Three New Tracks from Wiz Khalifa including the Black and Yellow Remix with Young Jeezy

I actually was a fan of his pioneering song, “Say Yeah” but after that didn’t blow this kid, Wiz Khalifa up, I fell off paying attention to him too tough while he diligently continued to solidify his base of support within the hip hop blog world. I get the feeling he’s getting a second kick at the can right now and will still end up becoming big though. To wit, this great remix of his still in-the-making hit, “Black and Yellow” with Young Jeezy. Wiz might even help rehabilitate Jeezy’s inexplicably stalled music career:

I think the public’s already decided this one and, unfortunately, the criteria’s a little different for women in this sexist world we live in. You can’t be the mature, old vet a la Hova swatting at the young upstart pretenders to the throne disinterestedly. Young & hot almost always trumps old & experienced as far as the female side of things goes, especially in the entertainment world.

Not that Kim doesn’t have half a point but on the other hand Nicki has kind of transcended any thing she ever did. Truthfully, Nicki is more on par with Lady Gaga and Gwen Stefani, artist perception-wise, than she is comparable to other female rappers at this point in the game.
