There’s a certain wisdom in Hoosh’s music that reflects the years he spent moving around as a young man. Growing up, the Miami, Florida-based artist with a melodic and shifting approach to hip-hop spent half his time in America and the other half in the Middle East, giving him exposure to a wide range of international sounds and the perspective of someone adept at the art of reinventing themselves. Hoosh has garnered over 9 million streams since releasing his first breakout single “Better Days” in 2018.
His latest project, everything’s going to be alright, is his most personal to date, showing a maturing artist beginning to interrogate how exactly he got to this point. On the lead single, “Jorja,” Hoosh reconciles with the loneliness of being separated from family while also needing to venture off on his own. You can feel Hoosh wondering what’s really important as he finds more success, yet feels his familial relationships slowly becoming more distant. Hoosh’s best music manages to sound bright and sunny, while at the same time honing in on the existential malaise felt by those still figuring out who they are and where exactly they’re going.
