Smoke DZA Park Bench Blues ft Curren$y mp3 Download – Despite releasing a solid 8-track project back in October titled 10,000 HRS, this New York rapper had plenty more hours to put in this year. Smoke DZA has returned with a new single “Park Bench Blues” featuring New Orleans’ Curren$y. The two are frequent collaborators; the last track they gave us was “Wish Upon A Star” off of 10,000 HRS. On this new song, both rappers ride over an aloof flute sample topped with hard drums to match.
For those unfamiliar with DZA’s work, we’d recommend projects from this year like Mood Swings with Real Bad Man. There, he displays his penchant for hazy flows, evocative descriptions, and elaborate rhyme schemes. Also, he tends to choose different production styles for different tracks. The 38-year-old
sounds just as fitting on “Park Bench Blues”‘s trap beat as he does on drumless beats.
Furthermore, this track is a compelling
synthesis of old-school sample work and more contemporary and atmospheric trap
production. Both elements are minimal and raw in the mix, with neither over powering the other. The melodic wood wind loop doesn’t change, but it’s pleasing enough to the ear to stick around. Moreover, it contrasts wonder fully with the deep bass that kicks in with Curren$y’s verse.
Additionally, the snares and minimal hi-hats are incredibly sharp, with
tones that cut through the rest of the track.
Meanwhile, Smoke DZA and Curren$y deliver some chilled-out verses that cycle through street topics. The New Orleans native comes through with slightly more aggressive energy, as his flows and rhymes evolve and morph into
each other. DZA, on the other hand, delivers some vivid weed bars, a more measured flow, and direct punchlines. “Catching packages like Odell” is one of a few gems sprinkled in the track. With a new collaborative album with
Big K.R.I.T., Girl Talk, and Wiz Khalifa on thebway, we’re sure to get more of those.

Quotable Lyrics
Me and top shelf pot, that’s a love story, Puff-puff in Cullinans, moving luxury, Every two hundred I make, I gotta tuck 40, Have two Ms saved the time I touch 40
