Wiz Khalifa's major label debut album Rolling Papers recently reached 500,000 copies sold. The young Pittsburgh representer celebrated the milestone with a plaque presentation at the Atlantic Records offices. The label filled the room with black and yellow balloons.

The celebration came just a day after he performed alongside Detroit rapper Big Sean in New York City's rain-soaked Central Park last night [July 25].

Rolling Papers was released this past March and spawned the platinum-selling singles "Black and Yellow" and "Roll Up."
