Marijuana is becoming increasingly prolific in not just the country of America, but the world. It shouldn’t be deemed shocking considering millions of people rely on the lush green product to get through their day. Notable rappers like Curren$y, Snoop Dogg, Rick Ross, and of course, Wiz Khalifa are notorious for rolling around with a pack of good Kush.

“I’m really excited to finally share them with the public and to work with RiverRock to raise awareness and end cannabis prohibition nationwide,” said Wiz to PEOPLE earlier this week.

If you recall, Ghostface Killah just released his own product called Wu-Goo, and he’s doing pretty well in the weed business.
