So for the first time in many moons I decided to step outside of my one-room mansion and head to an “industry event,” the listening session for Wiz’ second album dropping next week. Held at one of those old-school strip clubs in Manhattan, a bunch of folks crammed into the snug venue for all things open bar, free hors d’oeuvres and – of course – weed galore.
Sans Juicy J (who, I’m assuming, was too busy popping Mollys and sweating to attend), Wiz – flanked by Tuki Carter, Lola Monroe, Chevy Woods, Sledgren and other Taylor Gang members – spoke about how the album came to fruition, how working with the likes of Cam’ron and Pharrell was something he always dreamt about doing and more, all the while holding this massive blunt that was about as long and thick as a universal remote control.
The album drops December 4th, but you can kinda-sorta get a feel for how the whole thing will sound like up top and down bottom, courtesy of Mikey Fresh and Good*Fella Media.
