Curren$y & The Alchemist – Covert Coup
Released: 20 April 2011
Hard to believe Covert Coup has aged 10+ years already… this is one of Curren$y’s best records.
Produced entirely by The Alchemist, Covert Coup was released just as Curren$y entered his peak/prime – in the midst of Pilot Talk 1, Pilot Talk 2, and Return to the Winner’s Circle!
Check out my original Covert Coup review from 2011 — (and 2nd opinion)!
★★★★1/2: Stellar example of genre; peak potential.
