Hus Kingpin — The Threesome EP 2: The Art of Sex


Sequel to the EP released the year before, it never hits those levels, either due to cheaper than usual production, and due to a less inspired performance. Macapella, Prynce P, Chin Beats and yes, Buckwild too, are involved in the creation of the rhythms for this twenty-minute tape divided into nine songs. The midtempo drum falls weak and static on the melodic samples, while Hus spits out monothematic bars with a slow and lazy style, with a few really good moments. The beat chosen by Buckwild immediately stands out from the rest, also because it pays homage to Dilla in "Runnin'", while Hus seems to want to do his best impression of Pharcyde, at least for a few moments. The production, already not excellent, drops in the final, rising with the glossy-glittered beat of "Forget Your Past". 6/10.
