The rappers drop the visual for their third single off of their collaborative album "2009."

Vibin' out with a vintage black-and-white feel, Wiz Khalifa and Curren$y released their latest visual for their single "Plot Twist." The two rappers have joined forces for their collaborative project 2009, a 14 track album that features artists such as Compton rapper Problem and hitmaker Ty Dolla $ign. "Plot Twist" is the third video that Wiz and Curren$y have dropped from 2009, following singles "Forever Ball" and "The Life."

If you're curious as to why we're getting 2009 in 2019, it all goes back to when these two rappers crossed paths a decade ago.

"Back in 2009, Pittsburgh buzzmaker Wiz Khalifa and New Orleans rapper Curren$y were two artists at crossroads in their careers," a press release states. "The pair met on MySpace and formed a brotherhood through a mutual admiration of music and weed. The result of that bond was the release of their joint mixtape How Fly, a 15-track collection which defined the generation of blog era rap. How Fly featured lush production, slick rhymes and showcased the palpable chemistry between the emerging emcees."

Wiz and Curren$y are currently co-headling the "2009 Tour" that began in early February and finalizes at the beginning of March.
