"For five days hip-hop fans boarded shuttle buses that stopped in five Atlanta neighborhoods: its urban downtown, a spruced-up Midtown, the colorful Little Five Points, the almost-restored Old Fourth Ward and the slightly grungy East Atlanta Village. Altogether, the ninth annual A3C Festival, which took place from October 2–6, had spilled into 25 different locales to host nearly 500 rap acts—veteran and rookie, signed and unsigned, of crates and LiveMixtapes descent—with about 35,000 people estimated to attend."

"I’m lugubrious because I’m from a place where niggas always shootin’ shit and never on no Buddha shit,” Curry raps on “N64”, a line so inventive you almost miss its heart. Mostly, though, it’s tough to miss this album’s heart." - Consequence of Sound

"As far as debut albums go, Nostalgic 64 is a massive success. There's plenty of room to grow here, but the album is incredibly consistent and impressive. Denzel Curry has proven that he doesn't need his Raider Klan ties to flourish on his own, though the SpaceGhostPurrp influence is evident here. " - Absolute Punk

"Denzel Curry is not only among the newest artists of the area, but probably the youngest. How many artists can you name that have just graduated high school, performed at Coachella, and have been interviewed by MTV’s Sway!? Exactly. Not to mention, he also creates the dope artwork himself on his projects!" - Ashley Outrageous

"Purrp hit me up. He didn't call me, he hit me up on Twitter, because everybody thought he kicked me out, and he didn't," Curry recalls. "I'm just addressing this now. He didn't kick me out. I chose to leave. But I wasn't going to let this rap shit or this contract shit come in between friends, because this is somebody who helped me out in the beginning." - Village Voice

For an outsider or even an insider it's hard to decode exactly what the Raider Klan represents. Recently, SpaceGhostPurrp made news by taking to Facebook to hint a possible retirement. Tonight SGP took to Facebook again to put the retirement rumors to rest. Klan member Denzel Curry also dropped a new video that may put some context to the group. If anything, it may add more mystique to the already confusing yet intriguing Raider Klan. Watch the video for "The LVND" above. - Complex Magazine

If you don’t know, now you know: Raider Klan ain’t takin kindly to any threats. So says Denzel AK Curry and his fellow Raider Klan members Yung Simmie and Robb Bank$ on their new track, “No Threatz”. The dark, infectious, loop featured on the song sounds like nothing short of a Ronny J masterpiece, and hopefully the young producer will act as the main beat contributor to Curry’s upcoming mixtape Nostalgic 64. So far, “Threatz” will definitely appear on the mixtape as will ”Dark and Violent”, the deadly cut that emerged from Curry in November. If anything, the two releases have proved that Curry is that new fire, and everyone should be on the lookout for the Nostalgic 64 drop. - Respect Magazine

I first heard Denzel Aquarius Killa Curry a.k.a Raven Miyagi on Metro Zu’s “Mink Rug” tape on the track “Pantheon” where he raps superfast over a slow, wavy beat. His verse on that track really stood out to me as well as he guest appearances on Mike Dece and Ruben Slikk’s “Proper Boyz” mixtape.

Then, I checked out Denzel’s King Of The Mysterious South mixtape which is a super raw collection of dark, intense songs especially the murder anthem “Headcrack” which is one of my favorite Raider Klan tracks still. I talked with Denzel via phone about martial arts, Outkast, Orange Juice and more…
