Today may not be a government-mandated holiday, but for those who advocate a green lifestyle, it's just as important as any other statutory holiday. Rap music has a special niche for all the weed smokers out there, however it's really transcended that niche genre and has become pretty common-place. Every other song has a reference (or three) about lighting up/rolling up/smoking up. It's safe to say we don't need a reason to smoke, but hey, we'll take one.
We reached out to several of our weed-smoking rapper-friends, and found out what they're smoking on these days, how they're smoking it (welcome to the 21st century, the options are endless), and what they'll be doing today. Click through to hear from Wiz Khalifa, The Game, Ty Dolla $ign, Action Bronson, Waka Flocka, Fetty Wap Pro Era, and more, accompanied by photos of each respective artist getting high. Because.
Feel free to tell us what your strain of choice is in the comments. Happy 4/20!
