Denzel Curry shares lead single off upcoming album, “Walkin,’” announces tour

Denzel Curry recently announced his new album, Melt My Eyez See Your Future, which will feature T-Pain, 6LACK, Rico Nasty, JID, slowthai, Kenny Beats, Thundercat, Robert Glasper, Karriem Riggins, JPEGMAFIA, Boi-1da, Cardo, Powers Pleasant, Buzzy Lee, and more. Now he's released its lead single, "Walkin'," and spoke more about the album via press release:

I like traditional hip-hop, I like drum and bass, I like trap, I like poetry, so a lot of that is going to be interwoven in this album, including jazz and a lot of genres that I came up on as a kid and just being in my parents’ house. This album is made up of everything that I couldn’t give you on TA13OO or Imperial because I was going through depression anger issues.

"Walkin'" marries chilled-out, soulful production to rapidfire tongue-twisters from Denzel, and you can definitely feel the traditional hip hop influence coming through on this one. It's a promising first taste; check out the Adrian Villagomez-directed video below.

Denzel also announced a lengthy tour surrounding his appearances at Coachella and Bonnaroo. All dates are listed below (no NYC show at the moment).

Melt My Eyez See Your Future is due this year via Loma Vista, exactly release date TBA.
