Wiz Khalifa is back to him old self on this album, which I love dearly. I have been waiting a long time for wiz to get back to what made him great and respected during the time he was coming up. Wiz was always known for having the perfect songs for all party situations, but Wiz was also a very quiet lyrical rapper. Even though Wiz never gets credit for being a great lyricist or storyteller, on this album Wiz was very expressive about where he is in his life right now.
Unafraid on this album to share that these days his hustle is all about supporting his family. I love that Wiz being a catalyst for the rock star party lifestyle, took it upon himself to say that there is a time where a man sees that life is bigger than just partying, drugs and girls, even though there was alot of that in this album. But, Wiz surprised me in a good way on this album. He took the opportunity to explain his story once again, with a twist. He pointed out for his listeners that the media decides to paint him out as this bad boy pothead, when in fact he is a caring loving family oriented person who worked hard coming from Pittsburgh. In a city where most young boys don't make it past 25, Wiz stated that the media doesn't report this side of things. They don't tell the story of how he could be looked at as an example of how to get out of rough situations, build an enterprise for himself and all of his friends.
With that being said Blacc Hollywood was a way for Wiz to express how he has made it for not only himself but for all of those that he cares about. With hard work Wiz believes that you should be able to overly enjoy the fruits of your labor. The production on this album is very "radio-friendly" which makes it easier for you to be hooked on to every song, but I encourage those that listen to really pay attention to Wiz words.
