• Wiz Khalifa Inches Toward History, Fetty Wap Tops Streams on Hot 100

    "See You Again" by Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth spends a second week atop the Hot 100 during its second reign at the peak of popular songs. That makes it eight weeks in total for "Again," joining a rather elite clientele among hip-hop songs to top the list for that long (it's going to have to find five more weeks at no. 1 to grab the record however, a tie between Eminem's "Lose Yourself" and the Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow"). Most of the Hot 100 love comes from the song's dominance on the radio airplay charts, where it received 171 million spins.

  • Hot 97's Summer Jam 2015: Trey Songz, Wiz Khalifa, Dej Loaf, Ty Dolla $ign & Omarion Take Over MetLife Stadium [PHOTOS]

    With little sunlight left in the sky, Omarion opened Hot 97's annual concert Summer Jam around 6:30 p.m. and as a spotty crowd arrive, the former B2K member- turned-Love and Hip Hop Hollywood reality star warmed the crowd up to his old and new hits with MMG. Although, still mellow, the crowd quickly turned their moods way up once he began performing "Post To Be" and decided to play Jhene Aiko's verse just for his female fans, who burst out her signature line, "Eat the booty like groceries" before ending his set with his newest single, "I'm that N*gga."

  • Billboard Hot 100 vs. Official Charts Company: Mariah Carey, Wiz Khalifa and 40 Years of No. 1s

    Few people realize just how different the music across the pond is from that we listen to in America, that the Hot 100 doesn't exist in the UK, and that its equivalent to our singles chart doesn't just feature a whole bunch of American artists with even more One Direction and Ellie Goulding tracks. Music Times is looking back at the last five decades of music, and at the no. 1 hits on April 2 every ten years on the spot, going back to 1975. The ultimate contest, of course, is which country has better taste. Last month the win went to the UK in the best-of-five showdown. This month features Wiz Khalifa, Jason Derulo, Mariah Carey and more in the field.

  • Did David Guetta, Nicki Minaj Steal From Burning Man For BBMAs 'Hey Mama?'

    On Sunday, the biggest pop stars in the world descended on the MGM Grand in Las Vegas for the Billboard Music Awards, which celebrates those who have achieved the best in the charts. There were a whole host of different performances by the likes of Van Halen, Wiz Khalifa, Ed Sheeran and more, but a few have made headlines beyond that night. People have scratched their heads over the censorship that occurred during Kanye's set and perhaps more under the radar, but newly reported by Vice's Thump, is a potential theft of intellectual property by David Guetta and Nicki Minaj. The pair performed their hit single, "Hey Mama," and some of the background installations look almost identical to those of a Burning Man art installation known as the HYBYCOZO series.

  • Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa Launching DJ Careers: Can You Afford Them?

    Lil Wayne and Wiz Khalifa are two of the biggest rappers in the world. Weezy has accomplished a little more than Wiz, but both have had multiple number one hits and sold countless albums. Now they are taking their talents away from front of stage to a little further back into the DJ booth according to TMZ. According to the report, both Wiz and Weezy were inspired to take up the profession, which according to the new EDM film "We Are Your Friends" only takes a laptop, some talent and one song, by Snoop Dogg, who performs under the name DJ Snoopadelic.
