“Stoner’s Night” Album By Juicy J And Wiz Khalifa Has Been Released

The Taylor Gang members are back with the “Stoner’s Night.” One of the most prominent U.S. cannabis promoters, Juicy J and Wiz Khalifa, deliver their new 13-track album. The record hit streaming services on Feb. 11.

It is also noteworthy that Wiz Khalifa and Juicy J teamed up with TM88 in 2016 for “TGOD Mafia: Rude Awakening.” The Taylor Gang emcees have also worked together on several singles over the past few years.

This will be Wiz Khalifa’s first release since the release of Wiz Got Wings with J. Sledgren and Cardo last December. In addition to his work, the Pittsburgh-raised rapper has collaborated on multiple projects with New Orleans rapper Curren$y.

Several Platinum-certified albums from Khalifa’s solo discography, including Rolling Papers, O.N.I.F.C., and Blacc Hollywood. With the help of Three Six Mafia, Juicy created projects and solo initiatives such as Hustle Till I Die and Stay Trippy.

Having been a member of Memphis’ rap group Three 6 Mafia, Juicy J rose to prominence in the music industry. There are also music collaboration projects in the discography of the Oscar winner, including endeavors with Lex Luger. Juicy’s most recent solo album is ‘The Hustle Continues,’ released in 2020.

A successful rapper, such as Juicy J, separating from his former rap group, embarking on a solo career, and releasing many albums, including a duo album with Wiz Khalifa, is a blessing. Dedicating himself to doing what he loves in life is a very admirable trait, if I may say so myself. Let this new album bring Khalifa and Juicy much success and many more in the future.

Stars Have Dominated The Academy Awards

Hip-hop stars have dominated the Academy Awards

The Academy Awards for the Best Original Song have been in existence since the mid-1930s. Stars have dominated the Academy Awards, with three hip-hop stars having received Oscars for their songs’ appearances in film. 

Eminem: The first winner 

Marshall Mathers, a.k.a. Eminem, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 2003. Barbara Streisand presented the award to Eminem’s associate, who helped him compose the song, instead of the hip-hop star, who could not attend. One of the biggest songs of Eminem’s entire career, the song hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Mathers proved he could perform the song 17 years later and still receive standing ovations.

Juicy J gaining the golden statue

Juicy J won the Oscar at the Academy Awards Show in 2006 for the song “It’s Hard out Here for a Pimp” for the movie ‘Hustle and Flow.’ Juicy J’s group Three 6 Mafia wrote the song, but Terrance Howard and Taraji P. Henson performed it in the film. In 2008 it made number 80 on VH1’s list for Best Hip-Hop Songs of All Time. 

H.E.R is the most recent Academy Award winner 

H.E.R won the Best Original Song Award at the 2021 Oscars with “Fight For You.” H.E.R. performed the song during the pre-show ceremony from behind a drum kit. The music had a distinctly ’60s vibe to it, thanks to the jazzy vocals, strings and brass she featured, along with backup singers and guitarists. Speeches by the murdered, visionary Black Panthers’ leader Fred Hampton were intercut throughout the song and the rich, choreographed imagery of the performers onstage.
