Q Da Fool: The 'Art of Ambition' is a big homecoming project you didn't see coming

Tired of what you’ve heard lately - well, everything you’ve heard ‘not’ on Attack The Culture, of course. Turns out rap artist Q Da Fool is coming through more than correct with a full-fledged Art of Ambition studio album.

Q Da Fool’s ‘Art of Ambition’ project is ready for your streaming goals

It’s more than just a few tunes, too. Loaded with nearly 20 songs and a couple collaborations, Q comes through putting the entire DMV (DC, Maryland and Virginia for all you non-East Coast heads) on the map.

Q Da Fool, the prolific Maryland rapper has just shared his new mixtape Art of Ambition. Led by the lead single "Rich Droppaz" (feat. OT7 Quanny), which in the words of Billboard, is "a slinking street anthem that coasts on both the duo's chemistry and their individual charisma", Art of Ambition is out now in partnership with music distribution company ONErpm. Effectively serving as Q Da Fool's official comeback tape after he served an initial 18-month sentence and then got locked up again after a brief stint of freedom this summer, dropping Home Detention to continue feeding the streets. In light of the recent legal trouble and adversity, Q Da Fool is ready as ever to reclaim his spot in the fiery DMV Hip-Hop scene, and continue showcasing why he's their premier talent – putting on for the city through his gritty lyricism and infectious energy. On his new mixtape Art of Ambition, Q Da Fool is elevating his dynamic street-heavy sound by delivering creative flexes while also candidly reflecting on the ups and down of his decorated career. Rapping with an energized purpose and asserting his dominance through his trademark energetic flows across Art of Ambition, Q Da Fool is officially back like nothing has changed, breathing new life into an underserved DMV hip-hop scene that has been blossoming over the past decade thanks to Q Da Fool's monstrous output.

Hailing from the small town of Largo, Q Da Fool has been a clear-cut DMV standout for the better part of a decade. After earing his spot through a constant display of rapid-fire flows and matter-of-fact lyricism displayed on a number of hit singles including the RIAA Gold-Certified “Win” (9.4M Streams) and a momentous collaboration with Shoreline Mafia, Q Da Fool has steadily been carving out his own distinct lane in which he consistently shares detailed stories of his lived experiences and the street life in Maryland. Having released an impressive string of countless dynamic street anthems and projects with producers like Kenny Beats and the Grammy award-winning Zaytoven, Q has distinctly chosen not to follow directly in the footsteps of his area’s popular go-go wave, which is an artistic decision that has allowed him to fully flex his gritty lyricism and energetic flows. A consistently gritty rapper spitting candid street sermons through energetic flows, Q Da Fool is continuing to represent his state to the fullest on his new homecoming mixtape Art of Ambition – out now, in partnership with ONErpm.
