Lil Twist: “I Took The Weed Charges For Bieber”

In an unfortunate twist of events, Lil Twist whose real name is Christopher Lynn Moore, and is associated with Lil Wayne and his posse, recently made a revealing statement in a podcast with a radio personality, Mina. He has claimed that in early 2010s he was made a scapegoat for police charges against Justin Bieber in a weed related incident.

Considering Justin Bieber just put out a bold statement claiming that he has been party to benefiting from Black Culture, this doesn’t even seem very far off.

Lil Twist claimed, “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.’”

The story goes on as someone asks Lil Twist to put his neck on the line for Bieber, “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. 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,’” Twist added. “It became overwhelming.”

However, sources close to Justin Bieber have rebutted and said quite plainly, “Justin and Twist don’t have a relationship anymore, Justin wishes Twist well and finds these comments unfortunate and completely untrue.”

Lil Twist went on to comment against it and bring Bieber’s alleged solidarity into question, “While promoting my TV show, the subject of certain events with Bieber were brought up, and in the spirit of being authentic, I felt it a disservice to my fans and the general public to not be completely transparent about my experience. I believe that if you truly support the Black Lives Matter movement, Black people, and Black culture, your actions have to reflect that.”
