While many have seen rapper Denzel Curry’s episode on producer Kenny Beats’ The Cave, the two have only released one track officially together. That track being Guapdad 4000’s “Izayah” that also featured KEY! and Maxo Kream, as well as production from James Delgado. Now they’ve joined forces for an entire project titled UNLOCKED. According to Vinyl Me, Please., the project was recorded in a twenty-four-hour period. Fans were given less than a twenty-four-hour notice that the project would be released. The warning of the project’s release came in the form of an animated film that featured the entire project.

Going with the theme of Denzel and Kenny being inside of a computer and looking for files, the album titles on the project reflect file names, rough names, and unnamed tracks. There are eight new tracks on UNLOCKED and they add up to only 17 minutes in length. Two tracks on the listing are basically instrumental with sampled vocals over them, but the other five tracks are Denzel Curry doing his thing and continuing to evolve. This was a great surprise, especially since Denzel faked some beef on Twitter with Kenny ahead of the release of the film. Since the project is less than 20 minutes, it leaves me wanting more, even though this will be in my rotation for a long time. Maybe we’ll see an official release of 13LOOD 1N + 13LOOD OUT MIXX from the beginning on January.
