Live Review: LISTEN: Schoolboy Q 'Man Of The Year'

29 November 2013 | 12:32 am | Nick Luke

TDE member Schoolboy Q releases new track entitled 'Man Of The Year'.

One of TOP DAWG ENTERTAINMENT's top dogs (see what I did there?) SCHOOLBOY Q has released a brand new track entitled 'Man Of The Year', and with a solid run of touring, and an almost constant stream of new single material coming from this rapper, it's easy to agree with him about taking the fictitious title of 'Man Of The Year'.

Sampling CHROMATICS' experimental synthpop track 'Cherry' the tune 'Man Of The Year' is surrounded in a dense and hazy soundscape, laden with trance-like synth leads and strings tied together with a solid and unrelenting trap beat.

As stories surround SCHOOLBOY Q reportedly attempting to kick his codeine addiction throughout this year, this track feels a whole lot more personal than certain material that existed on his prior album 'Habits & Contradictions'.

With news of his upcoming album 'Oxymoron' generating more hype than ever, whether this track makes the cut or not, there's one thing you can do for sure - grab your bucket hat and vibe out to this track.
