2nd article

Jhus is a 21 year old east london rapper. His debut title hit the east london with advertisements on westfield billboard, yet the sound of his music is not to be confused with plain old grime. Jhus leads a the group of MCs who blend the genre of a distinctly UK flow with bashment and afrobeat. In the album common sense, J Hus shows us about partying, chasing girls and being a "bouf daddy" like one of his song titles. J Hus is a motivational speaker shown in his music too. The gunshot-littered claritin and goodies are far harder than any recent grime tracks with its upbeat tempo which really banged.

for his newest music video common sense he is standing in the middle of a cold aircraft hangar on the outskirts of bedford. the star of the uk rap scene is shooting for his next single common sense, he is watching two girls being filmed as they scramble for £50 notes being blow through the air by an electric fan. 

"Shall we get them to play fight" he asks excitedly. Before he finishes his sentence, one of the girls topples over and crashes into a polystyrene board. "Is she OK? Are you ok? shit, tell her to take her heels off! Shall we stop?"

Clearly there is two sides to J hus. He spent some time in prison, in 3024 and in 2015, he is extremely polite. He takes hard edged sound of road rap and mixes t with some of grime's cheeky humour. "im an ugly man making sexy money". 

He grew up muslim on an estate in stratford, Hus didn't share the musical education many of his rap peers had at church. instead, the second generation british gambian came to music via his mum and stepdad playing african music and beenie man at home. In the school playground they'd play around and you'd have to go home, write your bars and come and clash the next day, Here he developed his rap skills.
