For a self-proclaimed stoner of all-stoners, Wiz Khalifa sure puts in a lot of work. In between the Microsoft commercials, constant shows and endless stream of interviews you’d actually think the man is addicted to work, not THC. But as Wiz reminds us on his new single, his life carries one simple motto: Word Hard Play Hard. Produced by Benny Blanco and Stargate, the latter half of which were responsible for his massive Black & Yellow breakthrough, Work/Play features an openly banger of a beat full of enough bass to set off a California faultline and instantly addictive synth lines before flipping into a more openly pop hook. Vocally Wiz follows the instrumental’s lead, laying down line after line aimed at letting the world know that all that hard work has paid off very, very nicely: “I got so much money I should start a bank / so much paper right in front of me it’s hard to think.” So how about it DJBooth Nation? Was Work Hard Play Hard the right way to kick off Wiz’ campaign towards the summer release of his sophomore album, O.N.I.F.C. (Only Nigga In First Class)?

This song first appeared on the Top Hip Hop / R&B Chart on May 7, 2012

Nowhere near as catchy as "Black and Yellow," but this one is closer to Wiz being Wiz and not who someone else wants him to sound like for record sale purposes.

This isn't a bad track, nothing really special to it though.

Best Wiz I've heard in a while, it's got the pop hook but also the classic Wiz lines we grew to love pre-Rolling Papers

Listen the song comes out fire and banging....I personally thought the chorus was weak. I mean there is so much technical beauty to this song, I really just thought they coulda done a better job on the chorus. Shoulda gone less dancey more hood, woulda been more banging...
