Wiz Khalifa (born Cameron Jibril Thomaz on September 8, 1987, in Minot, North Dakota) is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter known for his laid-back, stoner persona and hit songs. His stage name comes from a combination of “Khalifa,” which means “successor” in Arabic, and “Wiz,” short for “wise.” Khalifa rose to fame with his 2011 hit single “Black and Yellow,” which became an anthem for Pittsburgh sports teams. His album Rolling Papers (2011) was a commercial success, featuring the chart-topping single “See You Again,” a tribute to actor Paul Walker, which became one of the most streamed songs of all time. Khalifa is also known for his distinctive style, incorporating hip-hop, pop, and a laid-back approach to life and music, as well as his advocacy for cannabis culture. He’s built a successful career with albums, tours, and entrepreneurial ventures.
