(Interview) Curren$y Talks “The Stoned Immaculate,” Wiz Khalifa, Dame Dash, & Warner Music + More | Complex 

On Signing To Warner Music

So it’s been like almost a year since you signed to Warner Music. How do you feel about the decision a year later?

I feel like it was right. When I wake up and just think about what’s going on, and how easy it is to make some shit happen, it was the right decision as opposed to what I was doing.

So it’s about security?

Yeah, honestly, man, independently you can hustle and hold yourself down. But when you talking about how you wanna start a label and all your homies are stupid nice and you got to do shit, you got to have an allegiance somewhere or alliance or something to facilitate that shit. By me working at Warner and being able to garner all this extra attention, it’s gonna be dispersed amongst everybody who fuck with me too. So it’s all good.

Expectations for Stoned Immaculate

Do you feel like this record is gonna reach more people?

Yes, mainly because I reached out and did more things than I usually do.

What made you do that? What was the thought process?

Me knowing I have my own company. I got Jet Life, so I got to set up other people’s lanes, you know? And I can’t close doors for them just because I want to hustle with myself. I got a lot of friends in the industry and I figured it’s time for me to cash in on them friendships too.

And to open the lanes for my friends, because my homeboys are gonna need production from Daz, they’re gonna want verses from people as they’re working on their projects. So it’s good to open up now and hustle with everybody.

You put out a lot of music. When people talk about you, that’s one of the things that always comes up—your output. Do you spend much time thinking about what you’ve done in the past?

No, I don’t know nothing about it after I did it. I don’t listen to none of my songs so I’m not aware of what I did—like, at all. Kinda crazy.

I get tweets like that every day. “I apologize bro, I slept on you for like fucking 5 years, I didn’t know.” But it's all good. You’re never late. It’s alright. So it’s like the Independent Film Channel cause if you just get into it, you gonna find something you fuck with, and it’s gonna make you bring other people in.

Do you and Wiz have any plans?

Yeah we got all kinds of shit. That’s my brother man. We got a ton of shit nobody knows about and we’re gonna keep it like that till we get hot enough to put it out.

We definitely got some joints though, so it’s all good. And we’re here so much, like when we do kick it we just talk about the shit we hear about us not being cool.

(Article) " Curren$y Credits Dame Dash For Schooling Him, "I Soaked It All Up" "

"During an interview with MTV News last week, the New Orleans MC admitted that he has learned a lot working with Dash, as well as other notable CEOs he was once signed to like Master P and Birdman. "You run the list, I've picked up game from all of them, man, Master P, Baby. Me and [Lil] Wayne made hours and hours and hours and hours' worth of music in the studio, Dame," Curren$y told MTV News on March 21. "I been around some people, made moves and soaked it all up." Even though the union is now marred in negativity, Curren$y contends that it was a learning experience. "With my last situation, I think I've learned more about the business," he said, referencing Dame's DD172. "I've learned more about the business through that prior situation." (MTV) "

(Video) Curren$y Interview (Spitta Explains "Covert Coup" ..."..so I had to get mainstream and knock the other mainstreams suckas off that I don’t like who fu*ked the game up" , His "Jet Life Recordings" Company, Dame Dash Ski Beatz + More)

"Curren$y: I got 2 new ones; and the one that’s dropping first is called Covert Coupe. That’s all produced by Alchemist. Covert Coupe is on the play for the words ‘cougar tops’, you know what I’m saying, and overdrawing whatever facet is in power. The people who live in certain remedies get upset with the government and whatever facet is in power, and they fu*king REVOLT, and then they become their own government. So in a sense, that’s what I did with this, in pushing people to become independent to better the environment for people like me, as far as underground rappers are concerned. So that’s why I named it Covert Coupe because it’s an underground rise and take of the system that was already in power; so I had to get mainstream and knock the other mainstreams suckas off that I don’t like who fu*ked the game up.

MTD: What’s up with DD172/Dame Dash?

Curren$y: Yea on the Muscle Car Chronicles, that’s the thing we’re trying to tie together. We’re just trying to find the right date to put it out; you know with all these projects I got going, and the relationship with Warner, and my Jet Life Recordings company, I’m just trying to make sure everything has enough time to run and stretch its legs out.

Regarding Dame,...."
