Is it better than Chance the rappers: Coloring Book? I'm really enjoying that right now and Blank Faces should be in my rotation in the next week or so, but I'm hoping people ain't over hyping it like. Don't wanna be disappointed, because Oxymoron was dope to me.
+CIB8282 he had like 1 filler. overtime. the rest was on purpose. he wanted music just to cruise to on there as well. he didn't want it all serious. Remember, he's a party gangsta. Know ya wrong had meaning and he did it with a blues kind of tone in his voice
Schoolboy got AOTY so far. Still waiting for that new Ab-Soul and Isaiah shit. TDE is killing it and they're gonna kepp on killing it till they don't care anymore.
+Graham Gunderson ab soul is not trash. He's had one subpar album. Did you not hear his guest verse on vice city and tHat part remix ? He killed those verses
i swear 1 sub-par album = artist is trash today smh. these days collectively wasnt great,but it still had some good joints on there. i hate how niggas are so quick to rip soulo to shreds now. reminds me of when lupe dropped laser,fickle ass fans
This review made my heart so happy. Been a diehard Q fan since habits & I agree he's just continued to get better & better. I cannot wait for his next project. Rumor is there'll be another this year & IM SO EXCITEDDDD
This has to be my favorite review on DEHH. 4 months later and this is exactly how I feel whenever I put this album on. This is probably the hardest album I've heard front to back.
In one of Q's interviews he was talking about that and was like at first he was worried and didn't understand it. But then he got it when he noticed how well it worked at the concerts he was doing leading up to the album release date. Kanye really knows how to think about what would translate well for performances and parties.
Sebastian Lopez Yeah. When i first heard it I felt it was not the best verse he could have done but it was catchy and then hearing Q talk about it helped it make more sense. And with TLOP I can see Ye still wanting to make lyrics where he is having fun and not trying to be to deep and this was a great chance as Q wanted to have a fun song on the album.
Well god damn lmao, you boys seem to have struck the same chord that I struck when I was two years younger. Thankyou for your lesson on how to properly and respectively act
So glad they got this sooner than I expected. Ok now we need to give them an album to review just to keep them busy. Let's give them Joey Purp - IIIDrops
This ^^ Anthony is a perfect example of when your taking a test and you dont know the answers, but your eloquent enough to make it "seem" like you know what your talking about lool
22gopher22 on top of that he admits he's not a hip hop head, and rarely likes good hip hop. Granted everyone ears are different but I like soul music but I. Mainly. Listen to hip hop so I'm. Not going to review soul because it's not my main genre so my review will be slated
Ive listen to this about 5 times, Id say I like about 9 out of 17 tracks, I dont think I enjoyed this nearly as much as Oxymoron and Habits & Contradictions, those projects were amazing, Ive listened to it about 7/8 times, its good, I want to love it as much as you guys, but I dont love it maybe I'll listen to it more tho, to see if I can digest it further, dope review tho guys at DEHH, thanks for the early access on Patreon
But Eddie Kane tho... I love playing that part so much. For every 1 listen of this album, I'll probably repeat that part atleast 6-7 times. I'm so in love with the instrumentation on that song. Whew...
yh Eddie Kane is fire, my faves are; Groovy Tony/Eddie Kane, Ride Out, TorcH, By Any Means, Dope Dealer, Blank Face, Tookie Knows II and THat Part grew on me
Man I love when they all are loving one project together in the review, cos they all just vibe off each other's opinions. This was really great to watch.
i aint gunna lie the only shit i heard from ab soul was his feat with chance.and after that"lemme put my mouth were u potty" verse i never looked into his music lol
You've got me pumped to give this a listen. These reviews never lead me astray. Vince Staples and Elzhi have become some of my favorites after your reviews.
