The sentence was delivered in absentia after Romanian prosecutors successfully appealed an earlier ruling that had only imposed a fine on the rapper.

Wiz Khalifa, whose real name is Cameron Jibril Thomaz, was arrested in July 2024 after he allegedly smoked marijuana on stage during a music festival in Costinești, a popular seaside resort town in Romania.

He was briefly detained before being released and later issued a public apology, stating that he had meant no disrespect to the country or its laws.

Initially, the Constanța Tribunal fined the rapper 3,000 lei (approximately $690). However, prosecutors from Romania’s Directorate for Investigating Organized Crime and Terrorism (DIICOT) appealed the decision, arguing that the punishment was too lenient.

The appeal was upheld, and the court subsequently sentenced Wiz Khalifa to nine months’ imprisonment for the unlawful possession of dangerous drugs for personal use. Reports indicate that the ruling is final under Romanian law.

Wiz Khalifa is currently in the United States, and it remains unclear whether Romanian authorities will seek his extradition. There is also no immediate indication that he will serve the prison sentence.

Romania enforces strict anti-drug laws, with cannabis illegal for both recreational and medical use. Under Romanian legislation, possession of drugs for personal use can result in prison sentences ranging from three months to two years, or a fine, depending on the substance involved.

Wiz Khalifa’s favorite pastime has landed him in legal trouble since he has just been sentenced to serve nine months in a Romanian prison for weed possession.

An individual has gained attention online due to the extraordinary lengths he went to in order to catch the attention of Hollywood actor Seth Rogen, and American rappers Wiz Khalifa and Snoop Dogg.

This comes weeks after Snoop Dogg responded to a news story that he has a personal blunt roller for whom he pays over $40,000 per year.

“Snoop Dogg employs a full-time blunt roller who makes between $40,000 and $50,000 a year,” Uber Facts shared on Twitter.

Snoop in response confirmed the story and added that the person’s salary has been upgraded because of the ongoing inflation in the United States.

American Rapper, Wiz Khalifa is currently facing fire from Wizkid FC over a caption he posted on Twitter.

Just recently, US rapper Wiz Khalifa took to his Twitter page with a photo post and a caption that got tongues rolling.

The rapper simply captioned the image “more empathy, less ego”

Big Wiz had announced the title of his album, “More Love Less Ego” in November 2021 and disclosed that it will be dropping this year (2022).

The similarity in title had fans taking to the comment section to call Khalifa out.

Wiz Khalifa has responded to rapper Gillie da Kid, who accused him of having his Instagram account suspended due to bullying allegations.

It all started when the younger rapper made a snide remark about Khalifa’s workout clothes.

They traded shots, with Gillie saying “I had to unfollow him today. You giving up strap-and-ball action, man.”

Wiz Khalifa replied with a post in which he said: “Not responsible for your childhood trauma.”

To which Gillie, in the comments, replied, “Childhood drama man put ur shorts on Wiz.”

On Saturday (April 9), Gillie claimed Wiz had his Instagram page taken down over jokes about his scantily-clad workouts.

“U tell a ni$$a put sum shorts on he tells IG ur bullying him and gets ur page deactivated,” he tweeted. “ni$$a I was playing des rappers so pu$$y.”

Recall, Mp3bullet.ng reported that at Jay-Z’s Made In America event a few weeks ago, Big Wiz perform Essence remix alongside Canadian singer Justin Bieber on stage. He was the first African musician to perform on the stage.

This post appeared first on Mp3bullet.ng... Read Original post on Ben Simmons, Kevin Hart, and Wiz Khalifa Spotted At Wizkid’s Concert..

The singer, who describes his style as Afro-fusion, is one of the ‘big boys’ in today’s industry. All thanks to his fusion music, which has dance hall, reggae and afrobeat influences.

He broke out, in 2012, with the summer hit “Like To Party,” which was a club Anthem in 2012. The video also enjoyed massive rotations on TV Channels, nationwide. With that, Burna Boy, became a bonafide. And he’s been dishing out more and music, since then.

He’s got three albums, an EP and two mixtapes in his nearly-a-decade career, and like I said earlier, he’s a force to reckon with.

In this edition of Mp3bullet’s “Facts You Don’t Know” series, we present to you, seven previously unknown facts about OluwaBurna.

• PORT-HARCOUT’S SON

Many people think Burna Boy’s Yoruba, because he has a powerful command of the dialect, and he vibes in Yoruba at times. But, in fact, Burna, whose real name is Damini Ogulu is a Port-Harcourt boy, and only lived in Lagos (where he must have learnt the Yoruba).

Duncan Mighty isn’t the only PH son blessing the industry, after all.

• NEXT RATED 2013

When artists don’t get Awards, we really don’t care if they were nominated or not. And that’s why many people don’t know Burna Boy also had the chance of getting the Next Rated, in 2013. Then it’d have been, Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy… But he lost to Sean Tizzle. He’s yet to get any award from The Headies, though.

• COLLABO/ HITS

Burna Boy is one of the few, if not the only artist that has worked with the powerful trio, Wizkid (Jah’s Love), Davido (Trumpet) and Olamide (Omo Wobe Anthem). He’s also worked with a wide array of top creatives including, Phyno, M.I, Shank, Skales, AKA, Major Lazer, DJ Jimmy Jatt, Airboy and more.

Interestingly, most of his biggest hits are solo (Like To Party, Tonight, Soke, Check & Balance, Yawa Dey, Ye), but still, any jam he jumps on Issa Banger. Meanwhile, he has a hit with D’banj, “Won Da Mo!”

• WEED

If Burna doesn’t roll up some joint, he can’t vibe. He cannot do without smoking some weed. You’ve probably seen him smoking weed in some of his videos, and you said to yourself “na just video he’ll be gentle in real life”? We’re not saying he’s not gentle, but I can assure you, he is to our industry what Wiz Khalifa is to America.

He’s said to be a regular face at the ‘New Afrika Shrine, and we all know Fela. (You can ask Wizkid, too!)

• FELA TATTOO

Burna Boy’s biggest influence is the late Afrobeat Legend, Fela Kuti. His granddad was Fela’s manager, and so, he probably consumed a lot of Fela materials, as a kid. You can hear it on songs like “Soke” and “Gbona.”

In 2013, Burna decided to tattoo Fela’s face, on his arm. He has a lot of tattoos, so you may not know Fela is actually on his right arm. But he is!

• DRAKE

Think Wizkid is the only Nigerian artist that has linked up with Canadian rapper, Drake? Oh, no. Burna Boy, too.

Last year, when the “God’s Plan” rapper, was working on his playlist. He reached out to Burna, for music – a possible collaboration, that is. Burna Boy had sent about four tracks to the Drake camp, including one titled “More Life,” which ended up being the name of Drake’s album.

However, Drake didn’t make use of the Burna songs. He only sampled one of ’em, and didn’t even give Burna Boy any credit. Imagine.

• 50, 000 COPIES A DAY

Burna has dropped three albums. “On A Spaceship,” “L.I.F.E” and the most recent, “Outside.”

“L.I.F.E.,” which stands for Leaving an Impact For Eternity, was said to have sold 50K copies, on the day of the release.

According to him, that was what gave him the courage to carry on with his music. So, he kept pushing.

Now, he’s one of the biggest arts on the continent!
