Raised in Carol City, Florida, Curry started rapping while in sixth grade and began working on his first mixtape in 2011. On September 24, 2011, Curry released his first mixtape, titled King Remembered Underground Tape 1991–1995. The whole project that Curry posted was later included on SpaceGhostPurrp's page, which prompted the birth of Denzel's music career. Following the release of Curry's first mixtape, Curry became a member of SpaceGhostPurrp's hip-hop group, called Raider Klan.
Curry left Raider Klan in 2013, releasing his debut studio album, Nostalgic 64, in September of that year, while still in high school. He has since released three extended plays: 32 Zel/Planet Shrooms in 2015, 13 in 2017, and UNLOCKED (a collaboration with Kenny Beats) in 2020, and four studio albums: Imperial in 2016, Ta13oo in 2018, Zuu in 2019, and Melt My Eyez See Your Future in 2022. TA13OO, ZUU, and Melt My Eyez debuted at numbers 28, 32, and 51 on the Billboard 200 chart, respectively, with Melt My Eyez returning at number 17 after the release of an extended edition. All of his projects have garnered significant critical acclaim.
In 2012, he released his second mixtape, titled King of the Mischievous South Vol. 1 Underground Tape 1996, which caught the attention of fellow American rapper Earl Sweatshirt and other members of Odd Future label.
Curry's third mixtape, titled Strictly for My R.V.I.D.X.R.S., was released after the death of Trayvon Martin, who also lived in Carol City and went to the same high school as Denzel Curry. His rap style on this mixtape was inspired by 2PAC. On June 9, 2015, Curry released his first double EP, titled 32 Zel/Planet Shrooms. His first release in 2016 was the single "Flying Nimbus".
His second full-length album, titled Imperial, was released on March 9, 2016, then re-released later on Spotify as the deluxe version on October 14, 2016. In June 2016, Curry was featured on a cover as one of the XXL's 2016's Freshmen Class.
On May 13, 2017, Curry uploaded a track entitled "Hate Government [demo]" to his SoundCloud account. In the weeks that followed, he released two more demos for songs entitled "Equalizer [demo]" and "ZELTRON 6 BILLION ft. Lil Ugly Mane." After these releases as well as a series of cryptic posts on social media (seemingly portraying another alter ego called Zeltron), he released an EP entitled 13 on June 25, 2017. All of the demo tracks were included on the EP as well as two other new songs. On August 18, 2017, Curry released another song called "Skywalker." Later that year, on September 22, a remastered version of 32 Zel was released, including a remix of "Ultimate" featuring Juicy J.
On April 2, 2018, Curry released the lead single off of Ta13oo titled, "Sumo" on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show. On May 24, 2018, Curry released the second single off the album titled, "Percs". Curry then released the third single titled, "Clout Cobain", on July 13, 2018, and announced that his album TA13OO, would be released in three acts: The first act, Light, was released on July 25, followed by Gray on July 26, and Dark on July 27. Each previously-released single represents one of the album's acts, as "Sumo" represents Light, "Clout Cobain" represents Gray, and "Percs" represents Dark, which comes together cohesively to form TA13OO. TA13OO features guest appearances from GoldLink, JID, JPEGMAFIA, ZillaKami and more.
On January 5, 2022, the official trailer for Curry's fifth studio album, titled Melt My Eyez See Your Future, was uploaded to his YouTube channel. It was revealed that the album would contain guest appearances from artists such as T-Pain, 6lack, Slowthai, Rico Nasty, J.I.D, and Thundercat, among others. Curry said the project would feature a new, more mature sound, different from his previous works: "Y'all are not going to hear the same type of Denzel anymore." On January 24, a single titled "Walkin", along with a Western-inspired music video directed by Adrian Villagomez, was released. Curry also said the album "is made up of everything that I couldn't include on Ta13oo or Imperial because I was going through depression and anger issues", and would take inspiration from traditional hip-hop, drum and bass, trap, poetry, and jazz. The same day, a North American and European tour promoting the album (with guest acts Kenny Mason, Mike Dimes, Redveil, and PlayThatBoiZay) was announced. On February 24, Curry released another single from the upcoming album, "Zatoichi" featuring Slowthai. It was accompanied by a music video also directed by Adrian Villagomez. On March 18, Curry announced the album would be released on March 25. On March 21, a third single, "Troubles" featuring T-Pain, was released along with a music video. The album was released on March 25, 2022. It debuted at number 51 on the Billboard 200 chart, and at number 23 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
Curry recorded a song featuring rapper Reason, "1st Quarter", as a contribution to Apple Music's "collection of exclusively commissioned new songs from Black creatives", titled Juneteenth 2022: Freedom Songs. He commented: "It's an accomplishment to make it through the first quarter of my life. Especially as a Black man in America".
