DENZEL CURRY – IMPERIAL Vinyl LP Online

Imperial was both his finest work to date and his best received. The brief, breathless album showcases his near-peerless technical skill along with a newfound maturity in his songwriting. I was going through a dark time, Curry says now of the time that birthed Imperial. So he challenged himself to find a radical level of transparency. The whole theme of that tape is just being honest–exposing myself before anybody else does, talking about my past, talking about where I m heading to.
