Hustleman Quise Is the Latest New Dallas Rapper to Sign With a Major Label

Another rapper from the New Dallas movement has signed with a major label.

On Friday, July 25, Hustleman Quise posted a video of him touring Capitol Records while riding around New York City in a Lamborghini Revuelto.

Quise, while holding a huge stack of cash, has signed with LLC4 Records / Capitol Records.

“I just want to thank God for changing my life around!” he wrote. “I went from trap houses to corporate offices! I ain’t doing this for myself I’m doing this for my city! #newdallas They letting us in the door 1 by 1! Anything possible if you just BELIEVE, GRIND, & STAY FOCUS! WE CORPORATE THUGGIN NOW.”

Quise thanked Capitol and Orlando Wharton, the EVP of Capitol Music Group and President of Priority Records. Wharton has his own record label, LLC4 Records, which he is building up as an incubator for hip-hop’s next stars. Named after the infamous Puerto Rico housing projects Wharton once called home, Luis Llorens Torres, LLC4 is focused on telling the stories of those who often get overlooked.

The Observer confirmed Quise’s deal is a partnership with LLC4 Records / Capitol Records.

Dallas rappers such as Yella Beezy, Zillionaire Doe, Montana 700, HeadHuncho Amir and Zeethewizard congratulated Quise on the move. “Dis wha it look like when erbody onna same thang #StayDown,” Montana wrote.

“Find a plug, everybody eat. Build up your team, D Boi Dreams,” Doe wrote. “No surprise to Doe I told ya.”

“Q, You did it. I’m proud of you,” Amir added.

He is the fourth rapper from the New Dallas group to sign, following HeadHuncho Amir (300 Entertainment), Montana 700 (Remain Solid / 300 Entertainment) and Zillionaire Doe (CMG Records).

Wharton’s track record for finding real street rappers on the rise is significant. In 2015, he signed Fetty Wap to 300 Entertainment. He also signed the late rapper and singer PnB Rock, the late XXXTentacion, A Boogie wit da Hoodie and YoungBoy Never Broke Again, among others.

Back in June, Million Dollaz Worth of Game, hosted by Gillie and Wallo, came to Dallas to spend some time with Montana 700 and Zillionaire Doe. They hit Oak Cliff, Preston Hollow (to see one of Doe’s properties) and did a collective interview with the New Dallas rappers at X-Perience.

On how Quise got into rapping, he says he didn’t want to rap at first. But being around guys like Doe and Montana gave him motivation to try it. “Bro and them said you need to rap,” Quise says. “I was on house arrest for five-six months, I was sitting back thinking…I watched the interview with you and Icewear Vezzo. He was just like, ‘If you hustling and you ain’t rapping, you ain’t doing it right.’ I just thought about what bro said and started rapping.”

Quise says he knew he had something when Rod Wave saw his second video. On his YouTube, that would’ve been “Never Heard of Me,” a hard-hitting, no-snitching anthem about Triple D business.

The New Dallas movement centers around brotherhood and positivity, bringing neighborhoods together for one goal of putting past beefs behind them to be unified. The group hopes to release an official New Dallas mixtape in the future. With the attention they have now (some of them attended the BET Awards together), it’s only a matter of time before the rest of the world catches on.