I need to leave a huge thank you to you guys. You have been putting out quality reviews for years. So much goes into listening to an album and the fact you guys are able to put out so much is incredible. About Blank Face LP: For those of you who are on the fence about this album, a suggestion I have is listen to this at night. I thought the album was good when I first listened to it but I didn't think it was all that. For some reason when I listened to it at night for a second time it clicked and now I love this album
The beginning of the video killed me, kinge still don't like 808's and Heartbreak lmao but I'm glad you guys like this album, I love it too, TDE are on top
Great review my negus. The thing about Needle drop is he can't say this album wasn't made for him...everything ain't for everybody. Real Schoolboy fans should LOVE this joint!
Schoolboy Q just kicked down the door and sat on the couch of my top 5 rappers today. This is his best work to date. Him and KembeX got me replaying like crazy!
Ocean Sage Honestly, Super Crip was the only song I fucked with and that was just because of the beat. Like for real though, the first track?!?! I was crying man lmao. That track had me dying
R Torres I thought it was a fun return to gangsta Snoop. In addition to the previously mentioned 3 songs, I also like My Carz, Two or More, Feel About Snoop, Double Tap, Revolution, and What If. Snoop's been killing his features too recently with Dr. Dre, De La Soul, J Dilla.
Thank you this is my Album Of The Year so far...I can pull some type of enjoyment out of every track. I kinda saw this coming considering every ScHoolboy verse has been fire (especially Let It Bang with Ferg) this album is crazy.
I got a big ass Kol-Aid smiling listening to your reviews man lol. I'm glad y'all enjoyed this project just as much as I did, going to give it like a 4th listen now.
Fantano is one of the most stuck up people i have ever witnessed on the internet or in person. like that guy really is a douche. he studies music so he thinks he knows everything, but he very clearly lacks a good hiphop/rap ear
I can't watch Fantano reviews because he's just so overly condescending while he's reviewing a project. Even with shit he likes he still acts overly condescending
I love you guys man fr y’all are the best rating albums/tapes it’s awesome keep it up I know this video is mad old but you guys bring me back here every time I play this album I just finished the crash talk review.. I love Q.. but this was a great video & I just wanna say listening to crash talk & this one & seeing what you guys are saying about both.. crash talk isn’t BFLP but it’s really good song to song if you really listen too it he sounds like he’s trying not too “ crash “ with so much going on in his life.. I know you guys probably figured that out but keep up the good work. Love it. I’m an artist hopefully you guys will review my shit one day.. Preciate you guys
Really entertaining when you all enjoy an album and pop off about it. Even though I think the album has a lot of filler and I didn't really enjoy it, you're reviews are always great for multiple perspectives. Thanks for the videos guys!
YG's album was really good though. This album was pretty good, but not great. Besides, Fantano's scores are how much he enjoys an album, so it's not really a "this is objectively better" thing.
I knew yous would love this album! I love that yous are going crazy over that Eddie Kane transition I hav told so many people to go back to that and re listen coz it's so fucking dope! Easily my favourite moment on the album!
Yea Q said in a interview that he made john muir right after seeing Straight outta Compton n Ice cube inspired him so much that he freestyled the whole song with the Cube flow.
He kinda did actually. But he says he knows his place in the relationship, and he said the way all the fans quote Kanye's verse made him appreciate it.
