Today, Denzel Curry announced that his TA13OO follow-up ZUU will hit the streets next week on May 31. To celebrate the revelation, the rapper dropped his latest single "SPEEDBOAT," a track that will be featured on his forthcoming record. Curry has also given us the Zev Deans-directed visual for "SPEEDBOAT," a song described as seeing "Denzel meditating on the consequences of living the fast life, masterfully bouncing between melodic moments and combative bars as he refuses to fall victim to the violence that plagued his childhood in Miami."

It's been ten months since Curry dropped TA13OO, the breakout album that showcased the rapper's artistry and lyricism. He'll be hitting the road throughout Summer 2019 beginning next week when heads out with Billie Eilish until July 13. After that North American tour, Curry will storm festival stages including Lollapalooza, Osheaga and Outside Lands in August. He'll then join the $uicideBoy$ on another North American tour run beginning July 27 in San Diego and concluding August 23 in Los Angeles.

Quotable Lyrics

Gas all in my brain it's fumigating my thoughts
Thinking 'bout intricate plots to get out the 'hood
That's when I started to jot, not
Givin' a opportunity to let the devil ruin me, no
