Denzel Curry - Zuu

ZUU is the fourth studio album by American rapper Denzel Curry, originally released in May 2019 via Lorna Vista.

This is ZUU. It is rooted in the stories, sounds and culture of South Florida, more so than any of his previous projects. With the elevated songwriting and production, ZUU will reset expectations for what Denzel can achieve and will cement Denzel’s status as one of the most versatile, dynamic and important artists of his generation.

Denzel Curry said that while his previous album Ta13oo (2018) was rooted in darker themes, ZUU came from homesickness for Miami. He explained: "it goes from the sounds of where I grew up, to what I was raised around, to the people I was raised around, to the sounds that pretty much shaped the person I am…”.

ZUU was met with widespread critical acclaim. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 85, based on eight reviews.

Kyann-Sian Williams of NME wrote, "The 24-year-old Floridian rapper combines dreamy, ethereal beats with hard-hitting sounds and rhymes to relay his unique – and compelling – life story".

This album is an Australian exclusive limited edition reissue on translucent orange coloured vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve, pressed in New Zealand via Lorna Vista.
