Curry’s high energy vocals and intense delivery are mixed with lush, dark production. His unique style has created a cult following across the world, with dedicated fans stretching far and wide, eager to be immersed in his elusive world.
Curry has been consistently releasing music since 2011, and after Curry’s sleeper hit, ‘Ultimate’, went viral, the single drew him a new legion of fans and has since been certified gold in the U.S.
An EP Curry released before 2016’s ‘Imperial’ album featured Rick Ross, Joey Badass and Steve Lacy, while Curry has gone on to work with JME, AJ Tracey, A$AP Ferg.
His last album, ‘TA13OO’ (pronounced ‘Taboo’), was critically acclaimed by media and fans alike and featured guest appearances from Billie Eilish, Goldlink and J.I.D.
The album was Curry’s first to reach the Billboard 200 and charted in the UK, Australia and Canada. Curry capped off the album with a winter tour that featured a stop at Manchester’s Rebellion in December 2018.
