"  After many delays, Wiz Khalifa has returned to rap with his new album, O.N.I.F.C. (out this week). As he promised, O.N.I.F.C. is a mix of the old and the new, his mixtape past and the lifestyle to which he&amp;#039;s become accustomed. His Taylor Gang roots, newfound riches, new wife Amber Rose, and love for marijuana are all very much a part of the rhymes. Here, Rap Genius provides its track-by-track breakdown, and listen to the whole album below. \u2014The Editors &amp;quot;Intro&amp;quot; An extremely short track that reintroduces us to the stylings of Wiz Khalifa. Note the cosmic, swirling beats. &amp;quot;Paperbond&amp;quot;* A classic Khalifa &amp;quot;weed and money&amp;quot; song. The MC travels around the world and smokes the finest drugs. Only Khalifa can live this fly. &amp;quot;Bluffin&amp;quot; A hater always shows his bluff. And while he sits at the sidelines, waiting for a chance to take a shot at Wiz, Wiz will just be laughing and moving on to another day, another dollar. Making $250,000 by nineteen is a start. &amp;quot;Let It Go&amp;quot; (featuring Akon) One of the worst things you can do as a rapper is fake your persona. Wiz wants you to know he lives what he speaks. Not like those other guys. &amp;quot;The Bluff&amp;quot; (featuring Cam&amp;#039;ron)* Again: no bluff in Wiz&amp;#039;s world. And he provides a nice verse to get the message across and kill the critics. His high life is here to stay. &amp;quot;Word Hard, Play Hard&amp;quot; The title says it all. Wiz&amp;#039;s life moves faster than you can keep up with. In the end, the best way to handle the speed is to keep working. But, you know, also relax when necessary. &amp;quot;Got Everything&amp;quot; (featuring Courtney Noelle) This one is clearly dedicated to Wiz&amp;#039;s new wife Amber Rose. Though he can celebrate his drugs, money, and fame, he also needs to go home to the woman he loves. Maybe that&amp;#039;s what the success is really all about. &amp;quot;Fall Asleep&amp;quot; Life is hard to put together when you wake up every day in a new country. Khalifa&amp;#039;s answer to this dilemma is to smoke and enjoy the ride. &amp;quot;Time&amp;quot;* Wiz finds himself looking back at how he got here. He could&amp;#039;ve stayed where he was, but instead he lifted himself up, got a record deal, and made a career out of nothing. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s Nothin&amp;#039;&amp;quot; (featuring 2 Chainz) The life you dream about? It&amp;#039;s pretty standard for Wiz and Chainz. They happily blow weed, cruise in foreign clothes, and wear the finest clothes, all in the name of fashion and fun. Chainz gives a solid verse that complements Wiz&amp;#039;s attitude. &amp;quot;Rise Above&amp;quot; (featuring Pharrell, Amber Rose, and Tuki Carter) Wiz&amp;#039;s mission for more fame and riches is never-ending. His guest stars drop in to drive the point home. They celebrate the desire to make more out of life even when you&amp;#039;ve reached massive success. Wiz &amp;quot;rises above&amp;quot; with his plane, his career, and of course, his drugs. &amp;quot;Initiation&amp;quot; (featuring Amber Rose and Lola Monroe) If there&amp;#039;s a Taylor Gang anthem on O.N.I.F.C., this is it, a tribute to the grinders, dealers, users, and fellow gang members. They&amp;#039;ll never stop in their rise to the top. &amp;quot;Up In It&amp;quot; We move away from the theme of the album for some sex. Khalifa dreams of new positions and experiences to have with his woman. He knows he has to take time out for his Rose. &amp;quot;No Limit&amp;quot; Wiz gets back on point and pushes the Taylor Gang MO into full gear. He sees a bright future with no stops signs for the young artists, and he resists the people who call him a fad. &amp;quot;The Plan&amp;quot; (featuring Juicy J)* You think Wiz just decided to be a rapper one day? He had a plan, man. Juicy J, one of the most sought-after guest rappers today, drops a verse that recalls his Three-Six Mafia days and complements the more innocent rhymes of Young Khalifa. &amp;quot;Remember You&amp;quot; (featuring The Weeknd)* Drake affiliate The Weeknd joins in for an anthem to the party girls. They hope the girls remember them when they&amp;#039;re gone. After all, their wealth, charm, and sexual prowess should be enough to leave any woman with a lasting memory. &amp;quot;Medicated&amp;quot; (featuring Chevy Woods and Juicy J)* Despite the title, &amp;quot;Medicated&amp;quot; is not all about Khalifa&amp;#039;s favorite topic. Instead, it&amp;#039;s the story of Wiz&amp;#039;s rise from a dealer on the street. Hypeman Chevy Woods and new collaborator Juicy J help the story along and bring the whole thing to a close. *Denotes a Rap Genius-recommended track.
