However, some time in 2013, Raider Klan disbanded and Curry saw fit to pursue a solo career. He released his debut album, <strong>Nostalgia 64<\/strong> on September 3, 2013. Prior to the release of <strong>Imperial<\/strong>, Denzel also dropped a double EP, titled \u201c<strong>32 Zel\/Planet Shrooms<\/strong>\u201d. Imperial was released on March 9, 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Track List : <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>ULT <\/li><li>Gook <\/li><li>Sick &amp; Tired <\/li><li>Knotty Head <\/li><li>Me Now <\/li><li>Story: No Title <\/li><li>This Life <\/li><li>Zenith <\/li><li>Good Night <\/li><li>If Tomorrow\u2019s Not Here<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imperial is a relatively short album, with only 10 tracks and a runtime of 40 minutes. There\u2019s not a lot of latitude or wriggle room and Denzel makes full use of the space he has. Most of the songs on Imperial are explosive, head-bashing and Denzel just sounds murderous. The intro track, \u201cULT\u201d has this foreboding synth bass near the beginning and some mystical, watery keys laced throughout the track. This track is impressive in that it has not only quality rapping and quality production but also a quality hook. Lyrically, Denzel is just a monster on this instrumental, touching on various topics such as police brutality, racism and his feud with his former mentor, SpaceGhostPurrp. All of the lyrical content on this song ties into the theme of being U.L.T, which according to Denzel, stands for multiple different meanings; Utilizing Limitless Talent, Understanding Life\u2019s Teaching, Ultimately Liberating Together and Unity, Love and Trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/minutenmusik.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Denzel-Curry-Tour-Deutschland-2019-.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The song \u201cGook\u201d is also equally as hard-hitting. On this track, Denzel raps about how he is a gook, a Miami slang which means \u201can odd person who does not fit in with a crowd\u201d. And he makes good on that statement, Denzel drops some bars about drug use, how the passing of <strong>A$AP<\/strong> <strong>Yams<\/strong> relates to drug use and then some witty references to anime characters. Lyrically and flow-wise, Denzel still sounds as mean as he did on the track prior. \u201cSick &amp; Tired\u201d tells a chilling story of a man robbing someone from both people\u2019s perspectives. \u201cKnotty Head\u201d with <strong>Rick Ross<\/strong> doesn\u2019t break any new ground lyrically but the track is still worth listening even if just for Denzel\u2019s sheer energy and Rick Ross\u2019 cold-blooded guest verse. And the track features a quirky beat switch at the last minute of the track, which ended up being one of the most memorable things about the song. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fifth song, \u201cMe Now\u201d takes a somber turn lyrically and sonically. In comparison to the first few tracks, the song is mellower and more poignant. The lyrics on the song cover themes such as depression and self-doubt with a lot of references to the Holy Bible and Christianity. The song \u201cThis Life\u201d is easily one of the most underrated Denzel Curry songs to date. It has a great melodic flow and hook, a fantastic trap beat and a unique subject matter too. Denzel gives some intimate verses about his journey to stardom and how he and his love interest have changed personally during the process of it all. \u201cZenith\u201d featuring <strong>Joey Bada$$<\/strong> has a spacey, atmospheric instrumental and both Denzel and Joey drop a verse each about success, or being on the zenith like how the track states. The track \u201cGood Night\u201d is probably the only weak moment in the album. While it is not a bad track per se, the tone and the vibe of the song is weirdly happy and uplifting in an otherwise, dark and bleak album. The closer track \u201cIf Tomorrow\u2019s Not Here\u201d has a brilliant forlorn, laid-back, guitar instrumental and Denzel\u2019s performance is great. His singing can be said to be a little underwhelming but his detailed, despondent verse about someone making some sort of final confessions, about his fears and guilt more than make up for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imperial is one of, if not the best rap album of 2016. This album is a prime example of the importance of a tight track list. The high-octane bangers make up the majority of the album and the mellifluous, more subdued tracks that give the album the much-needed breathing space come up exactly where they should. Imperial is by no means an obscure record but in comparison to some of Denzel\u2019s most popular releases like <strong>TA13OO<\/strong> or <strong>UNLOCKED<\/strong>, it tends to get often overlooked and I wish to have reminded you why you shouldn\u2019t with this review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rating: A+<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imperial contains songs written by Denzel Curry, Budd Dwyer, Finatik, Freebase, Joey Bada$$, Lino Martinez, Nick Le\u00f3n, Promnite, Rick Ross, Ronny J, Steve Lacy, Twelve&#8217;len and Zac and production by Budd Dwyer, FnZ, Freebase, Nick Le\u00f3n, Promnite, Ronny J &amp; Steve Lacy.
