And pan hard, apparently…

Michelle Myers: Shout out to all the frat boys born during the Clinton administration who needed some ego-flattery to soundtrack the hours they spend throwing filthy ping-pong balls into cups of slightly rotten keg beer. Congratulations on another semester of not flunking out of college while maintaining a serious binge drinking problem! This one’s for you.

Alfred Soto: With “Black and Yellow” a deserved hit, Wiz works on his choruses, which benefit from the full melodic treatment. He’s so vacant, so dull about fame and ballin’ that I’d prefer he shout the kind of nonsense that got him his first number one.

Anthony Easton: I don’t trust the person bragging about his champagne budget to have good taste in champagne. Sort of like how the guy who crows about his giant cock actually in my experience has a small- to medium-sized one.

Brad Shoup: Man, he really cares about that swag. It must be gone, cos this shit is labored. There’s a weird disconnect between track and rapper; the noodling riff on the chorus scans as playful, but it’s buried in synthwalls and Khalifa’s shrug of a maxim.

Katherine St Asaph: Work lazy, play rotely, more like. I hope the sample kid at least got a juice box for his ceaseless work. Preferably laced with tranquilizers.

Jonathan Bogart: It’s Wiz Khalifa, so it’s gonna be another half-rapped, half-chant-sung anthem to whatever. And maybe I’m just carrying over the jeans/car/beer ad sentimentality of the “remember when this used to be a country where we MADE stuff with our HANDS like MEN” video, but when topic is the only thing differentiating your songs from one another, this is a fruitful one to work with.

Will Adams: Benny Blanco’s and Stargate’s electro blips glide easily enough to match Wiz’s breezing through the verses, but his half-hearted singing in the chorus utterly fails to sell his message. The weak helium-hook drops the ball as well, making as much impact as the faux-spirational video that looks like it spliced in footage from Nike and Chevy commercials.

Colin Small: Wiz Khalifa needs to stop going dumpster diving at Rick Ross’s house.
