by Dr. Eunice Moseley

(July 11, 2025) - "They just come to us," said Chrystal (Singer/Rapper) part of the Hip-Hop duo Team Hussle about the many gigs they have going on since they went "professional." "We perform on the 4th of July."

"...Need to get my face out there," Cedric (Rapper), the other half of Team Hussle, added.

Team Hussle has been into their music for years. In fact, Chrystal said "...since the sandbox...we grew up together."

That's a long time. As lyricists Chrystal is known as Skreamin or Skreamin Hussle and Cedric is known as DamnPapa or Papatoo Hussle or just Hussle.

"Now, we're leaning on PR," Papa Hussle said about how they will get their faces out there.

Once Team Hussle decided to go professional they've been "spitting" out singles constantly. Singles include Skreamin Hussle's "Get Rich," "Multi-Talented," "In Tha Back," "Fight Night," and "Only the Beginning." Their latest is "Therapy" which is accompanied by a just released music video with 10,000 views already.

The quality of their music and production is impressive and when I asked about it Papa said, "Chris did mine. He is insane."

Skreamin added, "My beats are by Corey and engineering by Chop Shop."

Their music can be heard on all major platforms, such as Spotify and Apple Music.

"He was doing his music before me," Chrystal said about her partner. "Papa been doing his thing...and I was writing songs since middle school. That's what I love."

"We have a tape out called ‘Hussle Tape'," Skreamin informed me. "And I dropped ‘No Categories' and he got some visuals coming out for ‘Therapy.'"

Team Hussle is from South Central, and you can hear that in their music and see it in their performances.

Papa Hussle said his influences are old school Hip-Hop artists.

"I grew up with all the after-school specials....‘Set It Off,'" Papa said as we ended our interview. "... I was inspired by the songs of Too Short, Snoop Dog, Xzibit...old school."
