Wiz Khalifa Releases New Track 'The Rain' From Forthcoming Mixtape

Fresh on the heels of his smash "We Dem Boyz" Wiz Khalifa is back with more tunes.

This time around he's putting his own spin on Timbaland and Missy Elliott's classic hit "The Rain."

Khalifa Man stuck with the same title but took a different approach making it known that he can't stand the fakes.

According to Vibe magazine, the track will be featured on his forthcoming mixtape 28 Grams, which will be hosted by DJ Drama.

And Wiz seems pretty confident in his new tape. In fact, he says he wants to add it to your list of Khalifa classics.

During an interview with MTV before his performance at Power 106's annual Powerhouse concert, he spoke highly of his latest project.

"Cabin Fevers - people love those. Kush and Orange Juice - people love that. Prince of the City, 1 and 2 - [fans] love it. Burn After Rolling - classic; Taylor Allderdice. Everybody comes up to me and tells me what's a classic so I'm just gonna add to the list."

MTV caught up with the Taylor Gang rapper after performing at the Hangout Fest in Gulf Shores, Alabama, and he revealed that he is also working on a studio album.

The mixtape will serve as a prelude to the album already entitled Blacc Hollywood and he seems confident in this project as well.

"I feel like Blacc Hollywood is my best, most solid effort, because I'm happy with everything that's going into it and how I project it to come out even before the CD even comes out," he said. "I'm most confident in this one, [more] than I've ever been in any of my albums."

No word yet on when to expect either release but check out "The Rain" for the time being.
