Q-Unique: Brooklyn Bars, Arsonist Anthems, and Spiritual Rhymes

On this episode of BBS Podcast, we link up with Q-Unique, a true underground hip-hop legend straight outta Brooklyn. From his days rippin mics with the Arsonists to droppin solo joints and exploring spiritual vibes, Q’s story is a masterclass in staying rooted while branching out. We dig into his journey through the gritty Brooklyn scene, his evolution as an artist, and how faith and family keep his bars grounded. With a nod to his genre-bending style and collabs with heavyweights like Ill Bill, this episode’s got that raw, unfiltered energy you don’t wanna miss.

Q-Unique takes us back to his Bed-Stuy beginnings, where the pulse of Brooklyn’s hip-hop history—think Big Daddy Kane, Jay-Z, and the Beastie Boys—shaped his flow. He drops knowledge on the Arsonists rise, talking about their organic blend of breakdance, graffiti, and lyricism that set them apart in the ‘90s golden era.

From 12-inch singles to European tours, Q breaks down how the crew carved their lane. We also get into his solo hustle, the rebrand with the “Legacy Series,” and how personal tracks like “Father’s Day” still hit hard. Plus, Q opens up about weavin’ spirituality into his music, from “Come to Jesus” to his rock ventures with Stillwell, and what’s next with new tracks and a heavier sound. Q also lets us peek behind the curtain on what's going on with Stillwell, his other rock projects, as well some tracks with Sonny from P.O.D.

Tune in for a convo that’s straight-up Brooklyn—raw, real, and layered with wisdom. Whether you’re bumpin this for the bars or the bigger picture, Q-Unique’s got the mic, and we’re riding the beat with him.
