Last night, ScHoolboy Q had two consecutively sold out shows at S.O.B.’s in New York City, during which he performed “Yay Yay,” the leading single from his forthcoming debut album OxyMoron. The Los Angeles rapper performed the cut in the midst of more familiar songs like “Nightmare On Figg St.” and the Mike Will Made […]
The dichotomy of the TDE clique is one of the main contributing factors to their success. Kendrick Lamar’s common man sensibilities drove GKMC towards platinum status, and now the Los Angeles label follows up with the more street savvy ScHoolboy Q. The “Hands On The Wheel” rapper recently sat down with The Breakfast Club to discuss his forthcoming album […]
Hip-Hop fans have been teased for years by standout rappers claiming to clique up and form a group. The latest rising star to promise such a pairing is Top Dawg Entertainment’s ScHoolboy Q, who suggests he, Danny Brown, A$AP Rocky and fellow TDE foot soldier Ab-Soul might become a supergroup. Is it Christmas already?
Top Dawg Entertainent MC ScHoolboy Q helps you start your weekend right by dropping a new tune called “Yay Yay.” The song serves as the first single from his forthcoming new album, Oxmyoron.

Last summer, VICE’s Noisey coordinated a sit down between the equally outspoken A$AP Rocky and Danny Brown that went viral due to their candid conversation. Out of an array of quotables said during their chat, one referring to a fantasy about actress, comedian and talk show host Kathy Griffin made its way into a number of news sources. […]
Schoolboy Q had a little fun during an interview with Jack Thriller while taking some down time from touring with A$AP Rocky and Danny Brown.
A$AP Rocky stopped by L.A.’s Power 106 radio station last week, and gave an interesting comparison for Kendrick Lamar and the Top Dawg Entertainment crew. During an interview with on-air personality Yesi Ortiz, Rocky declared that— null of dropping a collaborative album (but it’s coming)— TDE is the new version of N.W.A. “They are the new […]
The Black Hippy click remixes another track off of good kid, m.A.A.d. city. This time, Puffy, Soulo, Rock and K. Dot go in on the first single off of the album, “The Recipe.”
One of the bonus tracks on Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d. city is the remix to his second single, “Swimming Pools (Drank).” Nitpicking fans of the album, which by all accounts has lived up to the hype, had said that a lack of Black Hippy members on the album was a disappointment.
