Born in Germany to a pair of military parents, ScHoolboy Q spent the first
three years of his life in Texas before his family eventually settled in Los
Angeles. While nodding to East Coast icons such as The Notorious B.I.G. and Nas
as his biggest influences, the rapper’s voice remains unmistakably imbued with
the L.A. spirit.
In 2009, ScHoolboy Q joined Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock and Ab-Soul as the latest
addition to Top Dog Entertainment’s burgeoning roster. After releasing a series
of stellar mixtapes and two acclaimed studio albums – Setbacks and Habits & Contradictions– the rapper made his major label debut with Oxymoron,
which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Charts and achieved platinum status after
selling more than a million units.
Now, ScHoolboy Q returns with Blank
Face (out now through Interscope/Universal). His most ambitious
work to date, the record brings together a formidable cast of collaborators,
including Kanye West, Vince Staples, Miguel, Anderson .Paak, Swizz Beats and
Jadakiss. Across its 17 tracks, ScHoolboy Q is as razor-sharp as ever, shaping Blank Face into a
sprawling, rhapsodic epic.
