Curta is the alias of Denver MC Jake Danna, who performs and records with producer 4Digit. The duo creates an unconventional take on hip-hop by adding elements from industrial, noise and electronic music. Their latest release is the "Click Bait" EP, which features a guest verse from Chicago rapper Serengeti.
