If you are from Pittsburgh then there is probably a chance you have heard of Wiz Khalifa. He is a local rapper from the area and one of the only one’s that has received national airplay and in my opinion is one of most talented artist from this area. You may have heard his single “Say Yeah”, which was popular a year or so ago. It is not often you hear of a rapper from Pittsburgh, especially one that is good. Earlier this year Wiz released the mixtape Kush and Orange Juice, which was available for free download. Because of the popularity of the mixtape it was the #1 trending topic on twitter and ranked #1 on Google’s hot search trends.
Gearing up for his new album to be released in 2011 Wiz has released the single “Black and Yellow”, which is by far one of his best songs and the video is in my opinion the best music video that I know of that showcases Pittsburgh. The entire video was shot in Pittsburgh at various locations. If you are from the Pittsburgh area you can point out many of the locations. There are Terrible Towel’s all over the place in the video and even Steelers linebacker Lamaar Woodley is in the video! Also shoutout to my friend Shawna who is in the video (the dark-haired girl with the glasses). Check out the video below…
The video is currently #1 on MTV2! Let me know what you think of the song and the video in the comments!
