Denzel Curry Says He Lacks Confidence, Explains How Kanye West Helped Him

by Daryl Nelson

Denzel Curry spoke to Pitchfork about Kanye West inspiring him. 

Curry admitted during the conversation that he lacks confidence in his music at times and seeing jeen-yuhs, the documentary on Kanye, helped him.

"I’m watching him get sh*t on as a rapper and it reminded me of the times I’ve been sh*t on as a rapper because people don’t take me seriously," said Curry. "When it comes to my music itself, I’m not as confident because I don’t know what people will gravitate toward ... I can be discouraged because I know my music is good but someone might be like, 'Oh, you one of them rapping n*ggas, huh?' And that would discourage me. jeen-yuhs confirmed to me that I should be confident in my music no matter what, even if nobody wants to listen to it."
