The growth and progression here is stunning.
Big Conspiracy is an album that certifies J Hus as one of the most influential artists in UK music.
The charts are currently packed with British rappers, but not all of them have their own niche quite as clearly delineated as his. Big Conspiracy leaves you wanting to hear even more.
It represents a broadening and deepening of J Hus’ artistry, while sacrificing a tiny aspect of the immediacy that turned his Top 10 debut album ‘Common Sense’ into a modern British classic.
Big Conspiracy showcases both of these sides well, while exploring a darker side of his sound palette and confirming his place in the new generation of post-grime British artists.
Improving upon his more eclectic debut, Common Sense, Big Conspiracy is smoother, preciser, and more measured.
Hus re-emerges a more thoughtful figure on his second album.
Big Conspiracy is Hus’s second chance – an album that proves he’s just as essential a part of UK music today as he was three years ago.
