Wiz Khalifa is lame and Katy Perry is semi- l3git

             Hey ladies and gentlemen this is my 3rd choice blog. So I was browsing various interesting subjects on the internet when I came across Wiz Khalifa and his rise to stardom. Apparently his real name is Cameron Jibril Thomaz and he came from a military family, therefore his family moved around to many places like Germany, Japan, England, and finally Pittsburgh. His first stage name was Wisdom Khalifa which might not sound very good but thankfully he soon changed it to a more succinct and well-chosen name, that name was Wiz Khalifa. Thomaz changed Wisdom to Wiz and he kept Khalifa which meant, "success," in Arabic. Unlike many recording artists Wiz had a fairly easy way to stardom compared to the harsh roads other artists have taken for a similar position. In 2005, Khalifa dropped his first mixtape which generated alot of buzz in and around Pittsburgh. After all the hype his mixtape got he quickly dropped his first commercial album which got quite bit of street cred from reputable websites in the hiphop community. Warner Bros. quickly signed him after he was getting all the hype but soon after they parted ways. Good fortune soon befell Khalifa because a major hiphop recording company called ,"Atlantic Records," signed him and he has been with them since. Only stardom tenfold has followed and now Wiz Khalifa is one of the richest rappers in the world.
              Katy Perry, the international pop sensation and also number 4 on Maxim's top 100 hottest women in the world list, had a much harder road then Wiz Khalifa. Her real name was Kathryn Hudson and she was born in Santa Barbara, California to a conservative family. Katy had a restrictive family of pastors who didn't let her watch many cable channels or listen to rock or popular music. Gradually rebelling as she got older she released her first semi-popular song, "You're so gay," which Madonna really liked but it took her 3 failed record deals to finally get that song with Capitol. Soon she gained her hard-earned fame through her hit song ,"I Kissed a Girl," which boosted her into the billboard charts and into the upper reaches of the economic system. She became famous and has been dominating the pop charts since then.
             Wiz Khalifa, in my opinion is a weak rapper with songs that contain too much sing-songy tunes and choruses. Wiz Khalifa is simply not a good rapper who gained fame through hard work, he was just a lucky guy who was in the right place at the right time. Katy Perry is a little better but only because of her originality, while Wiz Khalifa can only rap about one subject, Weed.
