King of a generation and a true pioneer. He arguably ushered in weed rap and has given us classics. Please show some respect

I’ve never been a particular fan outside of Kush & OJ, more often than not he’s felt pretty flat as a rapper. Yet I gotta give props for his hit-making ability and for being a ubiquitous name in the industry even without the abundance of music.

As the years go by, I’ve oddly grown strangely fond of his old material. Brings me back to simpler times:

He undoubtedly fell off a bit but the respect is still there

Rolling Papers was a fun album. Wasn't great but had really good production. Think Dre, Snoop, Red and m---, Cypress Hill might have ushered in weed rap first tho

d--- I used to play the h--- out of this in my early 20's having big dreams and hopes.

Pharrell the granddaddy of that movement. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention Lupe, Cudi & Ye for following suit. Laid all the seeds of what we see now with rappers embracing alternative sounds, we’d never get some of Uzi’s poppiest stuff along stuff like with IGOR.

I agree, Mia Khalifa is definitely a legend even though she only did 3 scenes. She isn’t a bad rapper either. I’m not into weed rap since I’m straight edge and don’t drink or smoke but I respect her.

same here. I’ve never been a huge fan besides kush & oj and the stuff with spitta, I’m just giving credit where credit is due

can we also point out how important it was in the era of rappers discovering and sampling indie rock? One of the most defining traits of the blog era

yes the h--- he is. your favorite rapper wish he had a tape as good as kush & oj

I can’t remember the last time I listened to a wiz song but none of that matters. He’s cemented himself as a house hold name. A celebrity more than a rapper.
s---, I’d even say he replaced bob marley as the de facto term for weed (“I’m smoking wiz khalifa”)
