Welcome to UK Rap List, where elite MCs represent the essence of UK rap culture. This week, we salute the return of someone who’s done more than most in recent years to stretch the sonic boundaries of UK hip-hop, J Hus. Fresh from a triumphant show at London’s Royal Albert Hall in June, the East London rhymer has dropped his first new music since 2023, linking up with Afropop superstar Asake on “Gold.” Drawing on rap, grime, dancehall, and Afrobeats, the track celebrates success—and achieving it on your own terms—with Asake‘s hook leavening the ground-shifting bass of a P2J-produced beat. Listen to “Gold” on the UK Rap List, and if you hear something you like, add it to your library.
