ScHoolboy Q announced during his Blank Face LP anniversary tour that his upcoming album 'THank Que' will arrive in 2027

The rapper firmly shut down retirement rumors promising fans he will be around for the record's 20th anniversary as well

The project serves as the follow-up to his 2024 studio album 'BLUE LIPS' which ended a five-year hiatus

Top Dawg Entertainment rapper ScHoolboy Q has officially revealed his upcoming studio album, THank Que. The Los Angeles MC announced the project and release timeline during a live performance celebrating the 10th anniversary of his seminal Blank Face LP.

Taking the mic during the closing moments of the show, Q addressed long-standing chatter about his musical future and emphatically dismissed any rumors that he plans to step away from recording. “New album called THank Que coming out next year,” Q told the crowd. “I promise you that. 10-year anniversary, and I’mma be around for the 20th too. I promise that. I will never retire.”

The announcement follows the rapper’s sixth studio LP, BLUE LIPS, which arrived in March 2024 led by the single “Yeern 101.” That record ended a five-year gap between albums following 2019’s CrasH Talk, an extended hiatus that previously led fans to speculate whether the veteran artist was eyeing retirement. With THank Que, Q reaffirms his longevity in hip-hop as he continues his milestone tour across the country.

THank Que is scheduled to release in 2027. Stay tuned.
