Wiz Khalifa’s Kush & Orange Juice 2 Is in the Works—And Fans Are Ready

Earlier this year, Wiz Khalifa stirred up some disappointment when he announced on the Back on Figg podcast that there wouldn’t be a sequel to his iconic Kush & Orange Juice mixtape. Fans were crushed, especially since the original project was the one that truly put Wiz on the map. Kush & Orange Juice wasn’t just any mixtape—it was the project that showcased Wiz at his rawest, with tight bars, unforgettable hooks, and a vibe that became legendary in hip-hop history.

For many, it marked the peak of a time when Wiz was laser-focused on his rapping, delivering carefree stoner anthems alongside sharp lyricism. The mixtape’s fusion of laid-back, melodic vibes with real content made it an instant classic. So when Wiz said that the era of Kush & Orange Juice had passed, a lot of fans—ourselves included—were understandably disappointed.

But in a surprising turn of events, Wiz seems to have changed his mind. In a recent interview with Jason Martin (formerly known as Problem) and Jay Worthy, the duo revealed that Kush & Orange Juice 2 is actually finished. There’s no official release date yet, but this news alone has reignited excitement for the project.

Fans can expect Kush & Orange Juice 2 to maintain its signature sound, with Cardo handling most of the production, just like he did on the first tape. However, this time around, there may be a little extra West Coast flavor added to the mix. Martin shared that Wiz asked them to sprinkle some post-production magic on the project, giving it a bit more California energy. With the touch of Jay Worthy and Martin, it sounds like we might get an exciting blend of Wiz’s classic sound with a fresh West Coast twist.

Hearing this update feels like redemption for the fans who were let down earlier this year. If Kush & Orange Juice 2 carries even a fraction of the magic that made the first installment so iconic, it’s bound to be a major moment for both Wiz and the culture at large. For now, we’ll be eagerly waiting for its drop—and hoping that Wiz is ready to serve up another classic.
