Watch: Denzel Curry - Zatoichi ft. slowthai

Originally Appeared In

A heavyweight meeting of MC minds inspired by the legendary Japanese blind swordsman character.

Halftime meets double time (or should I say hip-hop meets drum and bass?!) on the second single from Denzel Curry’s highly anticipated second full-length album, Melt My Eyes See Your Future, with Zatoichi featuring the British MC Slowthai dropping today.

With completely contrasting flows and rap styles complimenting each other beautifully (as does the beat switch with each MC’s successive bars), the tune is capped off with a gorgeous video sure to draw in fans of both hip-hop and Japanese samurai culture alike.
