LAS VEGAS , April 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Planet 13 Holdings Inc. (CSE: PLTH) (OTCQX: PLNH) (" Planet 13 " or the " Company "), a leading vertically integrated multi-state cannabis company, today announced that Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, George Clinton will be at Planet 13 for a meet and greet with fans to launch "The FUNK" by Khalifa Kush. Exclusive to Planet 13 stores, this product is a collaboration with long-time friend and multi-platinum-selling, GRAMMY^® and Golden Globe^® Award-nominated recording artist Wiz Khalifa, who opened his first store-in-store at Planet 13 last Summer.

"Khalifa Kush is wildly popular at Planet 13 so we're confident The FUNK will be a hit," said Larry Scheffler, Co-CEO of Planet 13. "Having the legendary George Clinton—one of the true pioneers of funk music—join us to celebrate this launch makes the experience even more exciting for our customers. Planet 13'sSuperStore and Entertainment Complex has become the go-to destination for exclusive celebrity product drops and brand showcases, offering fans a one-of-a-kind opportunity to connect directly with the artists behind the products."

"I'm beyond stoked to be joining forces with my man Wiz Khalifa on this project. When Wiz first brought up this collab, I instantly knew something cosmic was about to happen. This right here is the pure essence of what we've been laying down since the early P-Funk days. Just like the music lifts your spirit, THE FUNK elevates your consciousness to a whole new dimension. THE FUNK carries the same cosmic energy that's been powering our music since we first told everybody to "Free your mind …"  Now you can feel THE FUNK -- whether you're spinning our vinyl, or sparking something up. It's all the same journey, ya dig?" said George Clinton.

"I love George Clinton, when he said he was down to work on a weed project I knew we were going to make it extra dope. The Funk is awesome and will get you high as can be. You need the Funk." said Wiz Khalifa.

The FUNK is a bold, flavorful fusion of Motorbreath flower and Daily Grape live resin, combining the heavy gas and diesel notes of Motorbreath with the sweet, fruity funk of Daily Grape. The result is a rich, layered smoke with earthy skunk, sour grape, and creamy sweetness. Expect a fast-hitting euphoric high that melts into full-body relaxation, perfect for seasoned smokers chasing flavor, potency, and that signature funk.
