“Hustling,” whether legit or illegal, is a favorite topic of almost all urban artists.  How the money is spent is where the gap widens—while many blow their cash on frivolous luxuries, the more mature-minded take their currency where it’s needed, using it to support their families or communities.  J. Blue, for one, is motivated by his woman; on his latest single, he lets her know “Im Ya Hustla,” and promises to work overtime to provide all that she desires.  Though Blue’s technically an R&B artist, this track holds equal appeal for the hip-hop demographic; Rick Ross’ two verses and outro mesh perfectly with Tank‘s bass-heavy beat (never thought I’d be using “Tank” and “bass-heavy” in the same sentence).  The Blue Book: From The Block To The Bed might not have a solid release date yet, but this track suggests that, once it does hit stores, the LP will be a solid investment for listeners on both the hip-hop and R&B ends of the urban music spectrum.

I thought this was a real tight mix of R&B and rap. Rick Ross sounded great on this darker production and J had some good vocals and energy. I like it!

I agree, Gstan. Dope R&B and Hip-Hop mix. This should warrant plenty of attention from music directors at radio. Rotation.

if J Blue was the r&b part
and Rick Ross was the rap part gstan10 is refering too,
i disagree because ross was just unnecessary. i dont think an artist shud thru ross on a song just cuz of the word "hustla"
the r&b part is hot
and if the production was the "rap" aspect, than yes this is a real good mix.

@that1kid13 - I was talkin about Ross being the rap part, J being the R&B part and the production suiting the overall track nicely. If you asked the question: Could J. Blue do this song on his own? I would say yeah, probably, but I really thought Ross was a nice addition because he fit the beat so well and added a nice rap blend with the song. That's just my opinion, man.

I like this production, and J. Blue. His pix is misleading, I thought he was a rapper. He has a great voice. This didn't need Rick, but he ain't hurt it.

Wasn't goin to check this, I thought it was one more wannabe rapper... but J. Blue sounds like a "hustla" indeed, you know, a badass who can sing. He can handle a high pitch, good vocals! I'll definitely check his next feature!

I feel what you're sayin GStan, Ross just fits! Come on that1kid13, show him some love.. ;)

Beat is "The Runners" level: as hot as it could be! I love the bells, rhythm/percussion is sick!

Played out over a slow methodical beat that really makes J.Blue's vocals pop and Ross does Ross ...
Overall it's in-rotation.

This is a first, Rick Ross actually fits well on a R&B track (I never thought I would say that).

Production is tight from Tank and J.Blue had some great vocals.

I dont think anyone (unless you knew who J.Blue was), was expecting this to be a R&B track.

The beat and Ross are a little harder than I would like. I would like the song better with more J. Blue. Go check out his work with Youth Asylum back in the day. Their label folded before they released their album, but he (along with the rest of the group) sings the heck out of Color Everywhere.
