American rapper, Wiz Khalifa has revealed that his father, Laurence W. Thomaz, has died.
The rapper announced the news on X in a short but emotional post.
“Today my father decided not to wake up,” he wrote. “I will always love him, miss him and be [grateful] for the things he taught me. He went out like a true yogi, at peace and on his own time. I love you forever Laurence W. Thomaz.”
Wiz had a close relationship with his father, who previously spoke about how fatherhood changed the rapper for the better.
“[His son] Sebastian’s matured him, but it’s made him more serious and understand: ‘I have to be here; I can’t do the dangerous, reckless things I was doing before: I have this little guy to look out for,’” Thomaz said in a 2019 documentary.
