From the opening line, "mark my words", Rob Bailey & The Hustle Standard are making a statement with their second album, appropriately titled, Beast.  If you're not familiar with the RBHS sound it's a mixture of hardcore, dubstep, hiphop, and punk elements meant to get you off your ass and headed down a path of domination.  Fans of their previous EP, Battle Tested, will be happy to know that Beast picks up  right where the duo left off.  The Hustle Standard's production is still huge; Rob Bailey's voice is still larger-than-life; and the songs still make you want to run through walls.

Beast starts with the song "I Am Not Done" which features the Brooklyn-born artist Moxiie proclaiming "This is not last year and I am not done here".  The second song is also the title-track, "Beast", and quite simply, this one is a BEAST.  On "Run This" Charley Hustle (a.k.a The Hustle Standard) sings "I'm too busy chasing mine to let the world leave me behind/I'm going for mine", and on "What I Live For" Rob's hell-fire voice demands that you "Wake up!".  "Ambulances", a fun play on Rob's verse from "Run Shit", features the Bronx rapper, Drew Boogie.  The remix to "I Am Not Done" is an uptempo, electro remix that helps the album breathe before getting into the final remix.  "The Beast Remix" is not just a remix of the song "Beast", but of the whole album with elements of every song over heavy trap style production.  The final song, "Jealous", is undoubtedly the most unique of the 8 songs, and on first listen could be seen as a departure for the pair, but all of the intensity and honor, that make Rob Bailey & The Hustle Standard what they are, is front and center over this methodical, evolving track.  Overall, Beast, is a declaration that, despite any odds, people can not only overcome, but can become Beasts.

Once again here we go
Know the name know the flow
Turn me up a little mo'
I'm setting traps, home alone
You know you wack
I'm a maniac 
Boy you know I'm black to the bone
Pick a place, nigga pick a date
I'll go Goku, Piccolo
You thought you was good, huh?
Take you out back, drag you through the woods, huh?
Thought I was weak, huh?
You ain't see the work I put in all week, huh?
Give me that
Where the city at
Nitty gritty, this ain't gon' be pretty, Jack
Not afraid
Get up out the way
Ya'll used to hate
Look at what you made

When it all goes down...
I'ma' run this town

Fire in my soul, got my eyes on the Crown
I can't help myself lately, can't turn myself down
I'm in love with you baby but I let you down
I can't die in this town
I won't die in this town

Yeah
Hey
Don't die in this town
Yeah
Get em' up
I won't die in this town

Hold up homie let's wait a minute
Lately I don't even pay no visits
I can still hear the hater critics
Saying, "he ain't gon' make it is he?"
Lately I developed laser vision
Yeah burn through people and their cruel intentions
Crazy, you trying to play me?
Boy you wouldn't even make the scrimmage
Get your ass up and pass up your limits
Got these new rappers looking vintage
All I really do is eat spinach, count money up and hang with pretty women
I was driven yeah I had the vision
Then Goon came along and made it vivid
Haters livid cause we really living
I'm a freight train
You a Honda Civic
Hold up, wait, let me get specific
If you pick a mission and you stay committed
Stop transmitting and you really listen
You'll see that big collision is just a big transition

When it all goes down...
I'm gonna' run this town

Fire in my soul, got my eyes on the Crown
I can't help myslef lately, can't turn myself down
I'm in love with you baby but I let you down
I can't die in this town
I won't die in this town

Hey
Hey
Get em' up
I won't die in this town

Act IV: Awake

Die In This Town

All my life I've barely spoken
Your words have been so broken
I've been under your hypnosis
Why did I sip that potion
I'm so done with holy ghosting
My birth it is an omen
Lay me down up in the ocean
Until you see no motion
Right now I can barely focus
I'm showing no emotion
On your knees show your devotion
My skin is black but golden
I'm not here for bragging boasting
Ain't lying I been chosen
Mind is burning hearts exploding
This is my magnum opus

