Rage Trap

Q raised the reputation of trap with his debut EP, Ragestar

With his dynamic style, it’s hard to know what the Kingston, Jamaica-hailing artist, Q, will throw our way next. His latest standout single, Don’t Talk 2 Me, taken from his debut EP, Ragestar, was never going to disappoint.

The trappy, fiery soul in Don’t Talk 2 Me, reels you in through the sharp hooks, atmospheric production, and unabashed honesty which explores a wounded side of Q’s psyche. If any trap track is going to teach you the importance of creating boundaries and sticking by them with conviction, it is this electrifying hit that draws from across the urban spectrum. Against the hard trap beats, you’ll find Dancehall and RnB nuances that affirm the artist’s status as an up and coming pioneer.

A lot of rap artists market themselves as versatile, but Q well and truly sets the bar with his flawlessly authentic style.

Don’t Talk 2 Me is now available to stream album with the rest of his debut EP via Spotify.
