"..Quite Baked."

so like thousands of other Wiz Khalifa fans, i copped his newest mixtape "Kush and Orange Juice" after constantly playing "Flight School" & "Star Power" out, since he took forever to drop something new. Wiz is looked at as just another weed head who just raps ABOUT that but in alotta ways, Wiz has been a star for some time now, but he's been small with it. he really isn't into that large crowd celeb-status stuff, as he told Richmond & a few online interviews - & i can respect that because if i were to go further in this music shxt as a producer, i would take the same route. i don't need that much fame. i'm not greedy. like he said, "i'd rather DO small shows & know that THAT crowd consists of REAL fans.." real shxt.

"Kush and Orange Juice" is aight though. it sticks for about 75% of the tape & then it kinda dies off on the end, lol. but forreal, its ill. it had me vibing & thinking (then eventually working out) about alotta things & it actually made me feel better about a few things that i'm dealing with right now & kinda put me back in my old mindstate of "fck what's left, go right." - just do what you gotta do to say you've got success. success is success, whether its small, medium or large. alotta people aren't trying to strive for any kinda success, even if its for personal reasons/benefits & its sad. the economy has got this society we live in thinking that we gotta bend when THEY say bend & that aint the case. Wiz gets on them joints on the new tapes like 'fck it, imma star'. he puts his all into what he does like alotta people but alotta people don't wanna just realize they're a star but know how to stay humble with it & thats where people mess up. you can do the shxt & stay humble but recognize that you're happy after the process of getting to where you're at in your success.

"..no more sucka shxt." - thats a real line right now. sucka shxt is what prolongs beef, ignorance & being broke. my man Mike was always telling me that "there's always someone thats doing more than you" & now i'm either doing or trying to find something where i'm doing more than the next. "Kush and Orange Juice" isnt just a 'puff-puff-pass' mixtape - if you're a real person like i am, you can get something out of some of the most repetitive things. this tape is repetitive of his lifestyle but i can hear growth in being consistent IN being a "taylor" or being a "star". if you live with knowing who you are & knowing what you had to do in order to have what everyone is hating on you for, you can smile - you're technically a star - & thats success at a fine moment.
