WIz Khalifa, Charlie Puth 'See You Again' First Rap Video To Hit 1 Billion Plays

This comes on the tear-jerking tribute video to Paul Walker that has become the soundtrack to those who not only want to hear the incredibly popular hit, but also those who are fans of Furious 7, which is one of the highest grossing films of all time.

Charlie Puth shared his excitement about the news on Twitter and why it is so important for him and hip-hop.

According to Complex, Wiz Khalifa is now the 10^th most played music video of all time, coming in just behind Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars with others from Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Meghan Trainor, Justin Bieber and of course, Psy all above one billion.

It used to be almost unconceivable for a song to hit one billion plays on YouTube until a few years ago. Now it is happening with increasing frequency as the service gains more users and more young fans turn to streaming as their primary source of music consumption. Expect to see many more tracks eclipse one billion in the next year.

Watch the video one more time below.
