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.

Curren$y Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There is no peace
I ride 'till there is no wheels
Till there is no streets
Like where is my piece
They dying in them cells or already dead
Or tryna kill themselves
I feel myself and she feel my wealth
So it will not help, I gotta get me
And money like pussy and I gotta get deep
So I gotta get street cause it's riding on me
My niggas can't drive, I got riders with me
And nah I ain't into that
Back and forth chit chat
As a matter fact I'mma end that
Prone to destruction, home is corrupted
Stones in my dungies won't do the justice
Them hundred dollar homes is in abundance
Hustle on a mountain, hustle in a tundra
Get that money or don't function
Punctuation exclamation exclamation period
That's the way I have to make it
S to K, you better take it, idiots period
Bullshit, I pity it
Them guns shot so loud you
Would think I MIDI'd it
I shot more than once, I'm ab-libing it
Oh well you been in hell so what
I live in it
I'm giving it all I got for them incentives
Riding for them benefit's and now it's
Back to 10 a brick i like 'em thin and thick
Really I like 'em thick, high yellow and shit
Weezy F Baby
Hot Spitta, nigga, flow so sick
Sidekick talkin' to my older bitch
I had to leave her
'cause she was too controlling and shit
I'm like "you can't have me
I'm too young for you bitch"
They got these niggas in the street tryna
That's cool, bring it, I got guns for you son
I'm talkin' about 17 other
Glocks with the beam
Homie, I guarantee that I don't miss
Hot Spitta ride slow two burners on the seat
Cops can't get addicted to my grind
Bitches stop riches, mami I ain't got time
Respect a nigga mind
Bitch I'm tryna get my cake
They hatin' on me
They don't wanna see me get my shine
Gon' make me whack one of
Them niggas 'cause they fake
745 and I ride for that Uh
'Cause what I hustle for
These niggas try to take
But before they run up on me
I'ma put it on his mind
Then they gon' find his body
Floatin' in a lake i'm tryna figure out with
These niggas mistake my kindness for weakness
Ain't nobody sweet bitch
Young money YM that street shit
Nothin' but heat slick
Rockin' you to sleep quick
Don't fuck around with the dudes
'Cause I ride around with them tools
And I bring the drama to crews
You know I keep sick, yeah!
