British-Gambian rapper J Hus and Nigerian Afrobeats star Asake have teamed up for their electrifying new single, “Gold” — a vibrant cross-continental collaboration that seamlessly blends UK rap and Afrobeats.
The track arrives on the heels of J Hus’ sold-out Big Conspiracy fifth anniversary show at London’s Royal Albert Hall — a milestone moment that ushers in a new era for the East London artist, now partnered with EMPIRE for greater creative independence.
J Hus delivers charismatic, swagger-filled verses with standout lines like, “Every ring I’m wearing is gold, they’re calling me Gaddafi,” while Asake brings his signature melodic flair and Yoruba-laced energy to the hypnotic hook: “It’s a badman party, all white, zero fugazzi.” The duo’s synergy shines throughout, crafting a gilded anthem rooted in hustle, heritage, and bold self-expression.
With its pulsating beat and infectious chorus, Gold is already making waves — hailed as a global summer anthem and a celebration of diasporic excellence.
This marks J Hus’ first release since his critically acclaimed 2023 album Beautiful and Brutal Yard, and follows Asake’s launch of his independent label, Giran Republic, earlier this year.
Now streaming on all major platforms, Gold is poised to dominate charts and playlists worldwide.
