Remember last week when I said it would be interesting to see what Wiz Khalifa's Black & Yellow did if the Steelers won the Super Bowl? Well as it turns out, it didn't matter because the Packers won and Black & Yellow still rose to #1. And obviously this is Wiz's first #1 record. In other top 10 news, Dr. Dre's I Need A Doctor featuring Eminem and Skylar Green explodes onto the Hot 100, debuting at #5. Should we really start looking out for Detox? I'll believe it when it's in stores.
