Rapper Lil Twist sat down for a recent interview where he made a shocking claim — that he once took a weed charge for pop singer Justin Bieber earlier on in his career.
Speaking to radio personality Mina SayWhat, Twist said: “If they would have put weed charges on Justin in his early career, it would have been bad on him. So I got a call one day saying, ‘Twist, do you really love this kid?’ I said, ‘Yes.’ They said, ‘Cool, if you love him then you can take the heat for him because you can come off a little weed charge. You’re associated with Lil Wayne. You’re a rapper.'”
The incident began a downward spiral of legal woes for the young rapper — many of the incidents he wasn’t even present for.
“Then it got to a point where I didn’t even have to be there at times and they were putting it ‘Twist did it, Twist did it, Twist did it.’ It became overwhelming,” he adds.
