Q Money amassed a sizeable following through Instagram and parlayed it into a career as an independent rap artist. The Cleveland, Ohio native made his recorded debut in 2017 with a bundle of three lean and braggadocios tracks entitled Win. The Cuban Doll collaboration “Mo’ Swag” followed by the end of the year. “Work,” a single accompanied by an official video uploaded in August 2017, quickly became Q’s biggest song to that point. It also functioned as a preview of Neva Had Sh*t, his first mixtape, which was out the following March. The full-length was promoted with another single, “Countin’ Up a Check,” as well as an extensive U.S. tour that began the next month. In 2019 Q issued the follow-up How You Gon Hate. ~ Andy Kellman
