Smoke DZA has made sure to recruit exclusively top-notch producers this year, as he's released a joint EP with Harry Fraud and has a joint album with the legend Pete Rock dropping this summer. Today, he's decided to look toward a more left-field producer in Flying Lotus, rapping over a few of the L.A. beatmaker's choice instrumentals for a three-in-one stream titled "Outside My Mind | 4-19-2026 | Petty Murphy."
The FlyLo beat DZA begins with is "Robo-Tussin," which was originally a remix of Lil Wayne's "A Milli." I'm not sure of the second ("4-19-2026"), but "Petty Murphy" is rapped over the instrumental of "Between Friends," which originally featured Earl Sweatshirt as well as Captain Murphy, FlyLo's rapping alias. DZA sounds right at home over these gorgeous productions, and hopefully his efforts here lead to an original collaboration with the Brainfeeder boss.
Quotable Lyrics
Stoned like let me be
40 dollar Hennessy
Nerd n*gga get his cuts from lemon tree
My emcees still got 10 for me
Free my n*gga Retchy P
Black'll be home the summer of '17
Hold your head 'cuz we gon' get this cream
