Wiz and Amber 1
1. Amber Rose is not a singer. Or a rapper. Or, well, any type of musician.
Dude, you should know better than anyone what it takes to build yourself into a successful solo artist. You spent years toiling in obscurity and trying to find your sound in the studio before you finally hit your stride. You toured relentlessly to build a solid core fan base. You recorded dozens of mixtapes and hundreds of songs and performed at thousands of different concerts to make a name for yourself. So, you of all people should know all the hard work that goes into becoming an established musician. Do you really think Amber has the ambition and drive to do what you've done—or are you just giving her the easy way out here by attaching herself to your name? If you can honestly say she's as determined as you were when you first started, then by all means...

2. This whole "pretty face-turned-musician" thing just about never works.
So, Wiz, you've seen the new Kim Kardashian video for her song, "Jam (Turn It Up)," right? Um, okay. So, at the very least, we can agree that music isn't for everyone, huh? Just because people like to look at your pictures on the blogs doesn't necessarily mean that they want to hear you sing on a record. There's a looooooong history of socialites (hellooooo, Paris!), video vixens (Angel Lola Luv, anyone?), and other pretty faces who have tried to turn their good looks into a music career. But, unfortunately, that's not the way it works. And nothing makes us think that Amber's situation will turn out any differently.

Yo, Wiz, what's good with that Wiz/Big Sean/Curren$y project that we've heard so much about? Or that Adele collaboration you hinted at earlier this summer? Or your rumored project with fellow weed aficionado Snoop Dogg? Those are all collaborations you should be working on right now, not a project that just about no one in the world wants to hear. You've got plenty of other things on your plate right now, so why not try working on one of them now instead of working with Amber?

4. Wiz Khalifa would be better served working on a solid sophomore album than working on a vanity project like an album with Amber.
Last time we checked, Wiz, you had one major label album on your resume. We know you've got a diesel independent background—and we've got nothing but love for what you did as an independent artist—but as far as a major artist, you've still got some things to prove to the world. So, rather than risk putting out a subpar sophomore project, you should be spending all of your time right now working on that instead of working on a project with Amber. There will be plenty of time to take risks later. For now, you should focus on making this sophomore album even more successful than your first one.

5. If Wiz and Amber ever break up, the hip-hop community will never let him forget about the time he thought it was a wise decision to record music with her.
You can tattoo over her name, make excuses about why you chose to overlook her past, and grab yourself a new video vixen girlfriend if you ever break up with Amber, Wiz. But you cannot come around and delete the craptastic song or album that you created with her from all of our iTunes accounts. It'll be a blemish on your resume, a permanent mark on your record, and proof positive that you were, once upon a time, whipped beyond belief. So, you sure you still want to do this? Just. Say. NO!
