Schoolboy Q - Oxymoron: The official discussion thread

[BlackMagnus514]

I'm eagerly anticipating this album. Q is my favorite of TDE next to Ab, and I'm eager to see what he can do. Definitely copping the physical.

I agree with whoever said that Interscope didn't do much to broaden his appeal. Q's pretty much the opposite of Kendrick in that he hasn't gotten many major looks, like homey said. He's pretty much a rapper where if you know about him, you do, and if you don't, you'll probably hear about him through word of mouth. A feature on GKMC woulda helped out too.

I do think he's big in the college crowd and they'll hold him down. I'm going to his show here in NY on March 4th.

Agreed no rocky track would be a criminal offense. They compliment each other so well. Brand new guy is still some of my favorite tracks to ride to.

meh…pmw the only track i really dig. hands on the wheel was dope but played

Yea, I feel like people who know/like Q are checking for this, but he/they didn't do much to get him out there to broaden interest in him.

K Dot carried an aura with him from section80 heading into gkmc ,plus the dre co-sign and getting a dre beat on the recipe helped get him noticed, but being on a club banger with the hottest names in rap (fukkin problems) also helped. Q, outside of an album feature on rocky's album last year, hasn't had any major features or big singles (that work remix was a flop), that's where they fukked up. I'm personally not mad cuz I could do without a forced q x Rick Ross x future x mike will made it song, but that mainstream exposure is missing.

that won't no dre beat…does dre ever use vocal samples?

[BlackMagnus514]

He's like 4/4 on tracks and Break The Bank is total fire. Him and Alc definitely got chemistry.

Actually I just double checked and you're right, Dre just got the mixing credit, although that can mean anything these days.
