Only the best of the best get that rating. Something has to be on a different level. Amazing doesn’t mean 10/10, super creative and mind blowing doesn’t mean 10/10. 10/10 is an accolade saved for the most special of albums. The albums that blow your mind but stick with you. The albums that you can’t stop thinking about for years. The albums that change your perspective on music and life. That’s a 10.

Denzel should be so damn proud of himself for this album. Amazing, amazing stuff

[@KendegohLucavi]

Denzel is so passionate about his work and you can tell everybody in the industry respects that by the way his collaborations happen. Started listening during Imperial and its been impressive seeing his art evolve

[@eternalyt5175]

Such a vibe. Listened on release and used to bump it everyday in 2022.

[@Call_Me_Rio]

I still do

[@IdkWhoPixelIs]

11:11 it was at this moment that Denzel Curry dropped the mask the reveal he was Fantano the entire time

[@phillyboywonder]

Zel really is a black super saiyan with bars

[@MrWatchAndwatch]

Knew Zel was a great dude from his appearances on Kennybeats' streams and this interview just reinstates how much of a gem he really is. Protect him and his music at all cost

[@enjoisk8a911]

I love Denzel's evolution as an artist and person. I loved the aggressive early stuff, but now i also love the more methodical calmer stuff. The common thing is Denzel speaking his truth and his experiences. Dope

[@puperman4208]

"you have all this success, but can't enjoy it because you're depressed." that's the most depressing thing I've ever heard.

[@JordanNMusic]

I just found out he’s bringing AG Club to perform w/him on tour on the West Coast. So full circle 1) I’m a fan of both 2) AG is from my hometown. To see them perform w/Zel on the road is so ill. Happy for them. S/o Zel

[@FallingOutTheSky]

Denzel is one of the most well spoken artists and helps you understand what he is going/gone through. Definitely one of my favorite interviews with one of my favorite artists

[@Zaoja]

we love you Denzel your not alone in your struggles brother thank you for sharing real life meanings and traumas with us, takes a lot of strength and growth.

[@shamanic_nostalgia]

this album is dope. welcome to the era of psychedelic rap. Denzel is officially leading the way. Thank you for all the realness and honesty and vulnerability you put into this project. It really is a huge step in the right direction for the genre.

[@capro9627]

defo agree with the fact that it's a step in the right direction for the genre but Denzel is defo not the first to get on this psych-rap wave look at Rocky and Travis back in 2015. Love

[@royalwarlord2342]

@@capro9627 youre right but hes innovating the sound to make it more chill then in your face

[@mayitakeyourhatsir8632]

53:36 I'd be really interested to hear Denzel talk about what he considers the "Filler" tracks on his previous albums

[@wasistdustin]

Denzel is truly an inspiring Artist. It really comes through on the album, how thoughtful and philosophical he has become, this interview underlines this change in personality or maybe more change in focus completely. I love the Album, love the Interview!

[@ayceeonethirty6141]

What he saying at like 15:40 is so true. Saw him in Charlotte on the 1yr date of X passing and it was like a spiritual experience for the whole crowd. I think I even remember Zel saying something like "I can tell alot of yall here needed tonight" when he finished playing Look At Me at the end.

[@benmarsico9403]

Truly loved watching this through and through. Proud of you guys and absolutely happy that Denzel made it here, genuinely. Album is a work of art.

[@ihate_5x108]

Wasn’t a huge fan of the album first listen because of its contrast to past Denzel curry albums, but it gets better with each listen. Great project

[@mfbobyle6771]

I met Curry about 5 years ago before a show and he was the nicest artist I’ve ever met. I wasn’t even aware of him at the time I was just seeing a show but he made me a life long fan just with his personality. He’s one of the best doing it right now.

[@deletingyoutube2306]

Dang, I wish God blessed me like that 💀

[@mfbobyle6771]

@@deletingyoutube2306 ya I was immensely lucky

[@4_free73]

I want to be friends with Denzel. He’s funny as fuck, but also he’s highly philosophical and very thoughtful in everything he does- just hearing the metaphor of “melt my eyes” tells me the dude is constantly deep in thought. He seems like the type of guy I could talk to for hours on end.

[@ACWall985]

he is very funny n cool to be around, i got to hang out with him surprisingly after a show during the tour and he had me cracking up n he even put me on sum old school shit before my time. made me wish we hung out more

[@dayday1178]

We need more poetic rappers like Denzel curry to give out this type of knowledge like Tupac did and with what he’s talking about is facts our music now is so influenced into mainstream media and hiding what no one is talking about in todays agenda so big props to DENZEL CURRY for this amazing piece of work

Denzel did a meet and greet at Boston Calling a few years ago, nicest celebrity I’ve ever met! So sweet

[@crabbuckets7506]

What a lovely conversation. Love you both ✌

[@christiansmith6451]

Denzel curry has always been one of my favorite rappers. I find his ability to speak his mind but also produce lyrical masterpiece is absolutely brilliant. The mindset he has that makes him want to be different from the crowd lets him experiment with some outlandish ideas such as the collaborative album with Kenny Beats and Ta13oo. As I continue to listen to his full discography I find such versatility in his work and I am able to see how big of an influence he has on the underground and mainstream rap/hip-hop industry.

[@SamHoyekGuitar]

“Including zatoichi, which you didn’t like” lol I wonder what he was gonna ask

[@AncientGamer100]

The fact denzels hoodie is his friends EP to give it a shout out man. This guy is a legend. Also the album is before the night is over by anonymuz

[@PAULY_49]

THIS WAS UNEXPECTED HOLY FUCK AND CONGRATULATIONS NATE

[@chrisc1915]

watching him change and grow throughout different albums is so beautiful

[@3aglewastaken]

I been loving this album recently, I haven’t listened to Denzel rlly besides taboo but after this album I’m prolly gonna check out the rest of his stuff

[@user-fs1lc2cj5s]

he’s never missed, I even loved Unlocked 1.5 which was just remixes. Go listen to everything including his EPs you will be sooo happy you did

[@joel_vibert]

Taboo, unlocked and imperial are my personal favourites from him

[@theflamebringer]

check out that blood in blood out mix he dropped a while back, all throwaways but they're still really good

[@A.P.L.O.]

This was a dope look into Denzel love fantano interviews keep ‘em up !

[@dextrose4422]

wow, this was such a beautiful interview...listened to it here at work and it was so relatable on so many level...thank you to both Denzel and Fantano for blessing us with some wise concepts and topics to reflect on to be better people...wow...ya'll be well!
