Description

This week on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we traveled out to Los Angeles to sit down with Pittsburgh's own Wiz Khalifa in the studio as he records his next album! We discussed the infamous Chief Keef video shoot in the desert with 50 Cent, hitting Curren$y on MySpace and moving to New Orleans to live on Spitta's couch for a month, how Snoop talked Wiz into acting, what it was like to perform for three audience members at a CMJ performance in NYC, his inspiration for the O.N.I.F.C. artwork and the internet's initial reaction, and what he thinks of all the artists who have taken inspiration over the years. We talk growing up in the Steel City, being comfortable wearing Chucks when everyone else was rocking Jordans, spending much of his high school years focusing on recording music and performing at local colleges, and the best thing he got from signing to Warner Bros. Records. All that, plus why he's gotten heavily into kickboxing, his favorite remixes, his most hilarious dated lyric, how fatherhood changed his perspective on life, what happened when Berner asked to borrow Wiz's car, which major records he's broken as a Vegas DJ, his honest reaction to the news that there's a SuperFly remake, and much, much more!