But to be fair what did you expect on a song with Q on some "all my bitches independent bitches ........... that part, all my bitches flavour....... that part that part that part that part ayyyy" he brought the same energy Q brought
This album was unexpected. I didn't expect that Schoolboy would make something quite like this. It's an interesting listen, the production is pretty whimsical, with really distinctive standouts. And Q's delivery is still on-point, his mic presence, the aggression, and the new things he tries here is refreshing. He took a bunch of risks, you can tell he was trying to evolve as an artist here, you can see it with the many little nuances with this album. Right from the opening track, "TorcH" the album kicks off with this unique energy, I really enjoyed the roaring guitar riffs with that album, and Q went off. As did Anderson, he gives the track a new color with his feature. The second track "Lord Have Mercy" follows it up nicely too, the whole western renegade feel to it is nice, but it's a bit too short. "THat Part" grew on me, I especially like the way the beat starts off, Kanye's verse is actually comical. And the more grimy cuts are nice, like "Groovy Tony," "Ride Out," and "Dope Dealer" . "By Any Means" is one of my favorites, I like the desperation-feel in the beat, it has a nice sort of subtle intensity to it, the strings really help too, good atmosphere to the track overall. I enjoyed Q's melodic vocals on that track, and K Dot's "Lord of the Ring" vocals as Schoolboy calls them. "JoHn Muir" has a nice beat that you can cruise to, I like the instrumentation on it. "Big Body" is also one of my favorites. The beat has so much personality, the eccentric-nature and quirkiness of it, it's no wonder Tyler produced it. I'm actually not a big fan of Tyler, but I like how he's able to inject so much of his personality into almost anything he does. And the hook is so quotable "Man, them niggas aint hot, man them niggas aint cold" "Neva Change" is nice, Q's verses and his flow on that track is engaging. "Str8Ballin" has an epic-sort of feel. "Black THoughts" s/o to Kendrick's vocals again, it's my favorite of the two from him on the album, and the lyrics are nice too. It's a good deep-cut of the album. Yeah, "Blank Face" could have very well have been the close of the album, it feels like a closer. Overall, the album was dope, pretty good, some tracks may grow on me more with a few more listens, but the whole thing is interesting.
For some reason my favorite song off of the Grieslda LP "The Old Groove" gives me vibes of my love for this album. I've had that song on repeat on and off for the past 6 months and this is still by far not only my favorite Schoolboy Q album but my favorite album of 2016. 🔥🙏🏾
I agree with feefo. I aint really a fan of E-40, i don't get the hype. I feel like you need to like him just cause he's an OG and people will shit on you if you dont. E-40 ruined dope dealer for me. Great fuckin album though.
haha i actually think his verse made the joint, it was such a contrast to q's verse and metro's beat. plus his callbacks were hilarious. remarkable! *e-40 voice*
I'm so glad yall, and everybody is finally starting to see that Schoolboy is REAL!!!!! People have been looking at me crazy for years when I tell them Groovy Q was my favorite TDE member. I've felt like Schoolboy is the most creative member of the crew for the LONGEST TIME!
Check out the Rap Radar Podcast episode with Schoolboy q. He really opens up about the album. If you think you like it now you'll love it after listening to that podcast. He said he freestyle John Muir after watching Straight Outta Compton in theaters. He really captured that Ice Cube flow.

My opinion on the Kanye verse... It was ok ok ok ok ok ok.
I mean it wasn't great, but beggars can't be choosers bitch this ain't Chipotle.
W
+Dustin Langley w's on top of W
W
Clever
Y'all have to understand how to make a catchy hit single. Kanye's "ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok" line is something people will sing a long with.
This album was dope af, this to me is ScHoolboy Q's best work, easily my favorite project of the year.
yeah man
I agree
Most definitely
you aint listening
Is it better than Chance the rappers: Coloring Book? I'm really enjoying that right now and Blank Faces should be in my rotation in the next week or so, but I'm hoping people ain't over hyping it like.
Don't wanna be disappointed, because Oxymoron was dope to me.
that part remix is with black hippy. rock and kdot snapped
rock always be killing those features most underrated in tde
don't sleep on Q he ripped that last verse
Q's last verse was the best IMO
+Viktor Gustafsson exactly man that shyt is crazyyyy
+Viktor Gustafsson man I can only imagine a black hippy album
Ok, you can make fun of Kayne all you want but when Ok Ok Ok OK! came on I was hyped.
I disagree lol. Not much of a Kanye fan.
+Ryan Romero BEGGERS CANT BE CHOOSERS BITCH THIS AINT CHIPOTLE
+Ronald Steyn WALKING LIVING LEGEND MAN I FEEL LIKE KOBE!
fixxxer3456 I JUST LEFT THE STRIP CLUB GOT SOME GLITTER ON ME
potlovingchef14 nigga gtfoh you ruined it...
They got this review up sooner than I expected
exactly. normally they take almost a month.
