Just a month shy of his new album's release date, Wiz Khalifa recently broke down the meaning behind its title, Blacc Hollywood, and who inspired him to go in that direction.
In an interview with VladTV, Wiz explained that he wants everyone to know they have a fair shot.
"Just to get everybody to like all the creative people and the masterminds behind the shit that people see... I just wanted them to embrace their mind states and you know, have somebody telling them that their game plan is cool enough for the world," he said. "Cuz, I come from that whole underdog [world] and you know, behind the scenes to the front of the scenes era. So, I just wanted people to know that I got em."
When asked about the spelling of "black," the Taylor Gang rapper says its not what people thinks it's about.
"I wanted to get away from the color of it," Wiz said. "First of all because a lot of people associate black Hollywood with like the black exploitation movies or just black actors in general so I just wanted to get away from the color and just more aim it towards the attitude and general purpose for everybody."
As previously reported, the album will feature guest spots by Juicy J, Project Pat, Curren$y, Chevy Woods and Ghost Loft (what, no Aloe Blacc?).
