2014 nappyafro Awards: Albums of the Year

Oxymoron

10. ScHoolboy Q – Oxymoron
Released: February 25, 2014 ~ Reviewed: February 25, 2014 (Rated 4 out of 5 Stars)

ScHoolboy Q’s Oxymoron is more of a street album than a concept album. If you listened for Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d city, then maybe you were somewhat lost. This is a completely different animal and Q delivers for the most part.

The features on here are very well placed, and they deliver as well. It’s easy to criticize if you’ve never listened to Q before. If you know what you’re in for then you’ll enjoy this joint. People who enjoy gettin’ hyped up, partying, and smoking weed will love this album. If you came looking for some lyrical miracles then this isn’t really for you unless you can get used to trunk shaking. However, this album will make you think. For those who are uneducated as far as the street life goes, this could be an eye opener. Fans will be shocked at some point of the beat selection, but one can’t be too upset with it. OVERALL this is a very solid album. – Blog$quiat
