Besides, Ross is waaaay older than Wiz, been in the game waaaay longer. Ross been doin' this music *%#% since I was in middle school.

I mean. You can nitpick those particular examples if you want but...I don't really think age plays that much of a role. Kendrick Lamar is 24...and sounds a hell of a lot different then he did at 21 as K-Dot.


Growing artistically has nothing to do w/ age. And the fact that all he does is rap about weed doesn't play a role either. You act like his subject matter limits his ability to grow as an artist.

Well, what exactly do want him to rap about then? He's been entertaining since he got out of high school, and I doubt he has lived the life K. Dot has. So what is it exactly you want from Wiz? To rap about savin' children from KONY?

Maybe he'll start rappin about how much fame and success sucks next.

He has his niche and other cats (ASAP Rocky comes to mind) are copying his DNA.

I think you're missing my point. I've repeatedly stated that I DON'T CARE about content (what he's "rapping about") and that I'm referring to his actual craft as an artist. 
I'm talking about his ABILITY as a musician. There's hasn't been any growth in a while. 

Not really sure how else to make that clearer.

You right, I don't know wdf you're talkin about.

Quincy Jones is a musician, Wiz Khalifa is a rapper.

I guess you havent heard the High School album with Snoop Spitta is on there

I suggest alot of yall go listen to High School with Snoop that was a solid album and if you ask me

High School > Taylor Allderdice

Every track was banging

I Get Lifted

Talent Show

It Could Be Easy

World Class

We're not going to list OG?

HS>TA definitely.

Ya'll are bugging thinking this is even close to K&OJ.

THIS

 

[Junok]

HS is most definitely better than TA. 

 

[bluecheese]

this tape is fire, much needed

For example...Rick Ross isn't rapping now about anything that he wasn't on Port of Miami. He's just 10x better at doing it.

Growth.

Bruh, this guy Wiz is only 24. Kush & OJ came out when he was 22. How much growth are you tryna see in a 2 year span when all you do smoke weed and stunt?

Listen to POTC1 and then POTC2 and you'll see what kind of musical growth can happen in a 2 year span 

I agree with DIOR PAINT, I see no growth

It's a cool tape but it just seems like he listened to his old tapes for inspiration instead of building on that sound.

But hey, maybe ONIFC will be that

 

[chrisb9393]

Well I expect high school to be better than TA because it's an actual album. TA is just a mixtape to get things going before he drops O.N.I.F.C.

 

[trynafeelmink]

Content wise there is no growth.. Musically the beat selection has captured the exact vibe of K&OJ and matured it vastly imo. Not to mention he switches the flow around quite often on here. 

What this mixtape was intended for imo was to lock down his core audience. By this time if you don't know what to expect content wise from a wiz tape the music ain't for you, but there is no denying that he has continued to grow his sound

Not sure what to think about NT anymore if this tape is being talked about like this... 

Every. Single. Track.

1. Weed

2. Traveling

3. Women

4. Shopping

Even Pusha T has more diverse subject matter.

*%$%$ this ain't lupe or blu. i hope you didn't inspect world insight or anything related from Wiz.

Those four things you listed are his lane. this tape is heat

 

[greenbean]

To the dudes who saying there is no growth

uhhhhh what else do you want him to rap about?

If he rapped about anything else like violence or "the hood" yall would be like Wiz is fake and this and that

He is a young dude who grew up in the burbs having house parties with kegs, smoking, drinking, and beckys.....he been true since day one

Now his life is basically the same thing but with 11 mill sittin in his bank account

Production-wise, it is

please explain

cause I HEAR growth musically from Wiz

POTC2 era, Flight School era, Kush & OJ era, Rolling Papers era alllllll sound different and you can hear him GROW and evolve into the artist we know today

delete your account

 

[friedchickenpimpin]

are you dudes even serious?? go and listen to the entire first verse on "the grinder", and thats only one tiny example, its been going on since spitta started it in covert coup, im not gonna name all of them buts its def there, im totally not reaching

listen to scottie pippens by spitta "kiddie pool n's aint really that cool, cant follow these moves you need more expensive shoes" that was def the line that started it, spitta was dropping subliminals left and right in covert coup about a certain someone biting his style
wiz def clapped back tho, even killed him on the same "O.G" track with currensy.


edit:
never been pt 2- "and n's talk but dont even be on them jets, man they aint even seeing them checks"
c'mon, how much more obvy can it be???

 

[discern]

This dude is so trash

 

[Hahahaha]

I like the tape, not blown away and I'm not expecting any growth. His music has always sounded like this for the most part.


Interviews at the end of every $%$+$%$ song are beyond annoying

 

[cj863]

Y'all are reaching like hell with this school girl beef gossip
