Denzel Curry and Smino just found out they are cousins

Words: Dylan Murphy

The next family reunion is going to be lit.

Florida spitter Denzel Curry took to Twitter today to share some surprising news.

It turns out he is a blood relative of St. Louis native Smino.

Tweeting he said, “I found out me and Smino got the same uncle and to think this n**** roasted the fuck out me when we first met.”

He later continued and said, “He on the Curry side of the family”.

Currently, the pair have not released any music together to our knowledge, but maybe that’ll change after the next family reunion.

Curry most recent body of work is Unlocked, which he collaborated on with Kenny Beats. Around the time of its release he revealed he was part of a new supergroup called Club Black Dust with JPEGMAFIA, slowthai and Zillakami.

Elsewhere, we shared our thoughts on the acts that need to make their Irish debut once the pandemic is over and Smino made the list. Check it out here.
