Wiz Khalifa Lands The Cover Of Rolling Stone

It's already been a banner year for the Pittsburgh rhymesayer, Wiz Khalifa. From performing at the Pittsburgh Steelers' playoff game to achieving chart-topping status with his "Black And Yellow" single, to dating a stunning model, Wiz is steadily making headlines.

Gracing the cover of the prestigious Rolling Stone magazine seems like the perfect stepping stone to a budding career as he readies his Rolling Papers debut album.

Dubbed as "Hip-Hop's Rookie of the Year," the Taylor Gang leader was also given the same honor by The Source magazine in November.

Wiz is sharing the cover with Jersey Shore's Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi for the issue entitled the "Hot List" special but he knows being hot doesn't last forever.

Khalifa told MTV News in an interview released prior to the cover, "I've done a lot of work to get where I'm at, but I have to keep working. And, hopefully, I'll be the best artist of the year."

What do you think of Wiz on the cover?
