Curren$y - The Stoned Immaculate (Official Review)

         Curren$y released his fifth studio project, The Stoned Immaculate. This is the first album since he went to Warner. The New Orleans MC really went in on this one. The album offers the guaranteed great tunes from Spitta, as well as some great features. The instrumentals are all great, the flows are dope, and the song structures are magnificent. As usual, Curren$y delivers some real hip-hop, and sticks to his music ethic. Some weed rap, and some real lyrics. That's all a great album from Curren$y needs, and he indeed delivers yet again.

          Compared to Pilot Talk 1 and 2, this album is just as good. The amount of buzz that Curren$y has now, doesn't even compare to the amount he had back then. Now, he is able to get features from artists like Pharrell, 2 Chainz, Daz, Marsha Ambrosius, and Estelle. Though Wiz Khalifa has some cameos, Wale is on the intro, and Curren$y gets Big K.R.I.T. on a dope spot, he has always worked with these artists. The music he makes with these artists is guaranteed to be great. Curren$y gives his friends Young Roddy, Trademark, and Cornerboy P some dope guest spots as well. The features are definitely the best out of any Curren$y album since PT1.
           The instrumentals on this album are also just as good as those of his debut LP Pilot Talk 1. Curren$y has a real gift for choosing dope instrumentation. The Jetlife general really shows off that talent off with this album. The best beats on the project are "Privacy Glass," "No Squares," "Showroom," and "Chandler," just to name a few. The whole album's production is wonderful though.
           The features are on this project are very intricate. As stated earlier, Pharrell, Daz, 2 Chainz, Marsha Ambrosius, and Estelle all are artists Curren$y never had on projects before. They all kill their features, and make it a great sound all the way through. Then, there's artists like Wale, Wiz Khalifa, K.R.I.T, as well as Cornerboy P, and Trademark & Roddy who have worked with Spitta on many occasions. The best feature track is probably the street single "Jet Life" with Big K.R.I.T., and Wiz Khalifa. The overall feel of the track is marvelous. Something to note is the fact that Curren$y started (Wale) and ended (Wiz & K.R.I.T) his album with features for the first time. definitely a great move from Spitta.
          To Summarize, Curren$y once again delivers a phenomenal album. He seems to never fail, and keeps the listener wanting more. His use of metaphors, beats, lyrics, and friends helps make this album a possible classic LP. The features were excellent, the beats were diverse, and the overall music is spectacular. This could be tied with Pilot Talk 1 in my opinion for Curren$y's best album. We just have to wait and see how it sounds in two years.

Overall Grade: 9/10


Reasoning: Hip-hop delivered. Great music, great beats, great lyrics, and great features.
