ScHoolboy Q’s wish to have JAY-Z listen to his next album prior to its release has been spoken into existence as the two actually met up.
On Monday (February 26), the California MC took to Instagram to reveal that he linked up with Hov and even elicited a positive reaction from the mogul upon playing him Blue Lips, which is set to drop on March 1.

“Hov: ‘naw braH run dat back’ ME: ‘ok cool,’” he caption a photograph of them together while shouting out Top Dawg Entertainment president Punch, who presumably played a part in bringing them together.
On Twitter, the “Man Of The Year” rapper thanked his followers for helping him grab Jigga’s attention by writing: “HipHop twitter actually came tHru [crying emoji] played Hov tHe album.”

ScHoolboy Q has been actively hyping up his next album, though he did recently take a moment to let his fans know that he wished to get JAY-Z’s input on it.
In mid-February, the 37-year-old tweeted: “I wisH I could play tHis album for jay z [fingers-crossed emoji].”
Having the rapper and businessman listen to the record, however, wasn’t a priority for the Southern California native.
When a fan commented, “Half a mill or play it for em?” he responded: “Half a mill wtf [laughing emoji] I ain’t dat crazy.”

ScHoolboy Q can, by his own admission, probably use $500,000 right now as he recently revealed that his home in Los Angeles was damaged due to storms and heavy rains, while jokingly asking fans to help him with the repairs.
In early February, he took to his Instagram Stories to share clips of all the furniture inside his house covered in plastic sheets. This was most likely in preparation for the interior being repaired after the extreme weather conditions in the region around that time.

“Bro, y’all better buy every fucking album,” the rapper could be heard saying in the first video while he walked around and gave viewers a look at the inside of his house. “Every fucking vinyl […] Y’all better buy every fucking t-shirt; y’all better buy two albums apiece.
“I don’t even got that living room no more, I don’t even got a kitchen. My gym all fucked up. Bruh, y’all better buy two of each, cuz. Oh my God, water, homie — that storm fucked me up. Storm fucked me up, bro.”
Atop one of the videos, he wrote: “My album a go fund me [laughing emoji] MARCH 1st. BLUELIPS BUY 2 of each.”
