Rising: @J_Huss816 Dropping His First Mixtape + Talks @NipseyHussle, @SnoopDogg & More

This week on rising, we've got in touch with an rising artist from KC Missouri! He goes by the name J-Hu$$. After releasing a table of singles, and 2 music videos, J-Hu$$ is ready to release his first mixtape. He will be releasing his first mixtape titled "This Is My Effort", aka T.I.M.E. Which we can't wait to hear. Check out the interview as we talk more about it and his upcoming music. J-Hu$$ is definitely holding it down for Kansas City.

Age:
29 Years Old

Hometown:

Kansas City, Missouri, born & raised

Who did you grow up listening to?

Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Rakim, Jay-Z. Mostly the 80s to early 2000s Era

My styles been compared to:

I've never been told who i was compared to because I have a sound of my own. But some people I've grown up with would tell me that my deliverance is equivalent to this other KC artist name Rushin Roolet (aka Rush Borda). Dude sounds like a beast sometimes when he raps and that's kind of what I do, depending on the mood swing of the record.

My standout records are:

"The Come Up" with Mr. I'm On

"On Top of The World" with Aritse

"Achieve" grabbed alot of people's attention, which got them attached to "How I Ride {Remix}" with JV Frm MN. Alot of people love that record too.

I’m a rising artist in my city because:

The records I put out is relatable, different and defines me as a person and artist. Like most of my hometown [Kansas City, MO] are more on like Mob music. But me, I've always wanted to come with a different approach. Something that's unique to where people can relate and love it, but also know that it's different, it's honest and it's me. I believe that when you do something that's out of the ordinary, you rise and become great for that.

Listening to your latest single IDGAD, we see you have Fatt Tyree & Mr I’m on, as featured placements. How did this song come about and what did it take for you to get the featured artist on it?

So, I'm cool with both artist outside of music. I grew up Mr. I'm On since we were teenagers and Fatt Tyree I've known for about a little over a year since he dropped his Mixtape "KC Grandtheft Auto" (Go Cop that). Tyree sent me a video link to check out of the blue. I watched it and checked out his other records he put out and was like 'Yo, I need that'. So, with the records that Tyree put out and Mr. I'm On as well, both of them got that beast mode mentality and it fit perfectly with the record. I brought it to them and the rest is history.

Video Stand Out: #IDGAD

We see that you have a feature with a artist that we’ve recently featured. Can we expect any more from you and JV?

Hell yeah, that's my boy. We'll have more records together coming up and lord willing a project together. "How I Ride {Remix}" video is coming soon!!!

Will you be releasing any new mixtape/projects soon?

Yes. My first mixtape "Vol. 1: T.I.M.E. {This Is My Effort}" underneath my label [T.I.M.E. Music] will be released December 27th, 2019. It'll be the 1st volume of a mixtape trilogy.

What can people expect from you around this time next year?

My brand expanding, more music, more videos, more shows, etc., etc.

Bonus question:
If you can do a song with any 2 artist in the game, who would it be and why?

Rakim cause I grew up listening to his music for a long as I can remember and what he brings to the table is authentic and it's phenomenal. If Nipsey was still alive, he would be my other choice cause what he brought to hip-hop/rap is powerful. But I would sub Snoop in for him cause snoop gives the world himself. Not too many artist in this era do that and snoop has been doing since his career started and I like that kind of music: authenticity.
