Sadly, the concept is just too tedious to sustain an album of such length and an inability to vary his flow/production to create a sense of variety cause the record to be exactly what the title states; a setback.

“Setbacks” is remarkable from a sonic standpoint, as all aspects sound as if they are at their utmost crispness. Setbacks is a worthy debut from the LA newcomer. If this album is a sign of what’s to come, listeners should heed this advice and keep their eyes and ears open for ScHoolboy Q in the near future.

Opinionated Opinion
it is one of the strongest projects in Q’s discography. It’s filled with less comical and more intricate lyrics than his recent releases and also shows a side of Q that his fans don’t get too see as much.

This project is something i been bumping since the release and shows what the west coast has to offer.

It’s just a collection of solid music from ScHoolboy Q with a few exceptional highlights. It’s dope.
