Multi-Platinum certified Grammy and Golden Globe nominated recording artist Wiz Khalifa has partnered with BMG through Taylor Gang Ent. to release his upcoming studio album, Wizzlemania. The announcement follows the release of the album’s first single “You” featuring Ty Dolla $ign, produced by Cardiak, Wu10, and Hitmaka.
“I’m excited to join the BMG family and continue to release tracks for all my fans to love starting with ‘You,'” Khalifa shares. “I can’t wait for everyone to hear the full album soon!”
The album is expected to drop later this year.
Khalifa is currently wrapping up his European tour and follows his The Good Trip Tour, which completed seven shows in seven days, with Khalifa performing alongside Joey Bada$$, Berner, Smoke Dza, and Chevy Woods. He will continue his tour this summer by kicking off the 33-date High School Reunion Tour in July with Snoop Dogg, Too $hort, Warren G, and Berner, and special guest DJ Drama.
Khalifa burst onto the scene with the release of his first major label debut album, Rolling Papers in 2011. The album spawned the hit singles “Black and Yellow,” “Roll Up,” and “No Sleep” before going on to earn Best New Artist at the 2011 BET Awards and Top New Artist at the 2012 Billboard Music Awards. “Black and Yellow” also earned him his first two Grammy nominations for Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song.