Curry's song featuring PlayThatBoiZay, "Let It All Hang Out", was included in Elvis—a biographical movie about Elvis Presley that premiered in June 2022—as well as on the movie's soundtrack album.
On June 24, 2022, a collaboration between Dot da Genius, JID, Curry, and Kid Cudi, titled "Talk About Me", was released, along with a music video directed by Cole Bennett. On June 29, 2022, Curry performed an NPR Tiny Desk Concert. On July 21, he performed "Walkin" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
On September 30, 2022, Curry released Melt My Eyez See Your Future (The Extended Edition). The album features reimagined versions of songs from the original album with live instrumentation performed by the Cold Blooded Soul Band, which performed with Curry on his NPR Tiny Desk Concert and The Tonight Show performance.

Denzel Curry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Tell me all of your true feelings
And what you wanna do with us
My crew made of true villains
If we shoot you should shoot with us
If you do that's my nigga
I got love for the real bitches now
That there is the truth isn't, it
What else would you consider?
For those that have seen me in person
Know i flow perfect
With out a purpose life must be worthless
In any instance I'm with
It forgive for forgetting
Tickets for a sentence they
Might end up missing im hurting
Those with no focus your mind must be open
Thats what i need most
And although others may speak on things
That they probably don't know I
Just need you to go where your
Knowledge may grow just follow
The voice of a generation: a giant
Due to my level of elevation
Hired Hitman should be my new occupation
And it's this land I
Rule without competition, see
Nothing is gained if you never take risks
I plan to progress till we don't exist
I need you to listen, i don't need assistance
Just walk with a vision
Pursue with persistence
So would you go, let em know
Im the man now, stand down
Cause this might be your
Final chance last dance lap when i pass
Wave the checkered flag in the winner's
Circle with my Superman stance
And it's sink or swim if you don't float
I'm wondering if I'm living a dream
So I'm knowing that I'd lose sleep before
I'd lose steam or there's no hope
Tell me all of your true feelings
And what you wanna do with us
My crew made of true villains
If we shoot you should shoot with us
If you do that's my nigga
I got love for the real bitches now
That there is the truth isn't, it
What else would you consider?
Keep it calm and collect
She offered the neck all for the set
Ok whats next you rappers be acting suspect
Line em up, only mess with a few
I'm riding around with my crew
And my driver is screw
You sit on a couch while I'm busing a move
Tell me I'M keeping the flow and
She want to keep goin' i feed the few
This how i do (this how i do)
You get goosebumps when I touch you
Baby Bone 94 do the math slowpoke
Fast stroke tip toe only 5 foot 4
With a 6 foot ho 8 foot stripper pole
Divided the dimes together they grind
Killing each other for money and diamonds
I really can't blame em
Get money for the kids when the day comes
Respect me the feelings is mutual
Been doing some things I really ain't used to
This lifestyle I gotta get used to it
Pussy bald like Bruce Willis
Tell me all of your true feelings
And what you wanna do with us
My crew made of true villains
If we shoot you should shoot with us
If you do that's my nigga
I got love for the real bitches now
That there is the truth isn't, it
What else would you consider?
My girl shoot once but she never shoot twice
Shine like a dime nickel plate light brite
I'mma keep it G, try to be like Mike
Tried to pull yo ho and fuck her on skype
Knock the pussy out then send ya on sight
New slaves to the game to god which is I
E Y E, what do you see? S T E V I to the E
So you wonder why this nigga so hot?
Cooking with the ice then you got me in a pot
That Percy Jackson, water whipping
Talk sideways and the fo's on tipping
Denzel ain't snitching
So brother keep listening
Be a shooter and a baller
That's a pistol and piston
Never go rogue so i don't be lynching
Yellow gold in my teeth
Nicknamed Bart Simpson
Melissa is a real life Lisa
Pull cards bicycle jump on Visa
Play for the win we the highest you see us
Ask Freddy Kreuger what he thought
About: he dreamed us c9, OF, SS
Why your girl think I got an S on my chest?
Try and get saved i ain't loaded
Pull the trigger on the truth
Every second I’m on it
And what you wanna do with us
My crew made of true villains
If we shoot you should shoot with us
If you do that's my nigga
I got love for the real bitches now
That there is the truth isn't, it
