The Good: I hate to say this tape is better than his last album but it definitely is! Who doesn’t love flows about fly women and the champagne lifestyle coming from an indie rapper from Pittsburgh? The production is dope (as usual). Killa Kyleon does his best Rick Ross impersonation on “Spotlight” but it’s hot nonetheless.
The Bad: If you aren’t a smoker or into laid back raps on chill tracks then this probably isn’t you steez but no major qualms otherwise. I could live without Wiz jumping on super pop tracks when he doesn’t have a crossover flow yet. It just doesn’t work. (see “We’re Done”)
The Verdict: Following Wiz’s development, the level of his production versus the level of his rhymes have always been off but this mixtape you see them leveling out. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come from a rapper who I always felt was borderline dope.

I am feeling this, especially Supply featuring Nesby Phips…been seeing his name a lot on works with Wiz Khalifa and Currensy…must be the next hot thing
He has a good buzz going..one of the next “major” indie cats coming out..we’re next!! No Question
This mixtape is indeed a weed head, doobie rolling, puff puff pass joint. Its relaxed and smooth as ever. I been really checking out and going to Wiz concerts and stuff and doing all research on him. He is talented but I’m not that much of a fan of this mixtape. His other mix tapes are awesome and his recent album that he released was pretty balling called Deal or No Deal. I have been a fan of him since spring 2008 when I first heard his hit “Say Yeah.” I recommend people that are just listening to him hear his first album Pistolvania, and Prince of the City 1 & 2. Also check out the mixtapes that are hot which include “Burn After Rolling” and “Flight School.”
