In 2005 he released his first official mixtape, Prince of the City: Welcome to Pistolvania, and later in 2006 he released his first full length street album entitled Show and Prove. Since then he has released a further six mixtapes and a collaboration mixtape titled How Fly with friend Curren$y. He released his debut album, Deal or No Deal, in November of 2009, it reached #1 on the iTunes hip hop chart, and then reached the top ten on iTunes' overall album chart the week it was released. Previously signed to Warner Bros. Records, he left the label in July 2009 after numerous delays in releasing his planned debut album for the label, First Flight. Khalifa stated to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that, "I learned a lot during my time there and matured as an artist during the process. I'm happy to be moving on with all of my material and having the chance to be in control of my next moves".He is also the founder of the rap crew Taylor Gang, which includes friends Kev Tha Hustler, Ekko, Smallz Money and Gene Stovall. They derived the name from the fact they always used to wear Chuck Taylor shoes.
Khalifa was born on September 8, 1987 in Minot, North Dakota to a mother and a father serving in the military. The family moved to Pittsburgh when Khalifa was the age of two. His parents' military service caused the family to move on a regular basis.
Over the next thirteen years, he would move between Pittsburgh and South Carolina, Georgia, Oklahoma, Germany, Japan, and England as his parents were reassigned to different posts. In October of 1990 Wiz was separated from his mother,who left him in the hands of her sister while she served in Operation Desert Storm.
During his travels, Wiz was forced to mature quicker than his peers. He was constantly faced with new surroundings, new schools, and new sets of friends, and he found it difficult to become attached to anyone outside his family roots. This nomadic life gave Wiz an opportunity, though, to broaden his mind and offered him many experiences from which to draw inspiration. He began to perceive the world differently than most kids, and he would write his thoughts down every day.These thoughts would become the foundation for his future recordings.
By the age of 14, with a few songs under his belt, Wiz was already drawing comparisons with his commanding voice and witty wordplay. While he has been influenced by artists such as Jay-Z, Camron, and the Notorious B.I.G., Wiz was determined to create his own identity that would, one day, be loved and revered by fans.
Ready to take the next step, Wiz began his search for a recording studio to record new songs. He found one, ID LABS, where owner Eric Dan immediately recognized Wiz's talents. Along with Chad Glick of ID Management, they began to network Wiz to another Pittsburgh native, Benjy Grinberg of Rostrum Records. Benjy realized the raw talent that Wiz possessed, and immediately brought him into the Rostrum family in 2002.
Soon after, Wiz Khalifa began his ascent into the music scene in the Pittsburgh area. He has been hailed by the award winning Pittsburgh Post-Gazette pop music critic, Ed Masley, as having “the skills, the looks, the confidence, the drive, and the charisma for the job.” The New Pittsburgh Courier says, “The combination of a young, charismatic M.C. with a slew of stop-and-rewind rhymes together with a local independent label with major industry connections has set the stage for a hip-hop artist representing Pittsburgh to reach superstar status for the first time ever.
In 2010, with the success of Kush and Orange Juice still present, Wiz Khalifa signed with Atlantic Records. Wiz's style along with his production team, Johnny Juliano, Sledgren, and E. Dan make this a winning combination for success.
He is also well known for his debut single for Atlantic, "Black and Yellow", which peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. His debut album for the label, Rolling Papers, was released on March 29, 2011. He followed that album with O.N.I.F.C. (abbreviated for mainstream markets from "Only Nigga In First Class") on December 4, 2012 which was backed by the singles "Work Hard, Play Hard" and "Remember You". O.N.I.F.C. debuted at number two with 131,000 in first week sales.
Pittsburgh City Council declared 12-12-12 (December 12, 2012) to be Wiz Khalifa Day in the city. Khalifa graduated from Pittsburgh's Taylor Allderdice High School and in January 2012, purchased a home in nearby Canonsburg, Pennsylvania.
In April 2013, Khalifa revealed that after having his son he decided to work on a new album that he was planning to release in 2013. On April 17, 2013, Wiz Khalifa and Curren$y announced that they will drop their collaboration EP Live in Concert on April 20, 2013. The EP featured seven new songs. On June 24, 2013, he announced that his fifth studio album would be titled Blacc Hollywood and would be released in 2013. On September 3, 2013, Khalifa revealed he had recorded songs with Miley Cyrus, Adele and Juicy J for Blacc Hollywood. In October 2013, Mannie Fresh confirmed that he provided production for the album. On February 11, 2014, Khalifa released Blacc Hollywood's first single titled "We Dem Boyz". The album was then supported by the singles "KK", "You and Your Friends", "Stayin Out All Night", "Promises" and "So High".
Khalifa released an EP with TY Dolla $ign on March 31, 2015, entitled "Talk About It In the Morning". That same month, Wiz released the lead single for the film "Furious 7" called "See You Again" as a tribute to Paul Walker. The single has since gone on to global success. "See You Again" spent 12 non-consecutive weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, tying for the longest-running rap number-one hit in the US.
