PITTSBURGH — We think of Wiz Khalifa as someone who makes a lot, a lot of music, and does it quickly and almost effortlessly.
But in "Still Rolling Papers," the inaugural documentary from HipHopDX, he provides some insight into the making of "Rolling Papers," his debut album for Atlantic Records.
"They put me in the studio with Stargate and that's when I started writing the songs," he says. "My initial thought was like, 'I'm only recording the songs for the album and I'm going to record a hook today and I'm gonna record a verse tomorrow and I'm gonna record a bridge in three months.' So, they hated me, dog. They were like, 'Put the album together, dog, pleeease. We want to hear a complete song.' I was like, 'Nah, I'm taking my [expletive] time."
