The bobblehead, created in collaboration with the Pittsburgh rapper and his company, Taylor Gang, features his tattoos, jewelry and attire. It also has a sound chip that plays “Black and Yellow,” the hit that has become an anthem at Pirates games.

Khalifa has often been seen throwing out the first pitch, wearing Pirates gear and featured in Pirates content, including last year’s City Connect jersey release. He is scheduled to make an appearance during Yinzerpalooza weekend at PNC Park with more details to follow.

Khalifa will be featured in the first-ever “Sudden Little Thrills” music fest in Pittsburgh in September.
