Screen-Shot-2014-09-15-at-1.26.41-PM*Sigh* We lost another R&B singer. Musiq Soulchild aka The Husel is now an auto tuned rapper. Yeah you gotta check this out. According to NecoleBitchie:

Musiq Soulchild is on some new ish lately. Dressed in all black, crowned and sometimes masked, he’s currently going by a new moniker called The Husel, and he dropped a new mixtape that strays far away from the neo-soul sounds that made us fall in love with him in the first place.

Sort of like The Artist Formerly Known As Prince or Snoop Lion, Musiq Soulchild is attempting to create a whole new identity for the new direction he’s taking with his music. The mission statement on his mixtape declares that, “The Husel is not a person, THE HUSEL is a state of mind. Everyone has their own interpretation of the hustle, this just happens to be mine,” and this new venture is inspired by how people hustle on a day-to-day basis to make money.

His explanation simply is that he was no longer marketable as Musiq Soulchild:

“I’m starting this whole new thing. I turn on the radio, and people seem to be feeling the kind of stuff that I’m doing as The Husel. The other brand (Music Soulchild) is R&B. But right now it’s kind of challenging to see or hear that sound being popular right now. For whatever reason, R&B is struggling.

I’m the type of person who likes to entertain people based on what they’re saying entertains them, and right now this sound is what’s entertaining them. As an artist, songwriter and producer I sit back and listen and say, ‘Okay, if that’s what y’all like, I can do that.’”
