DENZEL CURRY – ZUU is the fourth studio album from Carol City's finest, released through PH Recordings and Loma Vista on May 31, 2019. The title itself is a love letter — "ZUU" is a nickname for Curry's home of Carol City, Florida, and every bar on this record bleeds that South Florida pride. Born from homesickness for Miami, Curry channeled the sounds of his upbringing, the people who raised him, and the culture that shaped who he is into a concise, electrifying statement of identity.
Across 12 tracks, ZUU is 100% unapologetically Miami-Dade — an album you're going to want to nod your head and dance to. Production heavyweights FnZ, Tay Keith, Charlie Heat, and Ronny J handle the boards, delivering an arsenal of hard-hitting Southern trap bangers that hit like a Florida summer. Guest appearances from Rick Ross, Kiddo Marv, and other Carol City collaborators make this a genuine community album — a full-on block party pressed to wax. Standout cuts like "Ricky," "Speedboat," and "Automatic" showcase Curry's razor-sharp flow and addictive energy at their peak.
The album received widespread critical acclaim, earning an 85 Metacritic score, with reviewers falling hard for its focused, uncompromising vision. AllMusic declared Curry worthy of a place in Miami's rap pedigree right alongside the local icons who inspired this gem. The vinyl edition — pressed on striking clear wax with green and orange splatter — is a beautiful collector's item, complete with a booklet and extras that make it as essential on the shelf as it is on the turntable. If you rep the culture, ZUU belongs in your collection.
