ScHoolboy Q is headed back out on the road, and in an added surprise for fans, the new shows will include some brand new songs.
In a post to social media this week, the TDE rapper announced the limited-date Blue Lips! Got New Songs… Tour, which kicks off stateside in January and will make its way to Europe before wrapping the following month.
“Blue lips…new songs and new sHows,” Q added in his caption, which could potentially be hinting at a deluxe version of his Blue Lips album from earlier this year.
Check out the full list of dates below. Tickets go on sale this Friday (November 22).
Back in September, ScHoolboy Q teased fans with new music after releasing a number of music videos from Blue Lips.
The TDE rapper’s video for “Nunu” features two snippets of unreleased tracks — one at the beginning of the clip and another towards the end.
The first, a mellow, jazzy track seemingly called “Bittersweet,” finds Q rapping introspectively: “N-ggas get to reminiscing when that new shit ain’t really, really hittin’/ Different day, same clock, on the rocks, WiFi was getting minutes/ Mama text me, she was proud of me/ I ain’t hit her back ’cause I ain’t have the words.”
The second, which is significantly longer and takes up most of the latter half of the video, again features live instrumentation but with a heavier rock flavor.
Q also released a video for Blue Lips standout “THank god 4 me” which has a psychedelic vibe as it blends imagery related to law enforcement with normal Los Angeles life.
An additional visual was released for The Alchemist-produced “Lost Times” that reimagines classic Looney Tunes cartoons but with various characters’ skin colors darkened to appear Black.
Any new song from Q would follow the recently-released Alchemist collaboration “Ferraris in the Rain,” which also features a verse from the storied producer.
The track appears on Alchemist’s new album The Genuine Article which was released on September 20 and also contains appearances from Conway The Machine, Action Bronson and Mobb Deep’s Havoc, among others.
Q also appeared on Rome Streetz and Daringer’s “Sage” in September from the Griselda affiliates’ joint album Hatton Garden Holdup.
