Blue Lips

'BLUE LIPS' comes five years after 'CrasH Talk' and on the heels of the tenth anniversary of Q's iconic and critically acclaimed album, 'Oxymoron. Q says, 'BLUE LIPS' is about speechlessness - it was made in a period of self-reflection that at first yielded more questions than answers. There are also the connotations of the colour itself: the sadness it can imply, but also the openness of blue skies. But more than anything, Q's sixth studio album, the most focused and sonically adventurous to date, is about perseverance in the face of adversity. Standing strong at 18 tracks long, 'BLUE LIPS' is an instant classic with venerable hard hitting anthems like 'Pop' (featuring rapper Rico Nasty), 'Yeern 101' and 'Pig Feet' while also punctuated with more introspective and languid tracks like 'Foux', 'Lost Times' or 'Cooties'.
