After announcing the details of his forthcoming project, King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 2, and releasing the first single Hot One earlier this month, Denzel Curry returns with Black Flag Freestyle, which features rising Texas star That Mexican OT. The song gets its title from its origin as Denzel recorded his freestyle late one night while partying with friends in an Australian studio and wrapped a black bandana over the mic while recording. The Houston-inspired instrumental produced by 187 Ricky & Payday feels like a perfect fit for Bay City native, That Mexican OT. A day before the song was officially released, Curry and OT debuted it with a From The Block performance live from Houston at the legendary Screwed Up Records & Tapes store founded by the late DJ Screw. Continuing his global takeover, Black Flag Freestyle premiered on the UK’s Radio 1 New Music Show as Jack Saunders’ Hottest Record alongside an interview with Denzel in the studio.
King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 2 finds Curry presenting a sequel to the project – and revisiting the sound – that helped launch his career. While the first installment of King Of The Mischievous South was performed from the perspective of his Raven Miyagi persona, a name bestowed upon him by Raider Klan founder SpaceGhostPurrp, Volume 2 finds Curry operating under his Big Ultra persona – an elevated version of Raven Miyagi that is braggadocious and revels in the success that Curry has seen over the last decade of his career.
