Hus Kingpin - Portishus (Gold Vinyl 2XLP)

Hus Kingpin is an underground fixture whose evocative, understated music fits firmly within the lane that fellow Long Island native Roc Marciano blazed a decade ago. Hus released a album called Portishus, which he says is inspired by Portishead's music now back on physical formats for the first time. Features appearances from rappers like Willie The Kid, Ransom, Smoovth, and Vinnie Paz. More to the point, it features a whole lot of hardnosed East Coast rapping over hazy spy-movie guitars and lost-in-the-world drum loops.
