Curren$y Pinned Letter to Son Now has A Video

Celebs

In what can be called a letter to his son, Curren$y has just released the video to track “Gold and Chrome,” from his latest EP The Out Runners.

As Spitta reflexes over mellow sound with a sample from the likes of The Sentiments’ “She Won’t Be Gone Long,” the question is how did we get here? As the world has literally shut down due to the pandemic of COVID-19.

The lyrics drive home the fear of the unknown, as we still don’t understand who has it, how they got it, and did the give it to me? The hope is that this will all be over in time for his son Cruz to turn corner just like his pops.

The video was shot and edited by Yuset Pozo, we see Curren$y and Cruz washing and playing with their many toys outside their home. As while as old footage of Curren$y from his “Jet Life Chronicles” series on the official Jetlife YouTube account.

I’m sure with the craziness the world in right now every parent is thinking of the safety of their child. This is Spitta putting this thought into song form. He also touch on how his lost one of his friends due to the virus and how the NBA has isolated themselves in a bubble to continue their season.

The main strength of this 24-minute EP is how it never overstays its welcome and keeps things moving with nine total songs that al breeze by. Once again Curren$y showcases that relentless and tireless work ethic he’s become synonymous with. Odds are Spitta will have another tape out before you know it. As he said before “…every month drop something…”

Think of me as the sonic doctor prescribing music as medicine to help you heal.”
