Fixed
Kind of agree.
The hook.
Glad he brought BJ the Chicago kid back for Oxymoron. It's no surprise Studio is on par with I'm Good. They work well together.

He performs a Kendrick song at his shows to show love for him and the crew. Before Kendrick dropped GKMC, Q would perform ADHD from Section 80. Q's a down to earth dude so I dont think he uses a Kendrick song to "keep the crowd going". He's just showing love to the homie.

Setbacks is a really good album. You can tell he has gotten better but still has a bunch of jams.
Lost my **** when he did this at the Best Buy show...

I think he was gonna come back out and do it, but the dj messed it up. He let his dj have about not having the music ready. Was quite salty though

Man this cd is strange...it's just not good at all IMO. Beats aren't good, choruses aren't good... I'm pretty disappointed cuz I mess with Q
There's about 3-5 songs I would keep. And those songs are really good but the rest are just meh

ScHoolboy Q: "I Love Interscope, But I Wish I Could Have Just Stayed With TDE"
by Soren Baker
ScHoolboy Q also says he may do a line of bucket hats.
Known for wearing bucket hats, ScHoolboy Q says that he’s been approached about doing a line of the accessory.
“Everybody wants me to do a line,” ScHoolboy Q says during an interview with hot937.cbslocal.com. “There’s so many bucket hat companies offering me so much money, but I’d rather do it myself. If you wanted to give me that much money, I know I could make that much money on my own.”
The TDE rapper then says he has another reason for not doing a line of bucket hats.
“I already did wrong by signing a rap contract,” ScHoolboy Q says. “I’m not talking about TDE, but how we ventured off with the majors. I wish we would have still stayed indie. I don’t care about being on like 100 radios or **** like that. I love Interscope, but I wish I could have just stayed with TDE.”
ScHoolboy Q’s TDE/Interscope records debut album, Oxymoron, was the #1 album in the country last week, selling 138,950 copies. The Los Angeles rapper says that neither he nor his labelmates is working on a mixtape, though.
“We don’t do mixtapes,” he says. "We don’t put mixtapes out. Everything we drop is an album– we don’t play that mixtape game. We put all our time and effort into one project, to make it great instead of just doing songs for a tape. That means you’re not focused on your album.”

I highly doubt Kendrick and Q have 360 deals. I bet they have more of a distribution deal.

I agree about Kendrick but q not so much which is why soul and rock are probably still independent. Side note, anyone know the 2nd week numbers?

He did 30k
From him talking about merchandising, it sounds like he's in a 360 deal because he wouldn't have brought up Interscope making money off an outside venture like his bucket hat line. I just don't understand why you'd make that deal when Kendrick set everybody up to be able to do **** independent. Q says he had to sacrifice on his album but the only songs I see that's an attempt at radio is Hell Of A Night and Man Of The Year which still sound like typical Q records. It's not like he's had any expensive features/videos or crazy marketing so I don't really see what the point of going to Interscope was, TDE could have definitely done Oxymoron in house.
I understand Kendrick doing Interscope because he obviously wants to be a major label artist and has the crossover appeal. While Q has the appeal, he seems like he doesn't wanna play the game.

Court dates, but I skipped the bail
Rather wig myself before I sit in jail
These lines have been stuck in my head since the album dropped

How people hate on that song baffles me.
That **** is flames.
Wish they would've had the instrumental instead of rapping over the CD. :x

I dare you to sit here and say that this new age of mixtapes haven't negatively affected the quality of rap albums.

Low album sales imo is what made dudes start focusing on mixtapes to get their reps up and make that show money. Mixtapes can sometimes be better than albums because of no sample clearance, well not as many sample clearance issues.
Look at a dude like Wiz whose Kush and OJ had most of us thinking that he had next and then his albums. :x
I wouldn't say mixtapes are solely to blame, the age of piracy made everybody have to adjust.

Yeah but at the same time it's kind of a catch 22 cause the mixtape being better than the album is also a reason why the album sales are low. In this era of piracy where people can choose wether or not they want to spend money on music, ain't nobody trying to buy subpar albums.
Truth is, the internet, mp3, Steve Jobs, and clear channel radio has destroyed the music industry. But that's a topic for another thread (which I'm thinking of making).
