    This is a fantastic debut album from East London Rapper J Hus. My favourite tracks were Closed Doors, Did You See, Fisherman, Spirit, Friendly. This album was defintley well deserved to be nominated for this year mercury. Looking forward to J Hus future projects.

    Only "Friendly," another lightweight track recorded a few years back, makes Common Sense end with a question mark. ... With only one mixtape and one album J Hus has been able to enter the top ten in a competitive market, and Common Sense shows why, hitting the right notes with its expert composition and overall emotive quality.

    What J Hus has over all else this year is an ebullient ironic pseudo-oblivious pomp, the kind of breathless mongrel music you’ll only ever get from folk young enough to miss how vital it is they’re breaking all the rules. [Jul 2017, p.62]

    It’s obvious he’s at the fore of UK rap. Lyrically, this LP hits the same themes as on his breakout 2015 mixtape.
