Review

"King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 2" by Denzel Curry is like a wild street mural, blending the essence of Southern hip-hop with horrorcore vibes. Dropping in 2024, this album is the follow-up to his 2012 mixtape "King of the Mischievous South, Vol. 1" and amplifies the gritty swagger of the original with refined, contemporary production. Curry seamlessly layers lush samples over modern beats, creating a dark, nighttime city vibe, especially in tracks like "Cole Pimp" and "Wishlist."

The album’s versatility shines through bombastic tracks like "Ultra Shxt" and "Hot One," which pull cues from Memphis legend Tommy Wright III, featuring fierce guest spots from A$AP Ferg and TiaCorine. You can feel Curry’s darker artistic streak in "Sked" and "Hit the Floor," echoing early Tyler the Creator’s raw edge with a menacing gangster rap flair. The finale, "Hoodlumz," is a chaotic display of lyrical prowess with Denzel, PlayThatBoyZay, and A$AP Rocky trading bars amidst a storm of gunshot samples.

Curry masterfully crafts fleeting, intense character sketches across the album, channeling the imagery of gangsters, pimps, and warlocks navigating shadowy realms. There’s a playful undertone, even in the darkness, as he uses horrorcore to spin engaging narratives. Though it might not hit as hard as some of his other works, "King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 2" stands as a vibrant testament to Curry's skill in mixing diverse styles, resulting in an energetic collage of street tales and braggadocio. - Raven
