I'm embarrassed to say I sort of lightly skimmed through H&C and Oxymoron. I liked a handful of joints on each, but this Blank Face album is so thorough that I think I really need to revisit Q's discography and give each one a proper listen.

Like, I didn't even know he had an album before Habits & Contradictions.

I only gave Q a shot because I saw Alchemist did a beat on H&C, so I listened to My Homie and liked it. Then it was sort of the same thing with Break the Bank. But I liked other joints along the way. Sacrilegious, Oxy Music, Blessed, Hoover Street, Blind Threats, Man of the Year...I didn't listen to much else.

I'm about to go back and check these albums again.

Yo Swizz did the beat for Lord Have Mercy?

:ohhh:

So he's on the drumless loop steez too now?

This is instantly one of my favorite Swizz joints in a long ass time.

It's weird as hell, rtight.

The production on this album is so... unexpected.

Swizz? :leon:

MEtro Boomin? :leon:

Younge? :leon:


Dude on the Dead End Hip Hop review up there LITERALLY was like ":what: wait... Tyler The Creator made the beat on Big Body!??!? :leon::leon::leon:"

setbacks is extremely weak to me. q had no direction on that album, you had gangsta shyt, party/drug anthems, followed by him spitting gangbang (pause) lyrics onver instrumental hippy ass beats you'd expect to hear kendrick or soul on...it's like 4 songs i fukk with on that album
