Schoolboy Q reminds us that even the most revered MCs arenât immune to lyrical missteps.
While preparing to release his Blue Lips album, the Grammy-nominated rapper took some time to answer fan-submitted questions on X. Q addressed a wide range of topics that covered everything from video games and unreleased tracks to his favorite TV show and dream collaboration. But one of the most talked-about queries came from user @pilgriim222, who asked Q to name the âcringiest lyric you ever wrote.â
âMake da pussy drip like a slitted wrist,â the rapper replied, followed by facepalming emojis. âLike braH embarrassing.â
The admittedly weak line appeared in âHunnid Stax,â a Kenny Beats-produced cut from Ab-Soulâs 2014 project These DaysâŠ
While most fans co-signed Schoolboy Qâs answer, a few others disagreed.
Q is now gearing up to release his sixth studio album, Blue Lips, the long-awaited follow-up to 2019âs Crash Talk. The TDE rapper teased the project during a 2023 appearance on the Back on Figg podcast, when he explained why there was such a big gap between his record releases.
âWhen it comes to music, I donât look at it as like, âOh, you have to drop every year,ââ the 37-year-old said. âIâm like, no, your favorite rapper has to drop every year because he needs chili. I do what I want because I move off peace, I move off my experiences. As a artist, if I bring nothing to the table that comes from my life, I donât feel I should put it out.â
Blue Lips will hit streaming services at midnight on Friday. The album spans 18 tracks with guest appearances by Ab-Soul, Freddie Gibbs, Jozzy, Rico Nasty, and more.
You can pre-save Blue Lips now on all major platforms.
