Life wasn't always easy for the self proclaimed "Steven King of Hip Hop". He was an only child in a single parent household and had to fend for himself most of his childhood. He always maintained a close relationship with his mother who was a drug addict for most of his young life. At the age of 9 he spent time in a pediatric mental hospital when teachers found he spent most of his time in class making disturbing drawings instead of classwork. Throughout childhood and into his teenage years the kid who would later be known as "Q Strange" was an outcast. Never getting ahead in his studies and rarely attending classes Q fell in love with the art of hip hop. Even at the age of 12 he was penning verses rather then school essays. Moving around and changing schools it was hard for him to keep friendships outside of his own family. He recorded his first demo at 14 and knew at that moment that this was what he wanted to do with his life. At the young age of 16 Q lost all he had in life and was forced to support himself when his mother passed away due to a drug overdose. Virtually homeless depending on the kindness of friends and family he bounced from place to place doing whatever he could to surivive. Q was heading down the wrong path getting arrested from charges ranging from shoplifting to felony assault before he was 18. It was at this time he hooked up with a local hip hop collective of MC's DJ's and Producers knowns as "3rd floor productions". His friendship with DJ JD would be one that would ultimately change his direction in life. Although the group was low on funds and had limited studio equipment JD acted as a mentor to Q (known as Mista Jinx at the time) and taught him the art of beatmaking and song structure. Recording with the group as well as solo projects he performed shows and ruled the battle circut until the crew dispanded around 1997. Taking a break from music and trying to struggle with the everyday stress of being broke and working hard he returned to the music scene this time with a whole new darker sound and persona. Q recorded Murder Kill in '97 and locally released a bootleg tape with a dark hip-hop sound and graphic horror subject matter that garnered a huge response from a diverse group of music fans. As word of mouth spread, some fans in the midwest dedicated a website to Q Strange introducing him to the world. In 1999 Q released another bootleg entitled "Decayed Thoughts" which was well recieved and earned him enough money to release his professional debut "Creation to ExeQtion" in 2000. The concept album which was an audio horror "movie" with each song connecting to the next telling a chilling sci-fi horror tale of a deranged serial killer developed a cult following and soon Q Strange was known all over the globe as the next big thing in the dark underworld of horrorcore. In 2003 after several deals gone bad with different record labels Q independently released his second album "Strangeland". This album brought the murderous style that his fans had come to know by now, but also balanced out with more "traditional" hip-hop songs and emotional tracks proving that there was more to Q Strange than just a gimmick. Both albums moved thousands of units with no distribution outside of mail order and consignment deals with various merchants, and was widely bootlegged all over the world. That in addition to extreme high energy live shows earned Q a huge fanbase, and got the attention of the music industry as different labels showed intrest in signing him. In late 2004 Q Strange inked a deal with Mad Insanity Records joining the ranks of underground legends such as Ganxsta NIP, Mastamind (NATAS), and Flatlinerz along with other highly respected up and comers such as Bay Area horrorcore artist and CEO Mars. Mad Insanity will re-release the first two albums with proper distribution making the discs easier for fans to find, and release a new highly anticipated album that will be sure to make waves in the music industry. Q Strange and Mad Insanity Records's vision is to make the world recognize the darkside of underground hip-hop known to its cult following as horrorcore.

Kill Somebody
Q Strange Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I get stressed and shit
Yo I know you get stressed to
We all got stress
And all they're trying to tell you is meditation
And relaxing and all that shit
Fuck that man, that shit don't work
There's one thing that you can do
It's gonna be a peach – But you gotta listen to me

You just...
You just...
You just...
You just...

Kill Kill Kill Somebody
Kill Kill Kill Somebody
Kill Kill Kill Somebody
(Take a deep breath, grab your knife and just do it)
Kill Kill Kill Kill

Kill Kill Kill Somebody
Kill Kill Kill Somebody
Kill Kill Kill Somebody
(Just Take a deep breath, grab your knife and just do it)
Kill Kill Kill Kill

Just kill your mother, that ain't cause your woman clean
'Shut the fuck up bitch' and you stab her with a spleen
Kill your father that drunk and fucking waste a life
Wait till he's sleeping and give his fucking troath a slice
Just kill your teacher right in the fucking classroom
Drag his bloody body inside the school bathroom
Right between the classes when the halls are packed
So all the nerds who go to school that are like 'What the fuck was that?'
Kill your best friend when he's hanging at your house chilling
'Nah man that's my homey' 'Man fuck it - just kill him'
Take a sinder arc and smash it over his head
And beat his bloody open skull till you know he's fucking dead
Hide the body in the closet till it starts to stink
Chop him up with a paster and dispose him in a sink
Cause I know the way you think and it's just like you
You wanna kill everybody see I'm just like you
So in the middle of the night, sneak out your crib
Break into the neighbours and don't the wake the kids
And pour gasoline all over the house
Light a match throw that shit in and burn the whole joint down
Just kill people, old people, young people, black people white people
Don't discriminate – We're all equal
I know nobody understands you and they think you're strange
So take it from me – that's my last name

[Chorus x2]

Go ahead and stab him, get a gun and blast him
Break a pipe and crack him, randomly attack him
Get creative with em' torture when you kill em'
Make them scream your name within in vein make him a victim
Split him wide open and take them organs and guts
Throw them at people in the street like – WHAT
Fuck – So many people to kill – So little time
Murder, kill, rape, rob, steal, commit crime
Go to school tomorrow try to top columbine
In a trench coat with an Uzi killing kids without a time
Kill the whole world till it's just you left
And stab your head with a pen till you kill your fucking self
I'm ill, I'm Q and I'm Prozac and Peckville
Take Jones wand it might as well be sugarpills
Cause it does nothing for me man I still wanna kill
I'm not gonna sop till my heart gets spilled
So what the fuck you waiting for, just go ahead and do it
Don't stop till your covered in blood and body fluids
HaHaHaHaHahahahahahahahahaha
DO IT YOU CHICKENSHIT .. Fuck

[Chorus x2]

Kill
Yeah what the fuck your waiting for
What are you a little bitch?
Just do it
(Take a deep breeath, grab your knife and just do it)
Don't talk the shit, do the shit
Little bitch
Shit
Cause if you was shit you don't just fucking kill somebody man
He's right – Just fucking do it
(Take a deep breath, grab your knife and just do it)

[Chorus x2]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Q Strange's song Kill Somebody are both disturbing and thought-provoking. The artist seems to be speaking directly to an audience that may be struggling with anger management or mental health issues. The opening lines suggest that the act of meditation and relaxation may not be enough to relieve the stress in one's life. Instead, the artist proposes an extreme solution- to kill somebody. He takes the listener on a violent journey that involves killing family members, friends, neighbors, and strangers indiscriminately. The artist rationalizes the violent behavior by implying that everyone has the desire to kill or harm others, but only some act on it.

In analyzing the lyrics, it's hard to tell if Q Strange is promoting violence or if he's using extreme language to provoke a reaction from the listener. It's possible that he's using shock value to make a point about the importance of mental health and seeking help when needed. The artist is raising the issue of individuals who feel isolated and alone in their anger and frustration, and as a result, act out violently. Ultimately, the song asks individuals to confront these feelings head-on and suggests that ignoring the problem only leads to more violence.