On January 23, 2015, Khalifa was featured on a remix release of the Fall Out Boy song "Uma Thurman". On May 18, they performed the song together on the 2015 Billboard Music Awards show. In the summer of 2015, he began touring the United States with Fall Out Boy and Hoodie Allen in a tour titled "The Boys of Zummer Tour". The tour featured performances of "Uma Thurman" by Fall Out Boy and Khalifa. Later that year, on December 15, 2015, Wiz released the mixtape "Cabin Fever 3". During the Golden Globes on January 10, 2016, Wiz announced that his next album, titled Khalifa, would be released on the 22nd of that month. However, the album was released on February 5, 2016. On May 24, 2016, he released "Pull Up", a standalone single in promotion of his sixth album, Rolling Papers 2, which was released on July 13, 2018.
On April 20, 2020, Khalifa released, The Saga of Wiz Khalifa. The album included collaborations with Tyga, Logic, Mustard and Ty Dolla $ign. In May 2020, Khalifa featured on the song "Drums Drums Drums" with Travis Barker.
In 2021, Khalifa competed in season five of The Masked Singer as "Chameleon". He finished in third place.
Reefer Party
Wiz Khalifa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thousand pounds of weed
Riding in my car so fast I wont turn down the speed
Them hoes don't use they feet no more, they break down to their knees
And suck me like a king
Rose in my champagne glass and diamonds in my ring
Uh, roll some, that's your bitch on my dick, I might let her hold something
You niggas smoking sevens Imma need a whole onion, whole youngin, oh
No Blackberry, too many lame niggas call my phone
Call me world wide Wiz cause I'm never home
Ever leave me round your bitch I'mma get her stoned
And you know that, I rock camos and throwbacks
And go download some of my old track and go play somewhere there's hoes at
Fucking high, and you down there where them lows at
Gettin tired of hearing my flow jacked go head hand me a joint you cant roll that
[Chorus]
I got a whole lot of hochie, and I'm rolling up for anyone in here that knows me
Everybody smoking, yeaaaaaaaaa its a partyyyyyyyy, oh, its a party
Everybody smoking papers, nobody smoking blunts
Bitches rolling weed and my niggas fucked up
Yeaaaaaaaaa its a partyyyyyyyy, oh, its a party
[Chevy Woods]
Quarter pound of that sour, that's four days on tour
Sleeping on how we smoke, see all these pillows on this floor
Every state we score, fill those papers they be raw
Look like a piece of chalk in my hand but I ain't writing on the chalkboard
And I heard its a party, its a party its a party but I'm cool
Them niggas smoking garbage, I'm no fool
We give 5 j's out half zips? Nigga that's really smoking
Ain't enough weed up in that swisha to get you high, you joking
Niggas claim that they be high, they be hella low
When they gang up in the building you gon' smell that sour smoke
I could get that shit from my backyard, go pick it out myself
Yellow light let me slow it down, niggas need some help
28 ain't enough you need more
All this weed over here, that's 1 weed jar
When them planes get the flying, niggas wanna part
Smoking crash with the plane, Amelia Earhart
[Chorus]
[Neako]
What I smoke in one day, these niggas don't smoke in one week
Riding round and its just me, Pepsi can, playing that Bun B
Gotta smoke that dope on the run with me, comfortably, I'm smoking weed
Doing speeds, who with me, probably a chick from TMZ
I make her roll like two or three, let her smoke and feel the breeze
Ya'll chip in on a half a zip, counting grams, saving weed
Average shit, it was us just smoking out in NY
Swear to GOD we let ten fly, that's ten planes with ten guys
Nine smoke, meaning someone left without his mind pot
Planes Continental, flights nonstop
You get some zips, well get some P's
Smoke your spliffs and ragged bitch tell me how does she breath
Perfect planes, we call them G6′s
And its just me chilling, me and three bitches
Rolling up its cool, come take this bong rip
Pack this bold straight dope, make your lungs rip
[Chorus]
The song Reefer Party by Wiz Khalifa feat. Chevy Woods & Neako is a celebration of marijuana smoking. The first verse by Wiz Khalifa establishes the theme of the song as he talks about how he is riding fast in his car with a thousand pounds of weed. The chorus talks about how everyone at the party is smoking papers and not blunts, and how it's a party for anyone who knows him. Chevy Woods mentions how he and his team are smoking only the best quality of weed and not smoking garbage. Neako describes how he smokes a lot of weed in one day and how much he enjoys it.
The lyrics leave little to interpretation as the song is clearly about smoking weed and having a good time. The use of metaphors like "Rose in my champagne glass and diamonds in my ring" and "Look like a piece of chalk in my hand but I ain't writing on the chalkboard" add to the wit and humor of the song. The verses by each artist showcase their unique style of rapping while still sticking to the overall theme of the song.

