Denzel Curry made a stop in Columbus, Ohio at KEMBA Live! as a part of his now-concluded Melt My Eyez Tour. Denzel spent the first month of tour opening for Kid Cudi in arenas on the West Coast, and closed out with two months worth of headline dates across the rest of the United States.

The Miami, Florida native started making his music himself while in high school with free audio software. Curry released his debut album Nostalgic 64 in 2013, however, it was not until the release of the song “Ultimate” in 2015 off his album 32 Zel that Denzel Curry’s name crossed over into mainstream rap and hip-hop. The song now boast more than 189 million streams on Spotify, which is closely followed in popularity by the 2018 song “CLOUT COBAIN.”

Denzel Curry released his fifth studio album Melt My Eyez See Your Future on March 25, 2022 to great acclaim. An experimental new sound for the artist, the album brings forth a new sense of vulnerability and self-reflection to previously high energy sounds. While the album gives listeners a new soundscape, it is still definitively a Denzel Curry album - giving fans a familiar yet incredibly new understanding of the rapper's immeasurable talent and ingenuity.
