Curren$y Cherry Picks His Big Catalogue In His Tiny Desk Live performance

I don’t know when you’ve observed but, however it’s April 20, and I’m positive you know what meaning (though what with the conventional festivities endorsed for this unofficial vacation, you’d be forgiven for not understanding what day it’s anymore). So it’s solely proper that for this week’s Tiny Desk Live performance debut, NPR has tapped considered one of hip-hop’s patron saints of the satan’s lettuce, Curren$y, who stops by for an at-home set from a storage alongside considered one of his many, many vehicles (this one’s a lifted 1965 Chevy Impala).

In fact, with a lot music in his rearview — over seventy tasks and counting — the New Orleans native has loads of product to tug from, opening the set with “Sixty-Seven Turbo Jet” from 2012’s Cigarette Boats with Harry Fraud. Then, it’s “Tackle” and “Breakfast” from 2010’s Pilot Discuss, “Airborne Aquarium” from Pilot Discuss II, and eventually, “Mary” from 2013’s New Jet Metropolis. It’s form of mind-boggling to assume he might have finished a ninety-minute set with out crossing 2015.

Early within the set, he teases his band for not having their very own 4/20-inspired merchandise on them, though he permits that every one three members of the trio want each arms to maintain the music going.