Don't need much time to decide, it's a dope album for real. Simple as
yea i wasn't expecting this til like 2 weeks later or something
Keyser Soeze you dont know DEHH lmao
I thought this album was incredible I only didn't like 4 tracks. Potential album of the year but I just wanna hear what Isaiah bringing
what tracks?
thomasthe dankengine I didn't like Overtime, Big Body, By Any Means, and Dope Dealer. E-40 ruined it for me
+BLVCK LORD any means I didn't like either and same about e40 he just needs to stop. best song for me was probably tortH or joHn Muir wby
+thomasthe dankengine either JoHn Muir, Black THoughts or TorcH or Ride Out
same man, I Agree.
I'm gonna act like Fantano never made a review because every other human on earth thinks this album is flames
+Anthony Fantano yeah Fuck yourself
He's a Kendrick fanboy so he can't help it. This album is good, but Q should have cut the filler tracks.
just buy the album lol. Fantano was on dope that ain't green lol. He gave this top album a freaking 5 and yachty a 7. WHAT?! lol
+CIB8282 he had like 1 filler. overtime. the rest was on purpose. he wanted music just to cruise to on there as well. he didn't want it all serious. Remember, he's a party gangsta. Know ya wrong had meaning and he did it with a blues kind of tone in his voice
Nathan Ball ipioo
15:40 Lmao! Myke's face when he realized Tyler produced that track.
😂😂
Tht had me dyin!
Ahhaaha that shit kilt me cuhh
Kendrick=Voice of Reason in the Streets
ScHool Boy=Realist of The Streets
Ab-Soul=(obviously) The Soul of the Streets
Jay Rock=Street Ambassador
Roc Marciano = Best in the game
Q is also comedian of streets
Love it
"running with the rebels three-man weave with the lord and the devil" one of the hardest bars of 2016
It's crazy when you realize that schoolboy wouldn't have released this album if his passion for rap wasn't saved by building a studio in his house.
in a recent interview Q actually said he started rapping again simply because he missed being creative and wanted to start writing again
+treyvorak yes, but he built a home studio to stay out of the label pressure and allow that creativity to really flow
If Beezy gets excited while talking about an album then it's 🔥
+beezy430 lol great review
When's that 808s & Heartbreak review coming?
PS: review starts at 1:43
you welcome
+Dead End Hip Hop lmfoa
+Dead End Hip Hop lmao
Thanks, bruh.
My nigga

Schoolboy got AOTY so far. Still waiting for that new Ab-Soul and Isaiah shit. TDE is killing it and they're gonna kepp on killing it till they don't care anymore.
Ab soul been trash since 2013 he needs to redeem himself for me to start giving a fuck about him again
Tonedeff got AOTY
+Graham Gunderson ab soul is not trash. He's had one subpar album. Did you not hear his guest verse on vice city and tHat part remix ? He killed those verses
+Abstract Serrato below average=trash
i swear 1 sub-par album = artist is trash today smh. these days collectively wasnt great,but it still had some good joints on there. i hate how niggas are so quick to rip soulo to shreds now. reminds me of when lupe dropped laser,fickle ass fans
This review made my heart so happy. Been a diehard Q fan since habits & I agree he's just continued to get better & better. I cannot wait for his next project. Rumor is there'll be another this year & IM SO EXCITEDDDD
I'm a like a kid getting a new toy when you guys release a video, I'm jumpin around and shit all excited LMAO
W
I feel you man, same here.
You're a big man uno.
lol
I agree, Kanye's verse is just OK OK OK OK!
But beggars can't be choosers, bitch this ain't Chipotle!
TDE is killing it! I can't wait for Ab-Soul's album. Awesome interview guys.
15:40 That look when you found out that Tyler, The Creator produced a track on Blank Face
This has to be my favorite review on DEHH. 4 months later and this is exactly how I feel whenever I put this album on. This is probably the hardest album I've heard front to back.
