Wiz Khalifa Reveals How Much He Charges for Shows & Guest Features — and It’s a Lot

Two decades into his decorated career, Wiz Khalifa remains in demand. On the heels of dropping his Kush + Orange Juice 2 sequel, the Taylor Gang boss stopped by The Joe Budden Podcast earlier this week.

Budden inquired about Khalifa’s rates during his hitmaking run of the mid-2010s, which was capped off by the Billboard Hot 100-topping No. 1 smash “See You Again” in 2015. While 10 years have passed, Wiz says his paychecks remain the same when it comes to his guest verses and shows.

“They’re still the same,” he insisted. “250.” Khalifa doubled down on his $250,000 feature price tag and says the six-figure sum doesn’t even come with a music video appearance, just a verse.

“Shows, honestly, go up to two Ms a show,” he added. “That’s because I have worldwide songs. I got stuff that people sing in China or Brazil or New Zealand and Thailand and Germany [and] Norway and stuff like Korea. I’m talking Saudi Arabia. You know what I’m saying?”

Even though the checks continued to clear, Wiz recently reflected on seeing the industry switch up on him depending on how hot he was at the time in the music game.

“Being in the industry, it’s clear when people are or aren’t f—ing with you,” Khalifa told the Call Her Daddy podcast on the April 18 episode. “When they’re f—ing with you, you’re at every party, every show, every this. When they’re not f—ing with you, you’re calling, and you’re like, ‘Ay, this party’s coming up.’ They’re like, ‘I know, but you don’t have an invite this year.’”

He continued: “You’re like, ‘Damn, they’re really ain’t f—ing with me.’ I didn’t do nothing. I didn’t change. I just maybe didn’t put up the numbers that they wanted me to or they got more people that they’re in line to do things for. So it’s like fighting for that position.”

Fifteen years after his classic mixtape, Wiz Khalifa returned on April 18 with his Kush + Orange Juice 2 sequel. The project features assists from Gunna, Ty Dolla $ign, Curren$y, Juicy J, Chevy Woods, Max B, Luh Tyler, O.T. Genesis and more.
