Curren$y has been on one hell of a run the past couple of years. But even the hottest of rappers have often found it difficult to transfer some of their individual success over to their lesser-known understudies. Fortunately, the new album from Curren$y’s studio crew, Jet World Order, carries over the consistency that Spitta has built up over his past half-dozen or so releases. Read the rest of this entry »

As a fan, in order to get the most out of your entertainment experience, you obviously want your favorite artists maxing out their creativity. But, while above and beyond would be nice once in a while, I can almost guarantee every fan of Spitta and his Jet Life crew are just fine watching their heroes hibernating with ladies and Moet in a luxurious launch pad, high amidst the New Orleans skyline for the video to their Jet World Order single, “1st Place.” Read the rest of this entry »

Since Jet World Order has finally landed at your local retailers, it was only right we gave a little more incentive to get in the whip and pick up a copy. Or, if you already hit play on this hazy dedication to hard work, you may be so zoned, downloading from iTunes is probably be the better idea. Read the rest of this entry »

You know when you’re over at your aunt’s house and they’ve got one of those old, Casio keyboards, with the built in Entertainment-Tonight-esque demo songs? Well, slow down the BPM about thirty and you’ll have something similar to the beat behind “Excellent,” the lead track from Curren$y & crew’s Jet World Order. Read the rest of this entry »

That pesky foot injury may have slowed Spitta down for a moment, but everything seems to be falling right into place for the young man from the bottom of the map.

The first single from the group album Jet World Order is the hazy and endearing “1st Place.” Read the rest of this entry »

They say all work and no play is an easy way burn yourself out in whatever path you take in life. But when you’re Curren$y and your work is your play, there’s really no way to lose, especially when getting high is part of the job description. Read the rest of this entry »

When you’re rolling with The Jets, you’re bound to be in slow motion. This time out however, $pitta and his cohorts put the freeze frame on their smoking session because everyday is a Weekend At Burnie’s. Tour bus life. Hotel daze. Roll something, bitch. Read the rest of this entry »

Curren$y and his cronies match one, giving up two tracks in one visual and sharing up scenes of the Jet life. Read the rest of this entry »

Instead of lurid tales of the good life, Trademark Da Skydiver and Young Roddy step away from the glitz and glamor on “What If.” Read the rest of this entry »

The Jets co-pilots take to the airwaves with a track of their own, allowing Spitta to lean his seat back while they commandeer the plane. Read the rest of this entry »

Curren$y and his crew are known to live the high life. And when I say that, I don’t just mean that they smoke blunts like most people breathe oxygen. The Jets have always been known to live large, with fancying with few of the concerns common to us everyday folk. That’s why it’s a shock to catch a glimpse of the human beings behind the lazy eyes in the video for “Hold On”, one of the standout tracks from Pilot Talk II. Read the rest of this entry »

Another day, another mention of Curren$y and Pilot Talk and that’s okay. After Wayne stole his style and ran with it, Spitta went underground and built his own following.
