Schoolboy Q topped the Billboard 200 with Oxymoron (2014), his major label debut, and has earned five Grammy nominations across a career at Top Dawg Entertainment. The Los Angeles rapper, born Quincy Hanley, began recording in 2007 and built a local following with the mixtapes Schoolboy Turned Hustla and Gangsta & Soul before signing with TDE, where he formed the group Black Hippy with Kendrick Lamar, Jay Rock and Ab-Soul. His independent albums Setbacks (2011) and Habits & Contradictions (2012) won strong reviews, and after signing with Interscope he delivered Oxymoron with the hits "Collard Greens," featuring Kendrick Lamar, and "Studio," featuring BJ the Chicago Kid. He also scored as a guest on Macklemore and Ryan Lewis's "White Walls" and Tinashe's "2 On." Blank Face LP (2016) earned a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album, and CrasH Talk followed in 2019. His acclaimed Blue Lips (2024) showed a more experimental side, and Thank Que arrived in 2026. An avid golfer as well as a rapper, he brings gritty storytelling, distinctive ad-libs and a commanding stage presence to his shows.
