Quarantine Queen is the fourth extended play by American singer-songwriter, actor, and YouTuber Todrick Hall. Inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic, the album was written, recorded, and produced by Hall in the week leading up to its release on April 29, 2020.[1] A music video was released for "Mask, Gloves, Soap, Scrubs" the same day.[2]
Composition[edit]
The EP features six songs about life in the age of COVID-19. The first track is "Mas(k)ot", a spoof on "Bootylicious" by Destiny's Child that calls out all the events that have been cancelled because of the virus. It features a cheerleading theme and features Jerry Harris from the Netflix series Cheer.[3] "Tiktok" is about the app of the same name. "Meow" is about the television program Tiger King, notable for its popularity during the pandemic. "Mask, Gloves, Soap, Scrubs", is a parody of Hall's song "Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels" from Haus Party, Pt. 1
Following the arrest of Jerry Harris in September 2020 for allegedly soliciting sex from minors, the track Mas(k)ot was removed from all streaming platforms and download stores.[citation needed]
