Curren$y had an underground hit in 2006, Where Da Cash At, which can be heard on several of Lil' Wayne's mixtapes, including Dedication 2. He was featured on Lil Wayne's song "Grown Man" from the album Tha Carter II. Due to certain issues concerning the release of his album Music 2 Fly 2, he left Young Money and formed his Fly Society crew with professional skateboarder and rapper Terry Kennedy.
He has since focused on his Jets movement, which helped introduce various rappers such as Trademark da Skydiver, Young Roddy, Fendi P and T.Y., as well as slightly reintroduce No Limit veteran Fiend to new audiences. He later started to work in New York with Ski Beatz and other MCs at Dame Dash's DD172; where he released Pilot Talk and its sequel Pilot Talk II both in 2010, and was also featured on several songs on Ski Beatz' 24 Hour Karate School. Since then, Curren$y has put out eight more albums, 25 EPs and 43 mixtapes.

Double 07
Curren$y Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shelter from the rain in a parked car
Chopping game, modifying my slangs
Fog lights in the grill, in the grill whipping the 96 [?]
[?]
My independence remain cause I ain't working for the radio station like Martin Payne
I grind and maintain my peace of mind almost lost it once on the line
Paid for bringing death to these wack niggas
You call them raps that's why them labels never called you back
Pimpin, yea jack, spitta snap, long flight, turbulence bad
Baggage claim tags car service rolling grass Double 07
But I ain't talking agents, 2 ounces and 7 grams my nigga we still blazing
You uneasy in my presence, dumb questions, dumb statements
I'm on a whole other level roof terrace you the basement
Couldn't gain possession them haters couldn't take it
Can't see me unless you sleeping nigga Freddy vs Jason
Snoozing on a JET movement, the worst nightmare in the making
The opening line of Curren$y & Alchemist's song "Double 07" sets the tone for the rest of the track. It suggests that the listener should already be rolling up (smoking weed) at this point in the song. From here, Curren$y spits bars about his lifestyle and the things that make him tick. He takes refuge from the rain in a parked car and contemplates the modifications he's made to his language and the way he presents himself. He describes his 1996 model car (presumably a classic) with fog lights in the grill and an impeccable stance. He revels in his independence and the fact that he doesn't have to rely on the radio stations to get his music heard.
