The Source is closing out #AWXI with a bang

To help close out what’s been an exciting AdWeek 2014, Pittsburgh native Wiz Khalifa will be bringing his talents to the Webster Hall (125 E. 11th St) stage in New York City for The Wrap Party, a concert celebrating #AWXI alongside The Source Magazine and Verizon. Wiz, a Rostrum and Atlantic Records recording artist, is having a great 2014. He released six singles, among them “We Dem Boyz” and “You & Your Friends,” and all 6 charted in the Top 40 on the R&B/Hip-Hop charts on Billboard. To boot, his third album, Blacc Hollywood, clocked in at #1 on the Billboard 200 the week of its release, with first-week sales of roughly 90,000.

 In addition to his impeccable chart year, Wiz graced the cover of our 2014 Power 30/SOURCE360 issue, which is currently on newsstands. In his interview with our Chairman, L. Londell McMillan, he discusses everything from his unique tour experiences to what it’s like being a father, not to mention his favorite memory of The Source. 

This past fall The Source produced it’s first SOURCE360 live marketplace, concert & festival. The Source received an official Proclamation from the Mayor of The City of New York for producing this highly successful experiential activation in the Downtown Brooklyn Cultural District.
