Posted May 23, 20232 yr Signs have started to emerge that the follow-up to 'Big Conspiracy' will be released soon! @1660997337143975937 @1661078919108259840 Edited June 29, 20231 yr by Y'all Starlight
May 24, 20232 yr Really looking forward to this one, it feels like it's been ages since he's released anything. I'm thinking he will get another top 10 single and (depending on the release week) #1 album which would be great.
May 25, 20232 yr Author All signs are pointing towards tomorrow as the release date for something related to the album Edited May 26, 20232 yr by Y'all Starlight

May 26, 20232 yr "Murder Gives Me A Boner" :lol: Lyric of the year contender, one only Hus could get off with saying Or for worst rap lyric ever possibly. :huh:
May 26, 20232 yr "Murder Gives Me A Boner" :lol: Lyric of the year contender, one only Hus could get off with saying but is it as iconic as “I’d be a genius if I didn’t think with my penis”? :thinking:
May 26, 20232 yr Author but is it as iconic as “I’d be a genius if I didn’t think with my penis”? :thinking: Hmmm, i'll have to have a long think about that.... :thinking:
June 1, 20232 yr Author J Hus has sent texts confirming that 'Don't Say Militancy' will be released on Thursday the 8th of June! I think it will probably be the Friday though
June 4, 20232 yr Author He's been debuted a new collab with Burna Boy at the latter's concert at the London Stadium. I'm excited to see what can happen on pt. 4!
June 8, 20232 yr Author Surprise! A long-rumoured Drake collab called 'Who Told You' has been released a few minutes ago. It seems like the album will be releases at a later date. FlJQudt_OtU
June 9, 20232 yr I definitely do get the appeal of this one, it's a very summery song made for the sunshine and that chorus/hook is infectious. So much so that I just listened twice in a row, it gives me early 00s vibes, mixed with South African house (the beat isn't quite amapiano but I can see that's the inspiration). Could do without the Drake verse personally, he couldn't sound more tired and bored on it and the vocal production doesn't sound as crisp as the rest of the song? Would have preferred to hear another J Hus verse. Hopefully he'll put out more mixes without Drake on it, or someone else. It's interesting that we went so long without any massively mainstream UK rap songs and then we get two huge tracks in consecutive weeks. Someone's made this - much better :lol: oK--54Tcg3I Edited June 9, 20232 yr by gooddelta
June 9, 20232 yr The Drake collab is fine on first listen. But it's nowhere near as good as 'It's Crazy'. I'm loving the horrorcore, almost 'Gravediggaz-esque' vibes on that while 'Who Told You' just feels a bit bland.
June 9, 20232 yr On multiple listens, 'Who Told You' is sounding worse and worse. Drake's verse is mixed horribly and just meanders on quite tunelessly. Hus's parts feel like he's on autopilot too. It's obviously going to be a huge smash because of the summer vibes and the excitement of a big UK/North American rap collab is still high but it's such a stepdown from 'It's Crazy' and any track from 'Common Sense' and 'Big Conspiracy'. It's his first big misstep for me. So weird as he usually has brilliant quality control. I haven't really seen any of the general reaction but I can't see it appealing to his core fans at all.
June 26, 20232 yr Author So, there has been an interesting set of updates in the past few days. - It will most likely drop this Friday - It is 19 tracks long - It has 8 features (Drake is obviously going to be one of them, with the possibility of CB and Burna Boy too) - It is actually not called 'Don't Say Militancy' (what a shame, I loved the title)
June 28, 20231 yr Author A billboard in Stratford has teased Burna Boy, Popcaan, Jorja Smith and CB as some of the features on the project.
June 29, 20231 yr The album is called 'Beautiful and Brutal Yard' and will be released on 14th July. I'm just hoping the Drake track is a one-off and the rest will be up to his usual standard. I'm particularly excited for the Jorja collab.
