    Wiz Khalifa has seen success with a single before when "Black and Yellow" went to number one and "We Dem Boyz" became one of the 2014 summer anthems, but "See You Again" may have the legs to top both of them.

  • Billboard Hot 100 vs. Official Charts Company by Decade: Wiz Khalifa, Oasis, Gwen Stefani and 40 Years of No. 1s

    Few people realize just how different the music across the pond is from that we listen to in America, that the Hot 100 doesn't exist in the UK, and that its equivalent to our singles chart doesn't just feature a whole bunch of American artists with even more One Direction and Ellie Goulding tracks. Music Times is looking back at the last five decades of music, and at the no. 1 hits on April 2 every ten years on the spot, going back to 1975. The ultimate contest, of course, is which country has better taste. Last month the win went to the UK in the best-of-five showdown. This month features Wiz Khalifa, Gwen Stefani, Oasis and more in the field.

    With all of the success of "See You Again" it could be easy for Wiz Khalifa to sit back, light up some green and watch the money pile up.

He is giving back to his fans today with a new, short single titled "Good For Us" where he raps over the timeless summery beat from Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing."

  • Wiz Khalifa, Curren$y 'Weed Naps'

    Wiz Khalifa, Curren$y and marijuana - there are few threesomes more fitting than that. The pair (Wiz Khalifa and Curren$y, though I image number three was present) recently announced a new collaborative EP titled #2009 and we now have the second whiff of what the EP will sound like. The pair in a spur of the moment decision shared the first track from the EP, "Weed Nap."
