At the tail end of March, Price presented F.O.E.S. and he shared two new singles to hold supporters over until then. First came “Amistad” and then the Bas and Wyclef Jean-assisted “Selfish” came following suit. He now closes out his year strong by presenting “Curtis,” his latest single and new collaboration with Big K.R.I.T. On the track, Price pays homage to Curtis Mayfield with his bars, and name drops other legends along the way:

Diamond in the back, sunroof the top, lookin’ like Curtis Mayfield on the block/ Gangsta lean, thank the team, season premiere, pull a seat up and watch/ Restraining order, I beat up her box, just had a dream that I beat up a cop/ Two distant strangers you see on the block

This shit on the floor, who gon’ come sweep and mop? Yeah sittin’ comfy at the top/ Watchin’ Dr. Ben, it teach me a lot, watchin’ Malcolm X

Behind-the-scenes, Price co-wrote and produced for names like Wyclef Jean, Travis Scott, Lil Wayne, Mariah Carey, Brandy, Kanye West, Hit-Boy, Ty Dolla $ign, Rick Ross, T.I., and many more. In 2020, he stepped back into the spotlight solo with CLRD project back in October. The eight-track project included features from names like Candice Boyd, Kota the Friend, and even a whole interlude dedicated to G Perico.

In terms of what Big K.R.I.T. has been up to, he released his series of five career-defining mixtapes a few months ago (Return Of 4eva, 4eva N A Day, King Remembered In Time, It’s Better This Way, and A Style Not Quite Free (12 for 12))on DSPs for the first time. The blog-era staples were previously lost in translation as the music world moved to the new norm of streaming, but they are back now and here to stay.
