyga, and Nicki Minaj. With 7 full length studio albums (including the release of Pilot Talk III this year) as well as a host of collaborations, CURREN$Y work is a staple in any DJs Hip-Hop collection. While he's not among the greats and often vanishes from the mainstream fold for long periods of time, his undeniably consistency and lengthy dedication to each project prove his worth among influencers and taste makers.Indulge in his sounds:June 2, 2012 was a sad day for Crooks & Castles crew as they lost a massive member of their family Christopher 'Lewd' Natalio to a heart attack.
