In real life it’s probably like 1.2 times flow, but when you are that high, when you are on the kush clock, it’s definitely double time for him. I know that sounds like a basic element, but sometimes he’s so clunky on the beat I can’t listen (take “No Worries” for example). This one is gonna stay in rotation for a while.Īgain the hook is what really stands out here, but that’s not the song's only noteworthy characteristic. Far and away the best effort on the whole shebang. Problem gives the track a nice west coast flavor. It's hard to not enjoy the beat, but what really won me over was, surprise, surprise the hook I had no idea Wiz could sing like that. A little more texture and life than the others. It has this really unique, dripping, shimmery feel to it. Sure enough, I ate it up like Wiz and Funyuns.

I knew this record was going to be different before I even pressed play, I knew if there was ever a track I was going to love it would be this one.

He doesn’t exactly fit the Sonny Digital, modern trap feel, and Miles Davis and Wiz Khalifa mixtapes don’t exactly go hand in hand. Earlier this year, I wrote about what an amazing, talented, and criminally underrated producer he is, so naturally his presence was surprising. When I saw the production credits it looked like Metro Boomin’s mom went beat shopping but this one jumped out at me because Easy Mo Bee is a living legend. Again, Wiz’ hook is surprisingly solid, but it’s that bass and his chemistry with Curren$y that engines this one. This has a little bit more edge than their typical, stoner-friendly collabs, but I dig it. If they didn't smoke I can’t imagine they would have much to talk about, but get these two stoners on a track and they have a natural chemistry. Anyways, I hate when people say weed is not a social drug - a good majority of my friendships were built around the fact we all love to smoke - and Wiz and Curren$y are the same.

All of Sonny Digital’s beats have this atmospheric, I’m-trying-to-win-a-million-dollar feel, but this is an actual, direct sample, right? Am I crazy? AM I?! Wiz even has those “oh”s which really give the track that Who Wants To Be A Millionaire feel. I swear to the Based God this beat sounds like it sampled Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. Ok, first and foremost, this song is driving me crazy. Like marijuana, he’s not hurting anyone, so why bother him? Wiz Khalifa gonna Wiz Khalifa, and I'm okay with that. I think you’d be hard pressed to find someone who truly hates Wiz Khalifa. Still, that doesn't mean that his THC-laden bars don’t have a place in the industry and it shouldn't take away from the massive, cult following he has created. He’s never going to shift the tectonic plates of the rap world. None of that - the tours, the Billboard spots, The Fast & Furious frat bros - really matter though because Wiz is exactly who we think he is and no amount of number one songs will change that. Wiz then spent the rest of the year touring with Fall Out Boy, but his releases were few and far between, until now. He didn’t release an album or a tape and he didn't produced any big headlines, but he still has the most successful single of his career in “ See You Again” (AKA Paul Walker's “I”ll Be Missing You”.) Walker's untimely death and the passionate Fast & Furious fanbase probably had more to do with the song's success than Wiz’ command and skill, but it blew up none the less. In 2015 he was oddly silent, well kind of. The Roll Up (Background):īlacc Hollywood was a disaster and that is kind of the last thing I remember about Wiz.
