Background
After finishing out his contract with the Atlantic Records for the release of his 2011's album MusiqInTheMagiq, Musiq signed with Warryn Campbell's record label My Block Records. However, in June 2014, he emerged as a rapper under the pseudonym The Husel. At the time, he planned to release an album under the name, with guest appearances from Pastor Troy, T-Pain, Bone Crusher and Cash Out, among others. He later released the project as a free EP with five songs. The move caused Musiq to receive heavy amounts of criticism on Twitter. During the backlash, he defended his career change, saying it was primarily due to the change in the music landscape where R&B music's popularity has waned.
