A Romanian appeals court has sentenced American rapper Wiz Khalifa to nine months in prison for drug possession, issuing the final ruling more than a year after the incident that led to the charges.
The Constanta Court of Appeal issued the decision Thursday, convicting Khalifa, whose legal name is Cameron Jibril Thomaz, of possession of illegal drugs for personal use, according to Romania’s national news agency, Agerpres. The sentence stems from a July 2024 incident at the Beach, Please! music festival in Costinesti, a resort town along Romania’s Black Sea coast.
