I'm not exactly sure when ScHoolboy Q became one of my favorite rappers, it was probably somewhere between my 97th and 146th listen to Oxymoron. From Ghostface Killah to Tech N9ne, my favorite rappers tend to be aggressively strange, hilarious yet also not to be trifled with, and young Quincy was a rare breed within that rare breed. Capable of being intensely emotional ("Prescription/Oxymoron"), funny ("Collard Greens") and lethal ("Fuck LA"), ScHoolboy has become the holy ghost of the new school gangster rap spirit, and Oxy was his Old Testament.
Perhaps TDE has trained us well to not expect albums more than once every couple years, but it hasn't seemed like that long since Oxymoron. No "where's the new album though?!?!" fervor had set in, no "what happened to?" questions asked. Now, today, as his new album Blank Face arrives, it doesn't feel either anxiously awaited or too late, it feels like exactly the right time. My hopes for this album are higher than Q's uncle the night before a drug test, but I also feel oddly Zen about it. It will be an incredible album, or it will fall short of mind-blowing, either way the world will likely be just a slightly better place for having a new Q album in it.
Videos focused on underground and independent hip-hop so you know tomorrow's biggest hip-hop stars before they blow, plus coverage of the best and most noteworthy mainstream artists. From dope songs to classic albums, must-hear mixtapes to buzzing rappers, DJBoothTV is the authority in hip-hop.
