Well this blog has made it a week. Filled with one movie review, a top ten list, a couple of artist's of the week and one concert review this is starting to progress pretty well.
Today's artist of the day is Wiz Khalifa. A Pittsburgh native, Khalifa can be heard and seen around the Penn State area, as well as all over Pittsburgh and Harrisburg. I was fortunate to hear his rhymes two summers ago with "Say Yeah". Other than that though, not too many people know about his 7 other mixtapes or 2 albums, with First Flight on its way.
"Say Yeah" is no doubt a great song, but I wouldn't even call it his best. "Make It Hot" off of his upcoming album First Flight has the same great techno feel as "Say Yeah" but is better lyrically and just has a better feel at either a pregame or club.
Just as good as "Make It Hot" is "All In My Blood" off of Prince of the City and "I Choose You" off of Show and Prove. Both songs are ideal for a pregame or nice barbeque. "I Choose You" is another song that has successfully sampled the ever popular song by Willie Hutch.
Wiz Khalifa is only getting more and more popular as more of his songs are being released. Khalifa's second album, Deal or No Deal, is set for a November 24 release while First Flight, has a projected date of December 28, 2010.
