Rapper Wiz Khalifa and DJ Bonics performed during the halftime at the Pittsburgh Steelers vs Baltimore Ravens game on Sunday. Steelers and the Ravens are considered one of the NFL’s best rivalries and hence they have been historically pitted against each other in physical matchups over the years.
Going into halftime, the Ravens took a 13-7 lead on the strength of two red zone interceptions. The Terrible Towel Twirl was started by Wiz Khalifa, who is also a Pittsburgh native. He performed at halftime with D.J. Bonics.

The fans could not help but sing praises for Khalifa’s halftime show. “Smoking & watching wiz khalifa on the field at halftime for the steelers this a good moment in time for me I need to document this god bless #HereWeGo,” one of them tweeted, while another wrote, “Just saw Wiz Khalifa perform Black & Yellow in Pittsburgh…I’m pretty much an official resident now.”
One of the fans quipped, “@wizkhalifa make this halftime show good, better than the sh*teelers,” while another noted, “Pretty good halftime today for Steelers-Ravens in my humble opinion: Walter Payton Man of the Year video for Steelers nominee Cam Heyward, followed by Wiz Khalifa live performance.”
