Breaking into the mainstream of things...

"I first heard of Wiz Khalifa earlier this summer when I heard his hits "Say Yeah" and "Make It Hot"
Intrigued to hear more, I downloaded his "Flight School" mixtape and was very much impressed. His production is top notch, and he has a very unique sound. From here I downloaded his "Prince of the City 2" and "Star Power" mixtapes and have been a huge fan ever since.
Since then he has released 2 mixtapes, "How Fly" (a collaboration effort with Curren$y) and finally, "Burn After Rolling"
If you have not heard his mixtapes, I would recommend them all, as they all feature many songs that are of CD quality.
This album features 5 re-mastered songs from his mixtapes, to which many fans have been stubborn over. I personally like the additions of all these songs, as they display the growth and maturity that Wiz has shown as he's been on his journey to making it in the rap industry.
The album features top notch production all around. I just can't seem to get enough of it.
My favorite songs are...
1. Chewy
2. Goodbye
3. This Plane
4. Take Away
5. Who I Am
6. Friendly
7. Superstar
That's about half of the album, and the rest of the songs are all good too, the above ones are just my personal favorites.
If you have been looking for something new and refreshing to add to your library, I fully support the addition of this album as well as his mixtapes to your collection. You will NOT be disappointed."
Best rapper out there

"I've been following Wiz since around the time that "Damn Thing" and "Pittsburgh Sound" came out. Since then he has grown to become my favorite rapper and I feel like his upside is just about limitless. If you start at the beginning and listen to all of his mixtapes and albums up until Deal Or No Deal, I really feel like you can hear and understand his growth as an artist. I've been anticipating Deal Or No Deal for a while, especially after hearing Burn After Rolling (probably could be a regular album itself) and the leak of the single "This Plane". I bought Deal Or No Deal the morning it released and can proudly say this is the first album in years that I've felt comfortable and happy spending money on.
If you're a fan of real music, don't even hesitate to buy this album. "This Plane" is probably one of my favorite songs of all time, from any artist. And the rest of the album isn't far behind either!"
Amazing Album

"I truly wasn't expecting such a great effort. I saw your mixtape Burn After Rolling so many times until I decided to look you up and see what you were about. I can tell you really put yourself in Deal or No Dead. From start to finish I give it an A+. You are very clear and precise in your delivery. I wasn't expecting you to be so young because on records you carry yourself like a veteran in the rap game. I will promote you to anyone with ears because we are tired of the garbage being given to us from the record labels. My favorite tracks are:
Chewy
Goodbye
Hit tha Flo
Moola & the Guap
Studio Lovin
Superstar
Take Away
This Plane
Who I Am
Young Boy Talk
I haven't heard an album(period)that was this well put together in such a long time. I hope much success comes to you because you really deserve it. Keep putting out this good music."
