Dot opens his verse in Spanish before detailing his own romantic skills. The THC and Gwen Bunn-produced beat has Q describing his love for weed while flaunting his skills in the bedroom. “Collard Greens” Featuring Kendrick Lamarįor the lead single off Oxymoron, ScHoolboy Q enlists the help of his TDE brother Kendrick Lamar for this psychedelic track. The overall message becomes clear: whether you take them or sell them, drugs offer nothing but a dark path. The track ends with Q feeling like the world is delusional when it comes to drugs so he’ll keep on trapping out of his Nissan. The song takes on a darker vibe as he makes it clear that he’s experienced in this line of work. On “Oxymoron,” Q flips the script: he is now selling the drugs that he abused on the previous song. The love affair that Q has with pills reaches the point where he ignores calls from his mother and daughter, with the latter crying out to her unresponsive father at the end of part one.
On the haunting “Prescription,” Q details the effects of being high, along with the pain he feels from not getting his fix. Here, the TDE star speaks on his experiences with prescription drugs from two different perspectives. For their second career collaboration, the two rappers take on a sample of singer Lissie’s cover of Kid Cudi’s “The Pursuit of Happiness.” Q and Rocky explain how they’re more comfortable within a state of mind where social rules don’t apply: They prefer to stick their middle finger up to conventional beliefs of achieving success, and take risks rather than holding on tight to the steering wheel. Whenever ScHoolboy Q and A$AP Rocky meet on a song, the results are worthwhile. “Hands On The Wheel” Featuring A$AP Rocky According to Q, when it comes to legal and illegal hustling, no one tops the residents of Figueroa Street. Rapid-fire verses about the liquor stores and laundromats accompanied by the old drunks and sex workers roaming Figueroa are draped over a smooth jazz-inspired production by LordQuest.
