Now why in the world this school boy Q put up this picture with Jay-Z, which you can see on Analytic Dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio? Why did school boy Q put up this picture with Jay-Z knowing that this man wasn't going to be on the album? This man posted this picture with Jay-Z and said, well, captioned it, Hove, quote, nah, bra, run that back. And then school boy Q said, quote, okay, cool. shout out to i am still punch this friday march first blue lips now if that's not the most

p r stunt type of image and message i've ever seen that i don't know what it is this is more of like when a movie showcase something and it's not even in the movie like like at this point that's false advertisement like should i sue schoolboy q aka t d well slash t die for the blue lips album because I don't see Jay-Z nowhere on this album. I mean, I don't know if he's like wanting them hidden features, but I don't see it anywhere. And he put up a whole picture making it seem like he had a Jay-Z feature. Anyways, so School Boy Q has an album titled Blue Lips out now on all DSPs.

And basically, it's 56 minutes long, 18 songs, and features, uh, Rico nasty. I think that's the biggest feature on there. But anyways, I'll be remiss not to bring up that Kendrick Lamar announces departure from Top Dog Entertainment on August 20th, 2021. Now, now, now, why are you doing that to this man? Well, there's a reason why TD is now starting to give us projects with their, uh, with their artists, because I believe if we've looked at the roster, the only superstar technically left on the roster is Siza i believe because of course Kendrick lamar left like i just said like hold on me bring this back up so he revealed well

kensi Lamar revealed all the way back in 2021 that he was in the process of creating his final album for the label which behind the scenes everybody was saying that's why i took so long for kentrick lamar to put out this album because he was beefing with the label trying to get off so once the mr moreall and the big steppers came out made 13th, 2022, it officially marked the end of his long-standing relationship with TDE. So now, I've pulled up to TDE roster. And even though it's not like an exhaustive list, we have schoolboy Q, sir, Cal Banks, Ray Vaughn.

So I don't think Sizz is on this. I don't know why I thought Sizz was on his label. Maybe I'm thinking of Sama Walker. Okay, Siza is an artist under Top Dog Entertainment. I was thinking I was like, hold on now. But yeah, so Sizz is still. on that label and basically I'm not going to lie to you. Y'all just heard

the names I just list off on TDE. No disrespect to y'all but Siza by far in the way is just LeBron James that whole team, that whole organization so at this point I know Kendrick left and he's never coming back but you still have Siza so I would do

anything and everything you have to do to keep her but this segment which you probably can't tell at this point but it is about school boy Q so let's get back into the album right obviously he's one of the premier artists on top dog entertainment which is why he's putting this out in the first quarter because the marketing dollars are probably going to be put behind him in a way that makes him seem larger in the life not like in a fabric well yeah kind of in a fabricated way

but obviously you have to have core fans to some extent so despite hence at his release all the way back to 2020 it took a lot for now us getting an actual project from this man so he's now not exaggerating. He's actually given us a whole project. And in his press appearances, he basically said that he emphasized, um, he, no, he emphasized not viewing it as a competitive sport, but rather as a reflection of life experiences, which honestly is a pretty good take on hip hop, but it's just ultimately not true. Some of the biggest press built up on hip hop is because of beef and drama. Is it the most positive tool? ever as far as the utilization of it in hip hop no but that's just the world we live in i mean biggie and teupac wouldn't be as big as they are today if they wasn't beefing j z wouldn't be as big as he was if he wasn't beefing with naz i know a lot of people say oh no that's not true but think of all the people j z beef with and there's a lot of them drake i mean i think back to back literally was the biggest turning point of drake's career to let other rappers know if you want to get into

the ring and compete with Drake is not going to go as easy as you think so hip hop is definitely built off competition and it's definitely one of the more context sports and music genres like if it was a if hip hop was a sport i would say it was m mma because people have you know i'm not trying to you know get nobody indicted or anything you know shout out to young thug hopefully he gets out but you know light a lot of bloodshed just spilled over this sport so um maybe that was too much of a light sport to compare it to probably something else where people actually die but anyways um school boy cue obviously you know is taking a more positive approach to this whole genre and it's saying that it should be looked at as a reflection of life experiences which definitely should be the case

i mean i think andre 3 000 came out one time and said what he's going to rap about his colonoscopy talking about how he's too old to rap which is just the biggest discredit to his pen I think I've ever seen the lyricist like as far as discrediting your pen

Andre 3,000 did the biggest disservice to his pen I think I've ever heard the lyricist like the whole disservice to his pen was so disrespectful that you would have thought a hater was speaking to Andre 3,000

but it was actually Andre 3000 saying that about himself so you're never too old to rap but as far as life experiences if you don't want to share them that's also okay but joan had to come out say oh i'm too old like you're never too old to stop experiencing life i mean unless you anyways uh school boy cue new album blue lips give it a listen i i may be given to listen i probably won't but um you know at least i reported on it right you know so i get to keep my rap card i guess but anyways uh click my link tree in my bio let me know what my social media's what do you think about school boy cue just pulling a whole play on us just

straight up bamboozling uh hoodwinking us into thinking j z was going to be on the album with this whole instagram post and it ended up not being on the album at all and will you be giving this album blue lips a listen
