Making a few surprise stops by SXSW was probably a good idea for Wiz Khalifa. His new mixtape, Taylor Allderdice, came out Tuesday. It was downloaded so much and so quickly that it caused mixtape website Datpiff which hosted it to crash. He appeared both at Fader Fort, and also at the Mountain Dew Green Label Sound Showcase, with Juicy J and Lola Monroe. They are his new label Taylor Gang’s newest signees. During AllHipHop’s Breeding Ground showcase at the Vibe House, hosted by Chevy Woods, he brought out Wiz Khalifa and the rest of the Taylor Gang as well. It was announced on Twitter March 1st that he is now engaged to Amber Rose, his girlfriend who is both a singer and model.

Here is the brand new music video for “Brainstorm”, from the new album, directed by Bill Paladino. Oh yeah, and also here is some footage of the SXSW shows, courtesy of Pow-tv.net and All Hip Hop Video. Finally, one more also. Wiz does an in-studio performance of “It Could Be Easy” off the Mac And Devin Go To High School soundtrack, with the track’s producers 1500 or Nothin’.