Are you with me now
Said are you with me now
Ain't felt this good in a while
They want us to simmer down
Can you hear me now?
Am I going in and out?
I stop and just look around
To see if you're with me now
Tell me are you with me now
Ready to put it down
Start at the bottom
Already forgot them but they won't forget me now
You really ain't ready now
You haters just in the crowd
But still I just look around
Are you with me now
Are you with me

Step in the fire get ready to take it higher
Real nigga coming out your amplifier
Ya'll want every black man to be Richard Pryor
While these white boys fuck up and turn into Shia huh?
Cell phone became your brother
Internet replaced your mother
You leaving homies on read
It's no wonder all your friends dead
Jealousy was the center piece
So my best friends turned to enemies
Sabatoge my identity
Why they wanna treat me like a kennedy
They won't effect the legacy
Protect the heart, I cut off the extremeties
I'll never be another piece in your recipe for social supremacy

Are you with me now
Said are you with me now
Ain't felt this good in a while
They want us to simmer down
Can you hear me now?
Am I going in and out?
I stop and just look around
To see if you're with me now
Tell me are you with me now
Ready to put it down
Start at the bottom
Already forgot them but they won't forget me now
You really ain't ready now
You haters just in the crowd
But still I just look around
Are you with me now
Are you with me no woah
Are you with me now
Said are you with me now
Ain't felt this good in a while
They want us to simmer down
Can you hear me now?
Am I going in and out?
I stop and just look around
To see if you're with me now
Tell me are you with me now
Ready to put it down
Start at the bottom
Already forgot them but they won't forget me now
You really ain't ready now
You haters just in the crowd
But still I just look around
Are you with me now
Are you with me

I feel it coming now and
It's too late to shut it down and
Over the mountain now and
Burning the valley down and
I don't know where my mind is
Don't even know what time is
Somebody stop the virus
I don't think I'll survive this
I feel it coming now
It's too late to shut it down
Over the mountain now
Burning the valley down
I don't know where my mind is
Don't even know what time is
Somebody stop the virus

Room full of bodies but nothing but silence
Yeah I'm quiet but fuck all that shyness
Go crazy turn this bitch into an asylum
You fly but we ain't looking for pilots
I'll never bow down to a tyrant his highness
Even Jack said fuck all them giants
What goes up comes down man that's basic science
Look in my iris and you'll see defiance
I'd rather not get involved with you niggas
What's the problem man I'll solve all you niggas, huh?
How you fine when your time up?
How you climb when your line stuck?
Barbershop getting lined up
Yeah your head good but your mind fucked
Super damn clear
Uber everywhere
This sound like super man is here

Are you with me now
Said are you with me now
Ain't felt this good in a while
They want us to simmer down
Can you hear me now?
Am I going in and out?
I stop and just look around
To see if you're with me now
Tell me are you with me now
Ready to put it down
Start at the bottom
Already forgot them but they won't forget me now
You really ain't ready now
You haters just in the crowd
But still I just look around

I Am Defiant

From the Rob Bailey & The Hustle Standard EP Battle tested

Hungry

Charley Hustle (The Hustle Standard) brought in the young and talented UK producer, Lost Soul, to do a special remix version of the entire Rob Bailey & The Hustle Standard smash hit EP, ‘Battle Tested’.  

The original album dropped on May 15, 2012 and shot straight to #1 on the iTunes Top Electronic Albums chart followed by a debut at #13 on the Billboard Heatseeker’s chart later that week. With the help of their publishers, Wonderlous Music Publishing, fan favorite track “Hungry” was selected as ESPN's "Elite 11" 2012 mini-series theme song and was placed in a SportsCenter Arian Foster feature sponsored by Under Armor (see here: http://www.dlpentertainment.com/work/arian-foster-armour/). 

While still built around the writing and vocal performances of Rob Bailey & Charley Hustle, Lost Soul takes the sound deeper into the worlds of dub-step, and electronica, all while amping up the intensity of an already adrenaline packed set of songs.  The only thing that doesn’t change is the drill-sergeant manner in which Rob Bailey & The Hustle Standard pushes it’s listeners to work harder, do better, and achieve anything.
