GQ has also released his latest EP, A Midsummer’s Nightmare, which was produced entirely by 9th Wonder.
Oakland rapper GQ, who is signed to 9th Wonder’s JAMLA label, has released his new EP, A Midsummer’s Nightmare. The EP, which is GQ’s first solo project since his E 14th album in 2017, features seven new tracks from the rapper and is produced entirely by 9th Wonder.
One of the standouts from the project is the lighthearted “Might as Well,” which features a flip of the Mary Jane Girls classic “All Night Long.” (This is like the 100th rap song to sample “All Night Long,” but 9th found a way to make it sound fresh.) The song slyly pays homage to The Notorious B.I.G.’s “Just Playing (Dreams)” as GQ and fellow JAMLA rapper Reauben Vincet imagine all of the famous women they would like to have *cough* relations with.
