Lil Q: The rap crooner keeps her brother's legacy alive in the 'Memories' anthem

Memphis rap crooner Lil Q is riding hard for her brother in 2023. With the holidays officially here, it’s only right the hip-hop artist delivers ‘Memories’ to the masses remembering her late family member.

It’s a heartfelt audio ode to Q’s sibling and doesn’t hold back on the emotions. Tap in.

While the 18-year-old is building buzz in her city with her high-energy raps and knack for storytelling, she also leaves room for introspection as she navigates her own losses. Sharing her new single “Memories,” Lil Q honors the life of her late brother, Freeband Lil Steve, who was the first person to encourage her rap career. Growing up in Memphis, Lil Q had known loss from an early age. However, when Lil Steve passed away in November, the weight of grief was overwhelming. Q transforms her anguish into "Memories," pouring her soul into melodic piano notes. She reflects on rising from adversity and pledges to preserve her brother's legacy through each poignant verse.

“Memories” is Lil Q’s latest single, following her November-released banger “Who Dat (Make It Clap),” which earned her over 165K+ YouTube views and praise from NYLON. In the coming year, Q prepares to launch her career into new heights. Fueled by the memory of her older brother and her bottomless appetite for success, Q aims to become the artist you can't get enough of. Stay tuned for the multifaceted teen in 2024!
