Wiz KhalifaPhoto by Joyce Charat[PRESS RELEASE] – NEW YORK, Oct. 14, 2026 – Khalifa Kush, the premium cannabis, accessories and apparel brand founded by multi-platinum-selling, GRAMMY and Golden Globe-nominated recording artist Wiz Khalifa, announced its expansion into New York, marking one of the brand's most anticipated U.S. market launches to date. After years of building toward entry into the state, Khalifa Kush will bring its signature genetics to consumers beginning Oct. 31 through a partnership with New York-based cultivator and distributor Skyworld Cannabis.

Currently available in 13 markets in the U.S., Khalifa Kush is set to enter New York, where demand from the brand's fans has remained strong. The launch will feature two Khalifa Kush strains, KK and Violet Sky, available in flower and pre-roll formats, with additional strains and formats planned to follow.

"New York has been asking for Khalifa Kush for a long time, so it means a lot to finally bring our signature strain, among others, to one of the cities I've spent so much time in," said Wiz Khalifa, founder of Khalifa Kush. "I can't wait for my fans across the state to finally be able to walk into a dispensary and experience the real Khalifa Kush for themselves."

The New York cannabis market is evolving quickly, with a flower-forward and savvy consumer base. Backed by an established reputation built around consistency and cultivation expertise, Khalifa Kush is well positioned to enter one of the fastest-growing markets in the country.

"In music, sports and business, timing is everything. We couldn't have scripted this story better if we tried," Skyworld Cannabis CEO Alex Anderson said. "New York is primed for this exceptional brand, and Halloween is about to turn Black and Yellow, thanks to the incredible team at Khalifa Kush. It is a true blessing to be a small part of it."

Through the partnership, Skyworld Cannabis will serve as Khalifa Kush's New York cultivation and distribution partner, supplying the brand's products to licensed dispensary partners across the state. Khalifa Kush will initially be available at seven locations across New York City and an additional 29 dispensaries throughout Upstate New York and Long Island, with further distribution to follow.