Deadass. He thought it was gonna be some spooky concept album so now the whole project is wack just because it doesn't have a concept.
alex jegede this is one album that gets better and better as it progresses. I wish it had won Best Rap Album Grammy
GET ROD ON THE PHOOOONE

+Jake Boss all morning with the mixed dashboards triple digits

Kanye part is the livest at a concert I swear lol
It's great at a party too.
In one of Q's interviews he was talking about that and was like at first he was worried and didn't understand it. But then he got it when he noticed how well it worked at the concerts he was doing leading up to the album release date. Kanye really knows how to think about what would translate well for performances and parties.
+kooleyBear true I didn't think of it that way. I can definitely see people getting hyped to that verse at a concert.
Sebastian Lopez Yeah. When i first heard it I felt it was not the best verse he could have done but it was catchy and then hearing Q talk about it helped it make more sense. And with TLOP I can see Ye still wanting to make lyrics where he is having fun and not trying to be to deep and this was a great chance as Q wanted to have a fun song on the album.
True bruh
The hook on JoHn Muir had my face so scrunched up I almost passed out
I loved this album. like Kendrick said tde is definitely the Mafia of the west
agreed
True las coulda sworn it said something different
that john mayer joint

Five heads are better than one bald head.

We all saw that bs fantano vid, commented how dumb he is, then came to this to comment how right these guys are, because it's facts.
@@ThomasW215PHL Shut the fuck up you dumb fuck.
@@ThomasW215PHL Wow, someone sure can't handle different opinions. Try growing up kid, it will help you in life.
Well god damn lmao, you boys seem to have struck the same chord that I struck when I was two years younger. Thankyou for your lesson on how to properly and respectively act
wHats funny is He freestyle tHe entire JoHn Muir song including tHe Hook
bruH tHe second verse is fire af 🔥🔥

The hook was my favorite part of the song
You ain't Q quit that lame uppercase H shit

😂😂😂
Real shit.
bruh you aren't lying
ScHoolboy Q Is the Marshawn Lynch of Hip Hop. Straight In ya face #BeastMode
word
that’s a great comparison
So glad they got this sooner than I expected. Ok now we need to give them an album to review just to keep them busy.
Let's give them Joey Purp - IIIDrops
the difference in quality between the oxymoron review video and this one is crazy... just shows how y'all grew exponentially. salute
They have a totally different viewpoint than Anthony Fantano haha
I completely agree.
Their review is a lot better
Well Anthony is annoying as fuck and his reviews are always trash lol
This ^^ Anthony is a perfect example of when your taking a test and you dont know the answers, but your eloquent enough to make it "seem" like you know what your talking about lool
22gopher22 on top of that he admits he's not a hip hop head, and rarely likes good hip hop. Granted everyone ears are different but I like soul music but I. Mainly. Listen to hip hop so I'm. Not going to review soul because it's not my main genre so my review will be slated
3 years later and this album has aged beautifully
5 years later and this shit is still fire
Yup, 2022 july
Ive listen to this about 5 times, Id say I like about 9 out of 17 tracks, I dont think I enjoyed this nearly as much as
Oxymoron and Habits & Contradictions, those projects were amazing,
Ive listened to it about 7/8 times, its good, I want to love it as much as you guys, but I dont love it
maybe I'll listen to it more tho, to see if I can digest it further, dope review tho guys at DEHH, thanks for the early access on Patreon
Which tracks did you not like?
Big body and Overtime were the only ones that didn't really have replay value.
I agree 100%
But Eddie Kane tho... I love playing that part so much. For every 1 listen of this album, I'll probably repeat that part atleast 6-7 times. I'm so in love with the instrumentation on that song. Whew...
yh Eddie Kane is fire,
my faves are;
Groovy Tony/Eddie Kane, Ride Out, TorcH, By Any Means, Dope Dealer, Blank Face, Tookie Knows II and THat Part grew on me
Man I love when they all are loving one project together in the review, cos they all just vibe off each other's opinions. This was really great to watch.
