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.{{cite web|url=https://www.instagram.com/p/B_fzmVHFSmA/|title="Surprise! Soooo...exactly one week ago I decided to write and create an entire album to hopefully lift your spirits during this quarantine! Nina Simone once said "It's an artist's duty to reflect the times in which we live." I hope this inspires you to stay healthy, stay creative, stay safe and stay home while continuing to stay fabulous! Love you all and I promise HP3 is coming soon, but until then get ready; cuz it's going down Wednesday!"|website=Instagram|access-date=April 29, 2020}} A music video was released for "Mask, Gloves, Soap, Scrubs" the same day.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WYA6dE8QPk|title=Mask, Gloves, Soap, Scrubs (Official Video)|website=YouTube|access-date=April 29, 2020|archive-date=July 29, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220729180934/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WYA6dE8QP|url-status=live}}

Composition

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.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/pride/9366853/todrick-hall-coronavirus-album-announcement|title=Surprise!

"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|date=January 2021}}
