Cathedral
Producer: Chase N. Cashe
Released: August 5th, 2015
Essential Listening: “In The Night” feat. Raheem Devaugn
Seemingly out of nowhere on an August summer day, Curren$y announced a collab tape between him and New Orleans’ own Chase N. Cashe, and shortly after that our ears were blessed with the tape. Curren$y plays to his strengths on here, creating a mellow vibe with the producer, something Chase is been known for. The theme throughout the tape is money, and on the track “Gold” the beat actually has sounds that come from playing the slots at the casino.
There’s only two features that come on the opening and closing of the EP. Raheem Devaughn lends his voice on the hook of “In The Night” and steals the show, while Curren$y opens up with some of his most player lines, “Dime a dozen/Seen ’em coming/Walk em’ down my driveway in the morning/I ain’t really want ‘em/Just be fucking on ‘em/Passing time/Because the bank don’t open until 9.” Bars like that are scattered throughout the tape with the lovely backdrops that Chase provides.