Thousand pounds of weed
I have a lot of weed
Riding in my car so fast I wont turn down the speed
I'm driving my car really fast and not slowing down
Them hoes don't use they feet no more, they break down to their knees / And suck me like a king
Women are so attracted to me they don't even bother with their feet, they just kneel and give me oral sex
Rose in my champagne glass and diamonds in my ring / Uh, roll some, that's your bitch on my dick, I might let her hold something
I'm living the life of luxury with champagne and diamond jewelry, and another guy's girlfriend is attracted to me
You niggas smoking sevens Imma need a whole onion, whole youngin, oh
Other people smoke small amounts of weed, but I need a lot more to satisfy me
Same ones that hate, same ones that tag along / No Blackberry, too many lame niggas call my phone
People who used to dislike me now want to be around me, but I'm tired of all the calls from annoying people on my phone
Call me world wide Wiz cause I'm never home / Ever leave me round your bitch I'mma get her stoned
I travel all over the world and rarely am at home, and if I'm around another guy's girlfriend, I'll get her high on weed
And you know that, I rock camos and throwbacks / And go download some of my old track and go play somewhere there's hoes at
I have a distinctive style of wearing camo and old clothes, and I like to play my old music at events with women
Fucking high, and you down there where them lows at / Gettin tired of hearing my flow jacked go head hand me a joint you cant roll that
I'm really high on weed and other people are trying to copy my style, but they can't roll a joint like I can
I got a whole lot of hochie, and I'm rolling up for anyone in here that knows me / Everybody smoking, yeaaaaaaaaa its a partyyyyyyyy, oh, its a party / Everybody smoking papers, nobody smoking blunts / Bitches rolling weed and my niggas fucked up / Yeaaaaaaaaa its a partyyyyyyyy, oh, its a party
I have a lot of weed and I'm sharing it with my friends, it's a party and everyone is smoking weed, but only using papers instead of blunts, and women are rolling the weed while the men are getting drunk
Quarter pound of that sour, that's four days on tour / Sleeping on how we smoke, see all these pillows on this floor
I have a large amount of weed, enough to last me several days while on tour, and there are a lot of pillows on the floor from us smoking so much
Every state we score, fill those papers they be raw / Look like a piece of chalk in my hand but I ain't writing on the chalkboard
No matter where we go, we always find weed and use raw papers instead of traditional rolling papers. When I hold the raw paper, it looks like chalk but I'm not using it to write
And I heard its a party, its a party its a party but I'm cool / Them niggas smoking garbage, I'm no fool
I know there's a party going on but I'm not interested in going because I don't want to smoke low-quality weed like other people
We give 5 j's out half zips? Nigga that's really smoking / Ain't enough weed up in that swisha to get you high, you joking
When we give out five joints with a half ounce of weed, that's a lot of smoking. If you think a swisher with a little bit of weed is enough to get you high, you're joking
Niggas claim that they be high, they be hella low / When they gang up in the building you gon' smell that sour smoke
Other people say they're high on weed but they're really not, and when they all come together, you'll be able to smell the strong scent of the weed we're smoking
When them planes get the flying, niggas wanna part / Smoking crash with the plane, Amelia Earhart
When we start smoking weed, everyone wants to join in, and we're smoking so much it feels like we're crashing with the plane like Amelia Earhart
What I smoke in one day, these niggas don't smoke in one week / Riding round and its just me, Pepsi can, playing that Bun B
I smoke so much weed that what I smoke in a day, other people can't handle in a week. I'm just driving around by myself with a can of Pepsi, listening to Bun B music
Gotta smoke that dope on the run with me, comfortably, I'm smoking weed / Doing speeds, who with me, probably a chick from TMZ
I have to smoke weed while on the go, and I'm comfortable smoking and driving. I'm going fast and there's probably a woman from TMZ with me
I make her roll like two or three, let her smoke and feel the breeze / Ya'll chip in on a half a zip, counting grams, saving weed
I make the woman roll up two or three joints, let her smoke, and enjoy the outdoor air. Other people are trying to save weed by counting the grams and pitching in for a half ounce
Average shit, it was us just smoking out in NY / Swear to GOD we let ten fly, that's ten planes with ten guys
We were just smoking weed in NY, and I swear we smoked so much that it felt like we were flying on ten planes with ten people each
Nine smoke, meaning someone left without his mind pot / Planes Continental, flights nonstop
One person is so high they lost their mind. We're smoking a lot of weed and going on nonstop Continental flights
You get some zips, well get some P's / Smoke your spliffs and ragged bitch tell me how does she breath / Perfect planes, we call them G6âs
You guys can have some small amounts of weed, but we're getting larger amounts. Smoke your rolled joints and let the women breathe. We have luxury planes called G6's
And its just me chilling, me and three bitches / Rolling up its cool, come take this bong rip / Pack this bold straight dope, make your lungs rip
I'm relaxing with three women, rolling up some weed and taking bong hits. The weed we have is very strong and will make your lungs feel like they're ripping
