Wiz Khalifa is currently prepping the release of his upcoming sophomore album O.N.I.F.C., which he initially intended to record as “the best rap album possible.” During an interview with MTV News, the Taylor Gang leader explained the meaning behind the LP’s title and how it’s a nod to how far he’s come in his career.
“The title O.N.I.F.C. is pretty much how I feel about where I’m at in the game right now. What I’ve worked to achieve and just what I plan on staying as,” he said. “I just really wanted it to be the best rap album possible. Not with a bunch of less obvious songs, in your face, but just with stuff that makes sense. It’s definitely the next level in the best of the best that it could be at this point, for sure.”
According to Wiz, the album, which has already spawned the single “Work Hard, Play Hard,” will be a testament to his abilities. “What people will get from the album is they’ll understand that I’m locking down my lane and being the best at what I do. Not really to try to expand to points that people don’t know or expect from me, but just really, really be the best at what people know Wiz for.”

Shouldn’t that be the mission with every album? Rappers these days.
as Albert responded I am blown away that a student can make $9558 in 4 weeks on the internet. did you look at this link (Click on menu Home more information) http://goo.gl/IM8Hl
So basically he is saying he is going to perfect his weed tracks? I hope that its a little deeper then that.
Wiz is cool but he need to learn to be humble, his content not that deep to say shit like this – Kush & OJ tho
tru dat
Well in order to make the best rap album possible, you have to have alot of talent as a rapper, and from what I hear Wiz hardly has any.
“and from what I hear Wiz hardly has any”
He has talent. It’s just people love to hate.
If he had talent no one would hate him.
His flow is so basic just about anyone could do it. He’s very generic, has no topic variety, and wack lyrics.
that’s a retarded comment, talent also makes people hate you… jealousy or being tired of hearin about you
Wiz isn’t that great admittedly but he does his purpose for me as a “weed rapper”. if I’m blazin one than I might have a listen to some of his shit
Bitch please you know damn right you don’t smoke weed.
right and who the fuck are you again?
Pretty sure what he just said had absolutely no substance and that he is selling out like he did on Rolling Papers for his new album
Man why do people hate on rollin papers so hard. I fuks wit Kush & OJ, i fuks with all his mixtapes, i roll to da concerts, and i fuk wit rollin papers too, it’s a dope album. One of my favourites from last year. It’s musical it’s artistic, i smoke all damn day and that shit was the bomb to wig out too when u high, trippy shit for real for real. Haters man, fuck em. You know u doin good if you got some haters.
This lil knocker wanted to make the best rap album Possible look in to theast a study rap and hiphop culture uzzzzz fuckzzzzz that goes for all of you fakin funkin punks
🙁
then he shoulda got nas to write it for him
IN SUMMARY, HE’S STILL CRYING ABOUT THE CRITICISM FOR THE LAST ALBUM AND WANTS TO PROVE HIMSELF…
this was well said by Wiz.
“then he shoulda got nas to write it for him”
Why call him? He wants to go platinum.
I have to agree. Lyricist don’t sell. Ice Ice Baby and Can’t Touch This And Kris Kross’ Jump > Fight the Power and all other forms of real shit
@Shyne thats why they all fell off and haven’t been able to make a comeback
“If he had talent no one would hate him”
I’m sure millions of fans think the dude is plenty talented and better than your favorite MC.
“Well in order to make the best rap album possible, you have to have alot of talent as a rapper”
Eminem has talent, so why hasn’t he made the best possible rap album in awhile?
because there are other factors involved too dumbass.. stop mentioning em when he was nothing to do with this article gtfo
fuck y’all haters. wiz khalifa is definitely talented and is one of the best rappers of this generation (ask old ass prodigy who he killed on his own album). his mixtapes were dope, rolling papers was dope, gonna be copping this one. wiz gonna blow up the charts again. TGOD
cosign.simple as THAT.
dick ridin faggots
@anon does it break your heart to see people co-sign a rapper? lol
i dont know man once them lil teenage kids start dick ridin these niggas it becomes harder to like em or take em serious anymore
Wiz dropped some great tapes several years back with Burn After Rolling and Kush and OJ probably being the best. Rolling Papers sucked but his new mixtape was decent. I’m giving this album a chance but it probably won’t be a classic.
Wiz Needs to Work with $NGMB x Bone ! Now That’ll be Dope AF !
#TGOD #SNGMB
“because there are other factors involved”
Such as?
so its safe to expect 12 repetitive weed tracks.
