Wiz Khalifa (@RealWizKhalifa) Previews O.N.F.I.C.

Before his sophomore hits the streets on August 28, Wiz gives MTV a sneak peak of the album. Below he explains what we can expect lyrically.

“I get pretty personal on there, it’s like a reflection of me and where I’m at right now.

I said, ‘I’m put here to take care of the family, but how was I supposed to know/ If I don’t take care of myself huh, then how am I supposed to grow.’ It’s simple, but it means a lot, and anybody who works their ass off will understand and be like, ‘Man, the dude is talkin’ some sh–.”
