Wiz Khalifa Discusses His Influences

Wiz Khalifa revealed to Nardwuar his admiration for Devin the Dude and reminisced on his earliest experiences listening to Snoop Dogg. Believing that he's the latest in a long line of marijuana-friendly emcees, Wiz talked about Devin's influence on him and his legacy as an artist.

“Yo, this is like a classic marijuana smoking, rolling [song]," Wiz said of Devin's "Doobie Ashtray." "This is just a good weed song, but Devin The Dude he’s very, very, very musical,” Wiz explained. “Very underrated and he’s just like one of the best to ever do it as far as the genre that I can consider myself to be carrying on the torch for. So shout out to Devin The Dude as well. I never really got to publicly say that, but Devin is really The Dude.”

Wiz also mentioned how he was introduced to Snoop's music around the age of six via his mother's friend.

“Yes, shout out to her ratchet ass…She used to listen to Doggystyle and her son his name was Lil Ray and he had a box with a rat-tail in the back. He was bad as shit and that was my homie,” said the rapper.
