Jan 21, 2016 tbh h&nc isn't bad, but oxymoron was pure garbage, I don't think tde really want to drop another one of his project lol
Jan 21, 2016 Schoolboy Q wished he could make something better than Oxymoron, because it truely is the worst tde project
Jan 21, 2016 I feel you though. Despite the influences, great personality, and ear for beats, I can't say I'm a fan of Q or this album though. Many songs feel like they fade away to my ears with typical party hype stuff or generic gangsta material. Songs like Man of the Year may have great beats but it feels like I'm listening to hook-hook-hook-hook-hook with no verses and it similarly fades away while the weird Los Awesome really doesn't work to my ears. As far as the whole TDE thing goes (as if I could get away without touching on this), the more time goes by, the more it seems that Ab-Soul and Kendrick Lamar are the only ones to be checking out while the rest are just there somewhere in deep space with occasional good guest feature verses.
Jan 21, 2016 both underwhelming, but control system > anything Q will ever release. CS was lowkey the best album of 2012.
Jan 21, 2016 that's not really realistic to say considering Q has got a lot better and continues to get better. Both of their subject matters are different, so it's a matter of preference. I thought Control System was ok, no way best album of 2012.
Jan 21, 2016 Got 2 absoul projects in my top 3 tde projects (control system, TPAB, longterm).. fairs to say ab soul might be my favorite
