    I'll say it again in the re-upload for solidarity. This album was freaking amazing to me. It combines the absurdness and high production I loved from Oxymoron with what Q has learned good and bad from his records afterwards. Songs like Pop and Back n Love have this aggression or sinister feel to them that I really adore. While other tracks like Blueslides and Ohio are pristine jazz rap. I especially love the sentiments of Blueslides sonically and what it represents lyrically. Especially as a little tribute to Mac. Every time I listen to this album I love it more and more. It's so fun yet has some really cool experiments.

Funny Guy is calm, Pop is hype, THank God 4 Me is both, Blue Slides is calm, Yeern 101 is hype, Love Birds is both, etc. It’s a very “bipolar” album for lack of better words.

    Memes aside, Oxymoron still outshines this (albeit art needs to stand the test of time so we will see How I feel in a few years), but I still like this better than Crash Talk. Blank face was so fire as well, I remember the year it dropped and watching the John Muir music video. I miss the later 2010’s I know that’s so weird to say it was so recent. Time flies.

    PERFECT REVIEW! I'm a fan of ScHoolboy Q's music and I couldn't fully figure out what was lacking for me on Blue Lips. I also felt like (although the project is daring and possibly more creative than all of his previous albums) made it hard for me to enjoy most tracks with short run times and too many beat changes. 7 out of 10 is where I rate this one as well. Even on certain days, it feels like a 5 out of 10 or 6 out of 10 due to the many shifts in moods. So thanks for breaking this whole album down. Good album but definitely not his best in my opinion. Blank Face is still his greatest project!!

    I really enjoy listening to this album. 'First' specifically, but a few others gave me hints of Pink Floyd which I was not expecting. The incorporation of jazz and melody was well executed. I can get lost listening to some of these songs. I also think any moments of reflection and self thought in artists who have had the level of sustainable success that Q has had, are so valuable and relatable. It reminds you that he is a human with feelings, dealing with doubt despite success. It removes a pedestal many stand on, and forget what it is like to step off. It is a fun listen, and caters to many sounds.

    The intro and outro feel like they loop around making the album a cyclical representation of love. The intro starts with "bring the dope, bring the hoes, bring the money bags in" leading to Q acknowledging he's "falling in love" and how this person he's writing about "makes him smile." Leading the rest of the album to feel like the rise and fall of emotion one feels when falling in love. The album title itself working as a duel meaning. Q promoted Blue Lips with the definition that explains it as "speechless due to shock or sudden strong emotions" which plays into the themes of excitement and the development of feeling. While the outro and latter half of the album sees Q embrace the inevitable fall of those emotions. Ending with the outro Smile which is as much a bookend as it is the final stage that brings us back to the beginning of the rollercoaster. Throughout the outro Q embraces the fall with the lyrics "My old bitch get swerved, I fell off o' word, the new car go skrrt" then continuing with "I've fully gone insane, I feeling low in shame" and finally concluding with "we can recollect an old thing, we can suicide ain't takin' no break." The title itself playing into the duality of love. Blue Lips stands for the excitement of such strong emotion and the inevitable death of a relationship. Blue Lips as a medical term is the bluish coloration your lips turn during rigor mortis. Funny the music critic seemed to overlook that. Still one of Q's best. Really just shows how much he's grown not only as a rapper but also as a writer. I think he does a great job of touching on the themes while not beating you over the head with them. Leaving the album an emotional rollercoaster or as anthony pretty aptly described it "a fever dream." I mean what is love if not a fever dream we must all wake from one day. That is unless you die first. BLUE LIPS!

    A lot of 7 in the albums but there were 10s and 8s in half of the album so I really enjoyed the album overall. Definitely has classic replayability and production is insane. Q is becoming like Tyler where he’s aiming for as a producer than a rapper. 8/10 for me and I’ve been a tde fan since setbacks.
