Having released one of this year’s biggest British Breakthrough albums, J Hus has announced his European tour which kicks off November 1st 2017 and comes to Manchester Academy on Friday 10th November. J Hus recently completed his sold out UK tour to support the release of ‘Common Sense’, and was joined by Nadia Rose, Lotto Boyzz and Young T & Bugsey.

His debut album ‘Common Sense’ came in at No. 6 on The Official Charts, and has since spent three weeks in the Top Ten selling an impressive 30 thosand units to date. Boasting an ebullient blend of Dancehall, Afrobeat, Grime, Rap, Garage and R&B, ‘Common Sense’ is a musical revelation, an emotional rollercoaster ride into the inner musings of an inner-city musician.

As well as his signature sound – some say UK Afrobeats, others AfroGrime – there are nods to others influences too. Production over the entire album comes from Hus and long-term collaborator JAE5, with additional production on select tracks by Tiggs, Show & Prove, The Compozers, Mark Crown, TSB and iO.

After Parklife this weekend, J Hus will be back in Manchester at the Academy on Friday 10th November. Tickets are on sale now from here.
