Rap-Up.com || New Music: Wiz Khalifa – ‘Black and Yellow’

Wiz Khalifa makes his major label debut with “Black and Yellow,” the first offering from his 2011 Rostrum Records/Atlantic Records release. The Pittsburgh-based MC made a name for himself on the indie circuit, but has been receiving lots of shine in recent months. Drake even offered him an opening spot on his tour, to which he politely declined. Instead, you can catch him on his own 50-city trek, which kicks off September 16 in Philadelphia.

The 22-year-old puts his Pittsburgh Pirates pride on display on “Black and Yellow.” Listen below.

I think people should listen to his earlier mixtapes to appreciate him because his mixtapes are what made him big with his fans. I’ve been listening to him since early 06 and I’ve been disappointed with him. If there is one mixtape you should listen to him, that would be “Flight School.” My personal favorite.

this is just another great hit… everytime wiz does a joint its always taylored. you can say what ever you want about him changing his style or dissaponting but the fact of the matter is his style is so versitile he can do just about anything. and black and yellow is deffinently a radio friendly song…but at the same time it is so taylored and true to his roots….listen to the lyrics black and yellow…pitsburg steelers black/yellow unies
pitsburg pirates black/yellow unies
his challe(dodge challenger) black and yellow
his zig zag man chains one black and one yellow
its all real music…u cant help but appreciate this if you are a true taylor>>

it’s cool…but it’s not strong enough to be the first offering from the upcoming album. i just saw a “day in the life of wiz” video recently and it really got me interested in seeing what he would do next. this song is not going to get a lot of spins, which he will need in order to breakthrough the market and establish himself if he’s looking to sell records and have a real chance at a career. he’s in the major leagues now…not the mixtape league.

i been fuckin wit wiz since flight school so im not just comparin this 2 kush & oj but i agree wit wat “listen” said this is just not a strong enough single it seems like he was tryna really hit it big on the charts wit this 1 & besides the fact that its just really not that great of a song its perfect 4 radio play which is why it still mite do ok on the charts if they decide 2 really push it… all in all tho i feel like this isnt really the wiz that alot of us have grown 2 know & luv & i hope that the album is better than the single
but make no mistake its still Taylor Gang or Die!!!

who so-ever doubts this hit isn’t gettin it. he always tryin to put pit on the map. this track is sooo strong for that fact alone. catchy hook, sick beat, smooth flow with perfect timing. take it for what it’s worth y’all. wiz is here to stay in the game and the only direction is up yo! taylor made taylor gang taylor swang bitches!

you aint seirously? wtf nigga you cant compare wiz to eminem. eminem has been in the game alot longer than wiz and firstly wiz aint even tryna say he’s better he is just doin his own thing. so why would yu even come up here and say eminem is betta… damn haters.

and quit hatin on this song y’all. yu cant expect wiz tu make tha same dam music with tha same dam beats on every album. this song is a risk sure, but he is droppin it becos it is goin to appeal to the materialistic people who only like music about money and fast cars. this is a radio jam to get hiz name owt there. he’s gonna get alot more fans is he releases this and he will have a variety of fans.. and soon he will b takin over tha game.. (in my opinion anyway). if he drops this reccord he has more of a chance of getting noticed by radios etc. and soon white ppl will b luvin him. he isnt a different person just cos of 1 damn song.
& btw, wiz and cudi are so unique they dnt sound anithin lyk eachother dammmnn.

taylor gang or f**k susan boyle

i used to like wiz khalifa…but his new shit is awful.

Im tired of rims, bitches, money n RAIN MAN.
I was dissapointed to hear his FIRST single on mainstream industry owned of course, tv n radio to be about a car….comon wiz…own yourself.

Ill stick to my uncorrupted artist over at Slaughterhouse and my artists. I don’t need my music influences to be reppin’ baphomet or the eye of providence all over their videos. Tired of it.

Do your thing Wiz, I hope it last for you.
