Q also schools (no pun intended) n***as on how to move on the song, reminding us all what prioritizing the right things looks like. “CrasH” features a soulful, yet heavy-hitting instrumental that provokes Q to bring out a version of himself that is motivated to succeed, provide for his family and overcome obstacles. On the real, I can see it being a song that gets you in your feelings, while also being a song you would want to hear in the club. I think “CrasH” is the perfect blend between gritty and introspective. ScHoolboy Q is actually spitting hard on this joint! When you combine their two styles together, along with the hard-hitting/gentle instrumental they rap/sing over, you get a catchy/pleasurable banger that reminds you how playa these rappers can be when they feel like being. “Chopstix” features a very melodic contribution by featured guest Travis Scott, and a pretty exuberant performance by ScHoolboy Q. Slept on fact: ScHoolboy Q’s gangsta tracks are fire, but his commercial ones might be even better! Don’t you love “Studio,” “Collard Greens” and “THat Part?” Well, I think “CHopstix” is in the same lane as those three, which means ScHoolboy has just gone 4/4.
I eat my Chinese with forks, but I can f**k with Chopsticks for a day. It’s always a pleasure hearing UK artists unite with US artists on songs (Is that joke too soon?). Personally, I believe he fits in perfectly with what the rest of the song had to offer, even if ICE says he doesn’t. Luckily for us, that evil side of Q allows him to bring out a catchy hook, reckless/savage bars, and an aggressive delivery that will remind you that his South Central roots are the real deal.Ģ1 Savage is featured on “Floating,” and on his contributions, he reminds individuals why his name has ‘Savage’ in it by dropping this heinous/braggadocios/immoral ass verse that never lets up in coldness. ScHoolBoy Q is gassed up on “Floating.” In my opinion, the beat took him there, as it boasts this bass boomin’/wicked sound to it that literally forces the TDE rapper’s evil side to come out. Personally, I think the song tugs at your heart, only letting go when you realize that Q finally found a drug that let him block his problems out at the conclusion of his verse, or when Cudi gets to do some humming at the very end. Powered by this tumultuous/unorthodox instrumental, ScHoolboy Q brings out his introspective side in “Dangerous,” beating himself up about mistakes he’s made in the past. While “Dangerous” is short, it succeeds in reminding the world that ScHoolboy Q still has demons he’s battling - an aspect that was talked about heavily on “OXYMORON.” Q is comfortable across CrasH Talk regardless, declaring himself so on “Attention”, where after rattling off the names of rap heroes who have given him props-along with friends and family who’ve had an influence on him-he declares, “I can easily tell my story now and climb from this moment.ScHoolboy Q season is here, folks! After a three year hiatus, the “Blankface” Rapper has decided to release “CrasH Talk” - A fourteen track project that has some really good guest features, legit club bangers, and its fair-share of mobbin’ ass music. Moments like “Numb Numb Juice” and “5200”, where the MC is at his most ornery, sound almost cathartic in comparison. Q’s flow is naturally aggressive, and it can be hard for him to sand down that edge, even when daydreaming about building a future with a significant other on “Drunk”. The Los Angeles MC uses his gruff and impassioned delivery to paint pictures of the street life he grew up in (“Tales”), his purview as a Black man in America (“Black Folk”) and his adventures in courtship (“CHopstix”, “Lies”), while doubling down on the G’d-up superhero persona he’s embodied since the very beginning (“Gang Gang”, “Die Wit Em”). Rather than chasing the dragon of another club-burning smash, however, CrasH Talk is Q embracing his abilities as a storyteller. ScHoolboy Q allowed three years to pass between the release of Blank Face LP and his fifth LP, CrasH Talk-and if it didn’t feel quite that long to fans, he has the enduring power of “THat Part” to thank for it.
