Special thanks to Mousa, Curren$y, and the entire Jet Life Recordings team for having us out and blessing us with some of Spitta’s signature strain, Andretti OG. You can watch our recap of Spitta’s show at The Novo below, and secure tickets to see the Pilot Talk Trilogy Tour when the Jet Life fam pulls up to your city soon. Spitta ran through a laundry list of his biggest anthems beginning with fan favorite “Roasted,” telling his DJ to cut the backing beat for most of his final verse on nearly every song to make sure fans could hear these bars through the thick layer of smoke filling the room. The Louisiana-born wordsmith came on stage to deafening cheers as if it was a hometown show - and it might as well have been because there are likely few places Curren$y feels more comfortable than in California. Luckily, I was able to cash in a favor with Spitta’s camp and sneak on stage with a couple cameramen in order to witness one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen in Los Angeles. From the flick of the Bic, I knew the Los Angeles date at The Novo would be a can’t miss show. To honor the digital freedom of his most celebrated work, Curren$y announced the Pilot Talk Trilogy Tour, a cross-country trip that would allow fans new and old alike to experience these elite-level smoking soundtracks. In mid-June, my wish finally came true for one of my white whale classics, as Spitta resolved his long-fought battle over the rights to his pivotal set of work and finally delivered on his promise to provide all three iterations of the series to fans, no matter their streaming orientation. For the record, those three elusive projects were Future’s Purple Reign (and Monster for that matter, but mainly just for “Codeine Crazy”), Travis Scott’s Days Before Rodeo, and Curren$y’s iconic smoking album, Pilot Talk. For example, I’ve written countless strongly worded letters to the offices of Spotify in an attempt to get three of my favorite projects finally added to the streaming platform.

The modern age of music has brought along quite a few welcome advancements, such as virtual reality music videos and streaming services that grant you access to a world of musical possibilities for one low monthly price.īut the fight for subscribers has created a war over streaming rights fought with licenses and exclusive releases that sometimes leave fans in the dark.
