Produced by Lex Luger, "Cabin Fever" is a return to the more lyric-oriented style Wiz employed during his rise up the rap ranks and sees him upping the ante with a bevy of quotables that rate high on the Richter Scale. To get fans hyped up for his long-awaited Cabin Fever tape, Wiz dropped the title track to the project more than a year prior to its release and needless to say, the song did exactly what he intended. Leaving the naysayers without a case to make in regards to his rep as one of the best young stars in the game, "Homicide" more than gets the job done. Wiz doles out murderous bars with the calm of a smooth assassin. "I got my wings when I was young so I tend to fly / I put my chain on, they saying it's homicide / And I'm killin' 'em, it's homicide / I'm killin' 'em, it's homicide / I got my change up, they looking like they surprised / Niggas hatin' on me hard cause my paper right," he rhymes. With Chevy Woods riding shotgun, Wiz goes in over the sinister DJ Spinz and RMB Justize-produced track and turns in one of his more addictive offering in his mixtape catalog.

Prior to dropping the mixtape, he previewed a song called "Homicide" on his web series, which sent fans into a frenzy and when the full version drop, it more than lived up to the hype. Kush & Orange Juice may be Wiz Khalifa's most ballyhooed mixtape, but Cabin Fever remains the most anticipated project that he's ever released. Wiz chucks the deuce to his haters while putting his days of label purgatory behind him. "I'm screaming fuck them niggas who hated, I'm money affiliated / Speculating me landing, must have got me mistaken with lame niggas / Know you gone get high as fuck as long as the planes with you / Left that major situation alone and became richer," he raps. The LP's lone single, "This Plane," would play a big part in those numbers and would widen Wiz's fanbase even further. The album, Deal or No Deal, would be his second official LP and would find his stock rise on a mainstream level, peaking in the Top 10 of the Billboard Top Rap Albums chart and selling over 5,000 units in its first week with minimal promotion. Wasting no time putting gears in motion, Wiz ended 2009 with a bang, dominating November with an album and mixtape. album, First Flight, Wiz decided to part ways with the label in July of 2009 and continue the independent grind he'd been on with Rostrum. He then followed it up with his major-label bow, Rolling Papers.Following years of false starts and push backs to his planned Warner Bros. In the fall of 2010, Wiz Khalifa landed a surprise number-one hit in his hometown tribute "Black & Yellow." The song became ubiquitous when the Pittsburgh Steelers adopted it for their 2011 Super Bowl run. It made a new deal - this time with Atlantic Records – seem all but inevitable. By 2010, Wiz's time had arrived, thanks to a new class of emcees that mixed a street ethos with fashion-forward cool and deft rhymes. Undaunted, Wiz continued to build support for his cleverly rendered hipster thug style, issuing numerous mixtapes as well as a potent indie album, 2009's Deal or No Deal. After two more failed singles, "All in My Blood (Pittsburgh Sound)" and "Youngin On His Grind," Warner dropped him. The deal yielded an acclaimed single, "Say Yeah," which turned Alice Deejay's rave chestnut "Better Off Alone" into a strip-club anthem the song got plenty of buzz on the Internet but barely skirted the U.S. Records for his precocious 2006 indie album Show and Prove. The Pittsburgh rapper landed a deal with Warner Bros. Wiz Khalifa is 'proof' that persistence pays off.
