Fubu Q | “Left Handed Artifacts,” Unmatched Flows
If you’re looking for some hard-hitting bars and unique rhythms, let us introduce you to Fubu Q and his latest project, “Left Handed Artifacts.” The Palmdale rapper’s three-song project simply can’t be ignored. And Fubu Q ensures you don’t forget his name by the end of the EP.
Fubu Q has been recording since 2018. And it’s safe to say the artist continues to get better with each project he’s a part of. Fubu Q “fell in love” with the music creation process and everything tied to it. And this passion is palpable in “Left Handed Artifacts.”
The project introduces itself with a track called “Lochness.” For about two and a half minutes, Fubu Q spazzes on the mic, rapidly spitting bar after bar. The rapper doesn’t miss a beat and showcases why he’s a force to be reckoned with.
Bringing “Lochness” to the elite level it’s at is the eccentric beat. The rhythm wraps you in a lowkey, jazz-like feel. A calming piano melody and held notes soothe the years. A unique drum sequence gives the track a little boost in terms of an energetic feel. Still, it’s Fubu Q’s bars that provide that powerful punch the song contains.
I have a huge infinity and appreciation for old-school hip-hop. Growing up, some of my favorite artists were Andre 3000, MF DOOM, Mos Def, The Roots, and Lauryn Hill. This was always my foundation, Fubu Q, regarding the inspiration behind “Left Hand Artifacts.”
After that, Fubu Q keeps you locked in with the song “Sweet.” Right away, the beat entrances you with dream-like tones and an overall tranquil vibe. Additionally, “Sweet” features an unexpected mini guitar solo that you can’t help but appreciate.
Similar to the other songs on “Left Handed Artifacts,” Fubu Q’s bars are unmatched. The rapper shows off his versatility on “Sweet” by throwing down an entirely different flow. Fubu Q also draws a bit more of your attention by giving his vocals a distorted effect that matches the overall feel of the track.
Get it how I live / I just do what I want, Fubu Q on “Sweet.”
The final song on the project is “Guava & Cheese,” an almost four-minute track featuring Chives Bandit. Fubu Q kicks things off by laying down a head-spinning flow packed with emotive delivery and clever similies. “Guava & Cheese” is Fubu Q’s final punch on the project, and he delivers a flow so mean he makes sure you won’t forget him.
The track continues with Chives Bandit taking over and showcasing his unique flow and expressive nature. The featured rapper pours a ton of passion into his bars and gives “Guava & Cheese” a little extra something.