Groovy Tony, That Part and Neva Change were dope AF
Ab-Soul album next.Then hopefully Isaiah Rashad!
i aint gunna lie the only shit i heard from ab soul was his feat with chance.and after that"lemme put my mouth were u potty" verse i never looked into his music lol
courtney harris listen to his "Control System" album and I promise you that you will not be disappointed!
+MH DOOM ight i know where ta find ya after lol
+courtney harris Yeah, give me your opinion after your listening session!
Control System is incredible. I'm sure you'll enjoy and be stoked for his upcoming album.
yall need to get ya mans at theneedledrop
You've got me pumped to give this a listen. These reviews never lead me astray. Vince Staples and Elzhi have become some of my favorites after your reviews.
After 4 years I finally realize why this album is so good. I love it so much now.
I still come back to this review cuz i jusr love how y'all geeked out over the album just as much as I did when it came out
This review bumps in the whip 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Thanks for the review. Glad you enjoy it
I hope Q realizes how fucking great and amazing of an album he put out Like legit on of my favorite albums start to end
I need to leave a huge thank you to you guys. You have been putting out quality reviews for years. So much goes into listening to an album and the fact you guys are able to put out so much is incredible.
About Blank Face LP: For those of you who are on the fence about this album, a suggestion I have is listen to this at night. I thought the album was good when I first listened to it but I didn't think it was all that. For some reason when I listened to it at night for a second time it clicked and now I love this album
Feefo fan club:
#BUMP IN DA WHIP
I'm enjoying the hell out of this project, glad to see a review by some guys who feel the same!
The beginning of the video killed me, kinge still don't like 808's and Heartbreak lmao but I'm glad you guys like this album, I love it too, TDE are on top
Great review my negus. The thing about Needle drop is he can't say this album wasn't made for him...everything ain't for everybody. Real Schoolboy fans should LOVE this joint!
My favorite album of the year, exceeded my expectations.
Your reviews never fail to make me happy af, especially with this one. Keep it up man!
Can we talk about Traffic tho? That dude's voice is nuts.
Schoolboy Q just kicked down the door and sat on the couch of my top 5 rappers today. This is his best work to date. Him and KembeX got me replaying like crazy!
ScHoolboy Q delivered. 8/10
Since you are on a West Coast roll, are you reviewing Snoop Dogg's Coolaid?
God...that'll be a fun review
R Torres I hope they like some of it at least. I love it. Songs like Super Crip, Coolaid Man, Oh Na Na are classic Snoop g-funk songs.
Ocean Sage Honestly, Super Crip was the only song I fucked with and that was just because of the beat. Like for real though, the first track?!?! I was crying man lmao. That track had me dying
R Torres I thought it was a fun return to gangsta Snoop. In addition to the previously mentioned 3 songs, I also like My Carz, Two or More, Feel About Snoop, Double Tap, Revolution, and What If. Snoop's been killing his features too recently with Dr. Dre, De La Soul, J Dilla.
Ocean Sage Features yes. He should just stick to those in my opinion.
Thank you this is my Album Of The Year so far...I can pull some type of enjoyment out of every track. I kinda saw this coming considering every ScHoolboy verse has been fire (especially Let It Bang with Ferg) this album is crazy.
fav album of 2016 and overtime is just like radio rap but i still like it
I got a big ass Kol-Aid smiling listening to your reviews man lol. I'm glad y'all enjoyed this project just as much as I did, going to give it like a 4th listen now.
Fantano is buggin man this was easily an 8
+johnkeem103 L for using L
Fantano is one of the most stuck up people i have ever witnessed on the internet or in person. like that guy really is a douche. he studies music so he thinks he knows everything, but he very clearly lacks a good hiphop/rap ear
Most of you dumb ass kids can't even counter any of Anthony's points
I can't watch Fantano reviews because he's just so overly condescending while he's reviewing a project. Even with shit he likes he still acts overly condescending
+Nathaniel you mean you can't understand his big words ? Lmfao

The second track was my favorite I wish it was longer
Really entertaining when you all enjoy an album and pop off about it. Even though I think the album has a lot of filler and I didn't really enjoy it, you're reviews are always great for multiple perspectives. Thanks for the videos guys!
