It is legitimately as good as anything Air France ever did. Khalifa tinggal di Jerman, Inggris, dan Jepang sebelum menetap di Pittsburgh di mana dia menghadiri Taylor Allderdice SMA. After a verse from Wiz, the song slips into beachside ambience, ice-rattle drums, and plaintive pianos. Best mixtape is definitely Taylor Allderdice, but Kush & OJ is a close second. Best album hands down is ONIFC, My all time favorite. Kush & oj and Taylor allderdice are 100 worthy of being on top too. It sounds pointless except that the interlude is easily the most enjoyable moment of the record. Prince of the city 2, deal or no deal, flight school are my personal favs. Maybe the album's most indicative track is "No Limit", which is nearly nine and a half minutes long thanks to a three-minute instrumental interlude. The album's acronym stands for "Only Nigga in First Class" and sports a dour looking photo of Khalifa on the cover, but it's difficult to find any significance in either- he hints at fatigue, but doesn't illuminate the flipside of stardom in any way. suggests ignorance regarding his own distance instead of a conscious desire to roll with the vibes. Wiz has never exactly spit quotable 16s but his rapping on O.N.I.F.C. He could- and just may- pump music out for the indefinite future that coasts on sound design and little else. He is there because he has to be, not because he should be.Įverything from there on is just an unending succession of diminishing returns that questions the relevancy of Khalifa's artistic existence. Khalifa doesn't say anything of note- "riding in my ride" is crushingly emblematic - and doesn't sound particular good from a technical standpoint. The problem, though, is that both songs would work best as zone-out instrumentals. The album kicks off with a suite of tracks that are meant to wash over you, and they are undoubtedly effective- "Paperbond" is steeped in the comforting draft of chillwave while "Bluffin'", produced by Drumma Boy no less, borders on balearic. which tosses a Blanco produced single to the dogs but then retracts further into his vaporized aesthetic. Taylor Allderdice is basically Kush and Orange Juice 2. Khalifa has already more or less disowned his debut, telling his fans that "creatively wasn't my best work." That regret is evident on O.N.I.F.C.
Both mixtapes were right in his lane, and they predicted the direction Khalifa would take with the album proper. Cabin Fever 2, from October, saw Khalifa dipping into L.A.'s ratchet scene to show just how much artists like Iamsu! owe to his own mix of nonsense rapping and soft, blissed-out singing. His Taylor Allderdicemixtape from March was a nice stopgap release, steeped in the same foggy, washed out beats that helped elevate him to fame. will quickly be swept under the rug by anyone but his true diehards, yet Khalifa still had a successful year by displaying his malleability. It's the best song on the album, by far.Or maybe he couldn't bring himself to care about the fragile nature of crossover success any longer. At the very least, I definitely suggest buying "Work Hard, Play Hard".

Unless you're a die hard fan of Wiz, "O.N.I.F.C." isn't worth your time or money. Those are pretty much the two central themes that constantly reappear on this album, and trust me, it gets old really fast, the lyrics are a mess. is the follow-up to Wiz Khalifa s gold-certified major label debut, Rolling Papers, which was released in March 2011, and spawned the multi-platinum hits Black And Yellow, Roll Up and No Sleep. Once again, Wiz continues to rap about how much money he makes and all the things he can afford, and especially his fondness of smoking weed. Sure, there are some solid selections such as the celebratory banger "Work Hard, Play Hard" and "Remember You", a bittersweet collaboration with the Weeknd, but for the most part, this is a lazy uninspired effort. The biggest problem is that it lacks enough creative substance to make it stand out from the rest of the pack.
