Wiz Khalifa and his team work primarily in the U.S., where an artist as big as Taeyeon would have total and complete control over their activities. While U.S. It’s clear after talking to Wiz Khalifa’s team that these tweets referenced and mentioned Taeyeon directly, instead of the 2016 MAMA or SM Entertainment, due to a complete and total misunderstanding. The fact that Teyeon backed out of our performance caught me off guard too but never accept rejection as failure. Never apologize for being yourself and never let anyone else’s self projection determine your worth. It was not only a shock to fans but also to Wiz Khalifa and his team that Taeyeon would not be performing on stage with him for “See You Again.” According to DJ Bonics, “We were made aware that Taeyeon would not be collaborating with Wiz for his stage only minutes before he went on stage.”įans were incredibly disappointed, and the reasons behind the collaboration being cancelled were not clear until Wiz Khalifa began tweeting about the performance. Wiz Khalifa Only Discovered Taeyeon Would Not Perform With Him Minutes Before His Stage It should not be taken lightly that Taeyeon was given the opportunity to replace Charlie Puth, as the singer has extremely strong personal attachments to the song. Wiz Khalifa has not released a remix of the song, and replacing Charlie Puth for a collaboration is a huge honor. The collaboration between Taeyeon and Wiz Khalifa would not only have been huge for Taeyeon but for the K-Pop industry as a whole. It is also the most liked YouTube video in the world, beating out PSY‘s “Gangnam Style.” The song spent 12 non-consecutive weeks on top of the US Billboard Hot 100, one of the most prestigious charts in the world.
The song “See You Again” has 2.2 billion views on YouTube and is Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth’s biggest single to date, according to Billboard. The reactions were immediate and the leaked footage caused Wiz Khalifa’s performance to become the most discussed event at the 2016 MAMA. It was not announced that this artist would be Taeyeon. Koreaboo first broke the story that the K-Pop artist was supposed to be Taeyeon with leaked rehearsal footage, following Wiz Khalifa’s 2016 MAMA performance, where Taeyeon was not present. Wiz Khalifa was first announced to be attending the 2016 MAMA at a press conference held by the organizers, CJ E&M, where the award show’s Director Kang Hee Jung revealed, “Wiz Khalifa is a recognized hip-hop icon, and he’s going to be collaborating with a K-Pop artist for a special performance.”
