CURREN$Y PILOT TALK TRILOGY ZIP FULLĪnd though his discography’s full of surprises, like the live-band Muscle Car Chronicles, he doesn’t stray far from his comfort zone on the Pilot Talk series, working mostly with soul-enamored beatmaker Ski and sticking to weed, cars, jets and women as subject matter-with plenty of digressions that make his rhymes all the more delightful. That this sameness can sustain itself for so long is a tribute to just how complete and enjoyable Curren$y’s aesthetic is. His music is weightless, decked out with lounge guitar and gossamer string samples. He’s not far off on “Montreux” when he compares his music to Marvin Gaye’s 1980 performance at that famous jazz festival. And though his rhymes are dense and drunk with language, they’re never hard to follow. If you miss a detail, there’s bound to be something else you can sink into a couple bars down. It’s the kind of luxury rap you can listen to in just about any situation and feel like you’re sipping mimosas by the beach. So the compilation passes by like a cloud, and the individual tapes blend into each other. It’s a listening experience not unlike Todd Rundgren’s Something/Anything?, the gold standard for double albums that deepen and get weirder as they go on. The first Pilot Talk is the most song-oriented and, accordingly, has the best individual songs-“Skybourne,” a posse cut with Big K.R.I.T., Smoke DZA and the psychedelic shimmer of a Shuggie Otis song and “Breakfast,” which is the best song about getting high I’ve ever heard. Pilot Talk 2 is all about language, light on the choruses and heavy on the shenanigans, and the beats are earthier and less baroque than on the first. It’s a little weirder, a little harder to just put on in the background. Pilot Talk 3 is the black sheep of the three, released nearly five years after the other two into a vastly different rap landscape. It’s more story-oriented, opening with a narrative of Curren$y’s come-up and featuring the only song among the tapes where his perpetual philandering and home-wrecking actually seems like a cause for concern (“Cargo Planes”). Ski is less involved here, and accordingly, it’s slower, less lush, more Southern. Riff Raff even appears on “Froze,” rapping though a frightening Travis Scott filter. Taken on its own, it’s the least of the tapes by a significant margin.

Here, it darkens the mood as the album seeps into its late hours. Pilot Talk 3 isn’t as good a Pilot Talk release as Weekend at Burnie’s, a lovely little record that rivals the first two tapes in the trilogy. Retrieved July 1, 2020.I always thought Burnie’s should be called Pilot Talk 3 instead, but tacking it to the end of this release might tire out listeners.

In the United States, the album debuted at number 30 on the Billboard 200, selling nearly 21,000 units in its first week. Possibly the result of label interference, he trades innovation for collaborations that neither guarantee new fans or manage to impress believers.' Commercial performance With that I ask, does anyone have a light?' Jesse Fairfax of HipHopDX said, 'Largely unmemorable and full of cameos that only wind up watering down Curren$y’s potential for excellence, Canal Street Confidential is a textbook case of an artist with a cult following attempting to make use of a greater budget. “Roll one up for them haters,” Franklin rhymes on Canal Street Confidential. If the Pilot Talk trilogy is Curren$y’s sky-high flight of fancy, then Canal Street Confidential feels more like a cab ride the day after a late night.

David Jeffries of AllMusic said, 'It's another lark from a man who has taken plenty of them before, and while some may look to his major-label efforts for the more well-rounded LPs, they can check the Pilot Talk series for that kind of breadth, and appreciate Canal Street Confidential for the sharp and well-executed idea that it is.' Ryan Staskel of Consequence of Sound gave the album a D+, saying 'What we have here is an artist in cruise control taking a premature victory lap.
