Over the past half-decade, Wiz Khalifa’s love of cannabis has escalated beyond something he merely does for fun. Back in 2014 he created a strain called Khalifa Kush, which he did in partnership with Cookie Co. 415. But now the “Black And Yellow” rapper now faces a lawsuit from the strain’s co-owner Carlos Arias, who sued both Khalifa and NFL Hall of Famer and Good Morning America host Michael Strahan, who was involved in the product. Arias claims he was left out of a cannabis licensing deal valued price at no less than $20,000,000.
According to court documents provided by The Blast, Arias, who is a director and managing agent for Cuzzi Consulting Inc., claims that Wiz and Strahan “pilfered more than $100,000,000 in assets from Nominal Defendants.” Arias’ lawsuit also claims a “breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting fiduciary breaches, conversion, corporate waste, tortious breach of an express or implied agreement, unjust enrichment, money had and received, professional negligence, civil conspiracy, and declaratory judgment arising out of Defendants’ wrongful conduct concerning the usurpation and misappropriation of assets from Nominal Defendants KKE USA and the Khalifa Kush Joint Venture.”
Arias’ lawsuit also says that Wiz orchestrated the scheme with help from “his entourage who conspired with the illicit assistance of outside counsel Pryor Cashman” in order to “funnel the proceeds from to themselves and certain third party beneficiaries.”
The lawsuit arrives after Wiz launched his delivery-only restaurant, HotBox By Wiz, which boasts a menu that references his music catalog and his love for marijuana.

Reetoxa channels shyness and charm in new single “The Lisa Song”
Reetoxa’s latest release, “The Lisa Song,” is a tender, emotionally curious new release that taps into the subtle magic of admiration and quiet attraction. The track is built around a simple but arresting lyrical conceit, and the centerpiece is a moment of wonder, “Hey Lisa why are you so shy.”
There is something immediately human in the way the song progresses, Reetoxa painting the picture of someone completely taken by the gentle presence of another. The lyric “her dimples make me stir and I cant look away” becomes the emotional center of the track, turning a small detail into a powerful emotional pull.
“The Lisa Song” is a song of intimacy, not of grand production or overcomplication. It is like a thought that you cannot get rid of, a feeling that gets louder the more you try to push it away. Reetoxa keeps it simple here, allowing sincerity to be the star.

The trapheaux gracefully glides over in new release “Marble Floors”
Trapheauxly’s latest release, “Marble Floors,” is a smooth, seductive single that combines clean, complex rap verses with melodic R&B. The song’s production, soulful vocal harmonies, and steady rhythmic pulse create a luxurious yet emotionally grounded atmosphere. All of these elements work together to create this atmosphere.
The most impressive aspect of it is the way it shifts from a catchy melodic hook to a rapid-fire delivery of the lyrics. One moment, “Marble Floors” is silky smooth, and the next, it is razor sharp. This contrast is what gives the musical its identity.
When it comes to lyrical concerns of intimacy, devotion, and elevated aesthetics, the image of marble floors appears, time and time again, as a symbol of elegance and emotional weight. Trapheauxly is a polished package that combines style, substance, and value that cannot be denied in terms of replay value.
