Wiz Khalifa, whose real name is Cameron Jibril Thomaz, is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. He was born on September 8, 1987, in Minot, North Dakota. Khalifa's parents divorced when he was just three years old, and he moved with his mother to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Khalifa's interest in music began at a young age, and he started writing and recording his own songs when he was just a teenager. In 2005, he released his debut mixtape titled “Prince of the City: Welcome to Pistolvania.” This mixtape gained him some recognition in the underground hip-hop scene.
However, it was Khalifa's mixtape “Kush & Orange Juice” in 2010 that brought him mainstream success. The mixtape received critical acclaim and helped him secure a record deal with Atlantic Records. That same year, he released his first studio album, “Rolling Papers,” which included the hit singles “Black and Yellow” and “Roll Up.” The album peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 chart.
Since then, Wiz Khalifa has released several successful albums, including “O.N.I.F.C.” (2012), "Blanc Hollywood” (2014), and “Khalifa” (2016). He is known for his laid-back and melodic rap style, often incorporating themes of partying, love, and marijuana into his music.
Apart from his music career, Khalifa has also ventured into other areas. He has launched his own clothing line called “Taylor Gang” and has made appearances in movies such as “Mac & Devin Go to High School” (2012) and “Furious 7” (2015).
