See You Again
Opening with Charlie Puth's beautiful and mournful voice, he expresses a kind of sadness that can only come from the loss of a friend. Wiz then pops in with a classic hip hop style, expressing a similar feeling of loss, but with a distinct flair. The song swells to an epic piano chorus with a hip hop beat backing it, and a group of "whoas" taking front and center.
