If you’re looking for some new tunes from Musiq Soulchild, you might want to prepare yourself for a change. The “Love” singer recently released a new mixtape called The Husel, debuting his new alter-ego as an auto-tune rapper. It’s obviously a complete turnaround from what his avid R&B are used to hearing from him.

He said of his new alter-ego to Madame Noire:

“I like to entertain people with what they’re saying entertains them.”

The mixtape can be streamed and downloaded on DatPiff, and you can hear an explanation of Musiq’s new career move in his interview with the site on the next page, as well as check out his listening party footage.

What do you guys think of the new look for Musiq?
