Generic list post: the best of Husalah



Most rap journalists ain't nothin' but models for pigeons on t-shirts, so fair play to David Drake for interviewing Husalah on Noisey. You wack like World Cups if you're not down with Golasoaso, so consider this to the soundtrack to Hus' kicking limitless wisdom to Drake about slaps and science:

Cuttin' It Up [ft. B-Luv] (2006)
Through The Night (2006)
B.I.T.C.H [ft. Dru Down] (2006)
Frozen Heart (2006)
Shock The Place [ft. The Jacka] (2006)
Live Life Illegal (2006)
N*ggas Out There Mine [ft. The Jacka] (2006)

You Neva Know (2010)
Loyal To The Mob [ft. Mob Figaz] (2011)
Da Mob (2011)
See The Dark (2015)

    Gotta have been some classic "americans do football" snafus, wish Id been following him on twitter for the last world cup. He does seem like a real fan but how much of that is just the beautiful n gorgeous jerseys.

    Only ever listened to Hustlin' Since the 80s so looking forward to someone makin a zip of this one.

    Always heard that Hus' was big into soccer, following some European teams and championships and all that, like in that one video : https://vimeo.com/28964864

    In hindsight, Granit Jacka would have been a better pun than Jacka Wilshere.

    mad about the exclusions of:

    Stay Silent
    Fell In Love With Crime
    Husalah Shine
    Laid Back Slap ("Hotter than a radiator cap!")
    that bonus track that samples Jewel ("You sayyyy you want to kill")

    Yeh Husalah Shine might be my fav n I Fell In Love with Crimes amazing but BAP BA BADADA BAP

    Also 100 Rounds In The K is prob better than any of the other ones I mentioned. If your not implementing quotes from this interview in your life already youre losing.

    One of the most impressive things bout that album is it OPENS w a song sampling Manu Chao which manages to be dead hard.

    Lazy rap internet motherfuckers aren't going through Husalah's catalogue "on their own", especially when some of his key songs are spread across obscure compilations, and other key songs aren't even on Spotify because they were random loosies or from Datpiff mixtapes.

    upside of Husalah not blowing up is theres no label suits going back n wiping a load of them obscure classics off the internet.

    Its harder to find some shit online now too, feel like theres stuff that woula used to been on some blogspot thats only available to buy off some extortion artist now. I was delireh looking @ Town Thizzness bandcamp the other day but theres kinda fuck all on it, maybe theres itunes for them though I suppose.

    There's an early Husalah song on the same compilation as Jack's Mac Hand that I can't find anywhere online. It's called O To The Sto' and features Rydah, AP + Freako.

    Not sure if you found (“O”) To da Sto already (was also included on Freako & Rydah J. Klyde’s album and some other projects under a different name), but it is also on the compilation that Rob Lo just released (‘DAT Tapes’). Might be worth a listen.

    I didn't know about this RoLo album. Cheers 👍
