Game brings along the OG Scarface & K-Dot go for today’s Sunday Service track, which did not make the album because the sample did not clear. Produced by Mark Henry . Jesus Piece drops Tuesday.
So here it is…. the last #SundayService before “Jesus Piece” drops this Tuesday Dec 11th worldwide !!!! the artwork displays the original tracklisting for the album making it easy for you to slide the tracks that were supposed to be on the album but didnt make it because of sample clearances…… So again, here it is & I truly appreciate all the love & support on this album…. “MURDER” featuring @kendricklamar & @scarface produced by @markhenryDC artwork by @vladsepetov
Another slow, rainy Sunday means two new chopped and screwed tracks. The Fa$tlife crew comes through with slow versions of “Creepin” by Bucky Malone and “They Don’t Know” by Chris Beatz. Both of these were chopped by Mikey Wyllin (who just became an uncle, congrats). Both were also produced by Chris Beatz. What “They Don’t Know” is that Chris Beatz raps too. Check out both tracks below. Bucky Malone – Creepin (Chopped by Mike Wyllin)
After the success from his Pen & Paper mixtape and his new single “Conscience“, Jabb kills Chief Keef’s “Kobe”. Although he says this in the track, this was done in one take.

Not really your typical video, Joe Grind lazily gets his fans (including a few bad gyals) to make a visual for him.

I’m not really sure that this is just a freestyle (hell, you have to buy it if you want a copy)…..nonetheless, it’s pretty damn dope. Shoutout to Family Tree.

I feel as if Wiz Khalifa has a pretty bad rap among what I call half-fans: fans that have begun following his ascent once he was in the national eye, but never really knew about his earlier efforts. As a result, a lot of people felt that Wiz Khalifa’s major label debut, Rolling Papers, was a bit of a sellout album: a lot of synthesized tunes that are a departure from his still-party-yet-still-street songs from, say, Deal Or No Deal. The truth is — in my opinion of course — Wiz Khalifa has never strayed from his style of music, which in reality involved the inclusion of quite a few different genres. Adding a little more depth, he proceeds to not fix a not-broken game plan with O.N.I.F.C. (Only Nigga In First Class, or One Night In First Class if you’re PG).
Starts off on a high note, with ‘Paperbond’ showing Wiz Khalifa in a pretty smoothed-out reflective state. This vibe really does set the stage for the whole project (‘Bluffin’, ‘The Bluff’ with Cam’ron, ‘Time’)….and while he speaks on the current, ‘O.N.I.F.C.’ definitely gives you a slight feel of the past, especially since he has always been balling on his tracks regardless of difference in status (think Kush & Orange Juice), which there is plenty of here (‘It’s Nothin’ with 2 Chainz).
There are definitely positive and not-as-positive tracks on here as well. ‘No Sleep’ is powerful; not because there’s any additional depth per se…..it’s just a perfect combination of the usual Wiz Khalifa over a dope I.D. Labs production. With that said, it’s definitely Pharrell Williams’ ‘Rise Above’ that takes the cake sonically….even Wiz Khalifa’s tattoo artist Tuki Carter does well enough over the Neptunes more laid back track.
The album does have a few drops: I’m sorry, I know she’s from DC, but ‘Initiation’ featuring Lola Monroe sounds like an afterthought to get the new Taylor Gang member on a record. There’s a couple more on there, but this one definitely stands out more than most.
O.N.I.F.C. is certainly worth a listen if you’re not a fan (don’t expect any real thought-provoking lyricism….that brand of Hip-Hop isn’t Wiz Khalifa anyway) and definitely a great addition to the collection if you are. And even though I thought Rolling Papers was a strong enough effort, this one should definitely please the fans (and the aforementioned half-fans) alike until the next project. Roll up.
2 Chainz was on the horn with DJ Drama and Don Cannon last night on Shade 45. He spoke on his Grammy nomination and appearance tonight on Saturday Night Live. Below, he speaks on LeBron James and conversations with Ice Cube.