This is miles better than Fucktano's review
no shit , that idiot only gave it a 5 but gave YG's album a 8 fam
YG's album was really good though. This album was pretty good, but not great. Besides, Fantano's scores are how much he enjoys an album, so it's not really a "this is objectively better" thing.
+Jeb Kush no, but this is just a better more in depth review
sammy boy sour soul is my shit and he gave that a bad review.
BEEZY that beat at 10:23 did you sample a soundtrack from a game called 'bully'?
15:41 when Myke finds out Tyler the Creator produced Big Body lmao
Been waiting on this! Can't wait to hear what u guys think I loved this album more than oxy! Lunch break set!
I knew yous would love this album! I love that yous are going crazy over that Eddie Kane transition I hav told so many people to go back to that and re listen coz it's so fucking dope! Easily my favourite moment on the album!
Is it just me or did anyone else get an Ice Cube AmeriKKKas Most Wanted Vibe from this?
Yes! That grungy aggressive rap. This album just felt straight grimy in a way
Yea Q said in a interview that he made john muir right after seeing Straight outta Compton n Ice cube inspired him so much that he freestyled the whole song with the Cube flow.
It make sense Black Hippy are the new N.W.A.
Schoolboy Q= Ice Cube
Ab-Soul= Eazy-E
Jay Rock= MC Ren
Kendrick Lamar= Dr. Dre
Marcus Dupree Jones I always saw Kendrick as Easy E
Marcus Dupree Jones I personally think there is no new NWA
Man this was one of the best reviews ever .thank you guys and i agree, school boy delivered!...
I had to pause this review to listen to the album again lmao, so fucking good
"Never ever...ever ever get caught tellin on my niggas!"
The way he said this...like....This part in the album just gets me buzzin everytime
LOOOL i know Q admires Knaye but damn i would have felt disrespected with that trash ye verse. And im a huge ye stan.
Keyser Soeze that bitch aint really bad she a cat fish phew!!! like that line
+Keyser Soeze Prob since he sounded like he was just freestyling which he prob was. I liked it
Right?
He kinda did actually. But he says he knows his place in the relationship, and he said the way all the fans quote Kanye's verse made him appreciate it.
But to be fair what did you expect on a song with Q on some "all my bitches independent bitches ........... that part, all my bitches flavour....... that part that part that part that part ayyyy" he brought the same energy Q brought
thank y'all for the dope review. keep doing it!! shoutouts from Romania
Ride out is by far the best track on this album imo
woooo been a long time since I've seen yall this fired up and passionate! Glad it's cuz a Q album. Piece
PATREON GANG IN THE BUILDING

As did Anderson, he gives the track a new color with his feature. The second track "Lord Have Mercy" follows it up nicely too, the whole western renegade feel to it is nice, but it's a bit too short.
"THat Part" grew on me, I especially like the way the beat starts off, Kanye's verse is actually comical. And the more grimy cuts are nice, like "Groovy Tony," "Ride Out," and "Dope Dealer" . "By Any Means" is one of my favorites, I like the desperation-feel in the beat, it has a nice sort of subtle intensity to it, the strings really help too, good atmosphere to the track overall. I enjoyed Q's melodic vocals on that track, and K Dot's "Lord of the Ring" vocals as Schoolboy calls them. "JoHn Muir" has a nice beat that you can cruise to, I like the instrumentation on it.
"Big Body" is also one of my favorites. The beat has so much personality, the eccentric-nature and quirkiness of it, it's no wonder Tyler produced it. I'm actually not a big fan of Tyler, but I like how he's able to inject so much of his personality into almost anything he does. And the hook is so quotable "Man, them niggas aint hot, man them niggas aint cold" "Neva Change" is nice, Q's verses and his flow on that track is engaging. "Str8Ballin" has an epic-sort of feel. "Black THoughts" s/o to Kendrick's vocals again, it's my favorite of the two from him on the album, and the lyrics are nice too. It's a good deep-cut of the album. Yeah, "Blank Face" could have very well have been the close of the album, it feels like a closer. Overall, the album was dope, pretty good, some tracks may grow on me more with a few more listens, but the whole thing is interesting.
