Uh oh, it looks like it was originally ‘Pink and Yellow’. Wtf is a pink and yellow tho? Wait, jewelry perhaps.

In 2011, Wiz Khalifa blew up thanks to his breakout single, “Black and Yellow.” But, a year later, a rapper has come forward claiming the Pittsburgh rap star stole the song from him.

According to TMZ, a Pennsylvania rapper named Maxamillion has filed a $2.3 million lawsuit against Wiz, claiming the idea for the hit “Black and Yellow” came from his lesser known song called “Pink N Yellow.”

Max claims he copyrighted his single in 2008, three year before Wiz released and became a superstar off his smash single.

Despite the claims, a source close to Wiz tells TMZ that “Wiz has never heard of this guy … it’s just a plot that happens all the the time to rappers to get money. This is just some no-name rapper who wants to get paid.”

Max’s attorney, however, says that far from the truth, because he says the two sides previously discussed a potential settlement.

However, Wiz’s camp wasn’t open to the deal.

Wiz had not commented on the lawsuit as of press time.
