Curren$y and Harry Fraud are nearly 15 years into working together, and for their ninth joint project, their chemistry is as strong as it’s ever been. “Once you heard this bassline, you knew this beat was mine,” the former says on the hook of “The Telethon,” and that’s exactly how the pair sounds together: Spitta is delivering confidently unbothered boasts of the good life with his signature New Orleans drawl, while Harry Fraud continues to serve up the hazy, atmospheric soundbeds that have made them so reliable for smoker soundtracks. “Kamikaze Drive” has Spitta rebounding from the murder of his friend by finding joy in his son’s first steps, “Night Vision” reunites him with Jet Life comrade Wiz Khalifa, and “Sound of the Rain” finds him and Jazzy waxing poetic over Fraud’s expertly looped guitar.