Lol damn nobody ever gives Southside credit for the part he played in producing Dope Dealer. Do people just not hear the tag in the beginning?
Man, I knew I wasn't crazy, this record was incredible. Great review, guys.
How old is Kinge? He speaks the way I did when I learned that cursing was cool, like the 6th grade.
Yall deserve much more than 100k subscribers, love and blessings to ya brothers

Ken Admits To Sometimes Eatin Da Booty |Dead End Hip Hop Confessions
One of the dopest albums... ever.
One of my albums of the decade.
_"F---ing BEAUTIFUL project!!!"_
blank face should've won best rap album, way better than coloring book.
For some reason my favorite song off of the Grieslda LP "The Old Groove" gives me vibes of my love for this album. I've had that song on repeat on and off for the past 6 months and this is still by far not only my favorite Schoolboy Q album but my favorite album of 2016. 🔥🙏🏾
John Muir easily best thing on this album hands down, instant classic. Whatever you want worst track contender.
felt like a gunit track.solid shit.
I swear I keep tellin folks John Muir got longevity. Too smooth
loveddd john muir man raw as fuck
that's my favorite too, the chorus alone is too amazing it honestly makes me feel like I'm dreaming
WHateva U Want kinda grew on me, my least favorite is Overtime
the 3 shortfilm/music videos he released before the album came out were badass too!
ok! ok! ok! ok! ok! ok!!!
and the worst verse in rap history goes too...
+Isac asap ant on bath salts
KORRBBIN ThE KiLlEr
kanye from yeezus onward is worse than young thug, there I said it
u need to cut it good sir, that is blasphemous to Kanye West
+Isac you dumb as hell lol
I'm with you guys. I love this album. The production is crazy.
I agree with feefo. I aint really a fan of E-40, i don't get the hype. I feel like you need to like him just cause he's an OG and people will shit on you if you dont. E-40 ruined dope dealer for me. Great fuckin album though.
It's really just because he's a legend in the Bay. He hasn't put out a solid project or verse in over a decade
Agreed. I wish Pusha T or Snoop Dogg would have been the featured verse on Dope Dealer instead of E-40.
I can handle a verse from jada but it gets too much after that
Same, his voice doesn't sit right with me. Shit sound way too damn goofy to me, but he's cool.
haha i actually think his verse made the joint, it was such a contrast to q's verse and metro's beat. plus his callbacks were hilarious. remarkable! *e-40 voice*
ScHoolboy outdid himself no doubt. subbed
That Kanye verse was lowkey hard as shit
I've really been sleeping on ScHoolboy Q, I gotta check him out, thanks DEHH!
I bought the signed CD and all, but the mp3 was the lowest quality shit i swear
I'm so glad yall, and everybody is finally starting to see that Schoolboy is REAL!!!!! People have been looking at me crazy for years when I tell them Groovy Q was my favorite TDE member. I've felt like Schoolboy is the most creative member of the crew for the LONGEST TIME!
Not really feeling it. Had some nice tracks to pick out but mostly average.
Check out the Rap Radar Podcast episode with Schoolboy q. He really opens up about the album. If you think you like it now you'll love it after listening to that podcast. He said he freestyle John Muir after watching Straight Outta Compton in theaters. He really captured that Ice Cube flow.
I might be the only nigga who is anticipating sza album
No, several people and me waiting for it too.
No, her feature was beautiful.
+Shawn Orjiakor I said that cause everyones talking about isaiah and ab soul everyone in tde is dope but I think this sza album will be a classic
TheCoww0 True
Her first album was dope and I bet her new one will be waaaay better.
Ken lost all credibility when he said he Kanye's verse was good lol
It was good at concerts at the time.
