Many probably learned about Curren$y<\/strong> from last November’s XXL cover story and his work with Mr. F Baby, but he’s been in the game for almost a decade putting in work and paying dues.<\/p>\n

From his stints with two of the biggest labels to ever come out of New Orleans<\/span> to the countless mixtapes to his recently released solo debut, This Ain’t No Mixtape<\/em>, it was only a matter of time for the one they call The Hot Spitta.? He’s also got Fly Society, a clothing jump-off he started with pro skater Terry Kennedy, which is already making noise on the streets.<\/p>\n

Of course, we wouldn’t be interested in Curren$y if he didn’t have a proper kick game.? We got a chance to ask him some questions about his favorite sneakers and recent purchases.? Maybe some of the readers could even help him find a pair.<\/p>\n

Check it out after the jump.
