CAMP SHWA
Animal Face
Camp is showing up like a champ these days. Rising in the ranks of potency and coming in strong with their Animal Face flower. 26% THC will have you making monkey faces and babbling like a baboon. These tight nugs are a good indication that the growers raising these ladies know what they’re doing. You’re going to have to dig deep into these frosted glowing buds to even find a stem. Kudos to the grow team! If you see me out and about, be sure and say hi- I want to shake your hands.

CAMP Connor's Comfort Rosin Cartridge
What a perfectly evolved emulsification. Made without the use of artificial solvents, and customtailored to be enjoyed by anyone. You're gonna love the way you look, and feel. Sink into the driver’s seat comfortably and be sure to buckle down with this capable cartridge of nothing but what your lungs desire... rosin and perspired cannabis-derived terpenes. This isn't hot dog water. Forget what you once thought of disposable cartridges, and get your fingertips and lips on this portable medicine. I personally guarantee you're gonna love it. If you don't, well then you shouldn't read anything I ever write again. I put my words on it. The best cartridge I've ever laid lungs on. It's like Goldilocks with dreadlocks and 5/10 threads.

FLEUR Grape Monster
This funky, Grape Monster tickles my fancy. I sure love a good, energetic sativa flower. And this pride of Fleur is exactly what I want when I'm ready to take off. The look of this remarkable flower is as impressive as the way it makes me feel. So open and free, Grape Monster, take me away. Are we in a Calgon commercial from the 90’s? There's hardly any myrcene in this animal, so you'll have to pull your own brakes. Sativas aren't for everyone, it might give you the shakes. But for me, it makes me happy with no aches whatsoever, and makes me feel oh so clever.

CITY BILL
TREES Apples & Bananas Batter
There once was an old man named Bill who lived in the Oasis of Cannabis and he loved taking dabs. His whole life, Bill stressed on not having enough quality concentrates so he would spend countless hours collecting concentrates, or terps as he liked to call them. Old Man Bill would always deplete his supply using a creme brûlée torch until they became hot enough to transform into thick white vapor clouds. One afternoon, while Bill was frolicking about, he discovered Apples and Bananas up on the top shelf of the highest City Trees. Bill quickly pumped his brakes and ceased his search for terps - there were enough Apples and Bananas here to last a lifetime. As he settled in, and made his home inside the City Trees, he lived happily ever after.

FLEUR ZEST
There's something about Fleur flower that makes me want to twist up a stout jay and kick back on the porch with a lemonade and my thoughts. So that’s just what I did with these Fleur Zest buds. Citrus terpenes fill my head and the air as I calmly forget everything around me and focus all my attention to my slow burning jay and the translucent clouds, like ghosts, float around me and disappear into nothingness. Everything is better after a zesty jay from Fleur. At least on my porch. Maybe yours too.

LA Confidential
Anxiety, stress, pain, sleep issues? Don’t keep this strain a secret- LA Confidential is the perfect accompaniment to ease your mind and spirit. This strain is a bit like dreaming while still awake. A mildly psychedelic creative lift allows you to listen to music, watch a movie or indulge in nature without any anxious feelings and without sending you immediately to your pillow. Indulge in the hefty limonene effects as your worries drift away…”California dreamin’, on such a winter’s day!...”

Dosi Fire flower by Harvest Foundation is the type of flower you want to spark up and pass around. The flower is aromatic and punchy, filled with a full body flavor that will have everyone SHWA taking a double-take and pointing out what you already know- That’s Good! The high is social and attentive, so if you find yourself smoking alone, call up an old friend. The next hour of your life will brim with blissful connectivity. I have a feeling that the growers at Harvest Foundation are able to put something special in their flower- Love.

Gummies
Now, as many of you know, I talk smack when it comes to most things gummy. For me, gummies symbolize many things wrong with the cannabis industry. Plus, most of them just plain suck. But much like hedge fund-run corporate cannabis companies, they aren’t going anywhere. So when a gummy comes my way, that tastes just as good as its texture, I have to point it out, and give a shout-out. Shout-out to Chef Amy at Desert Bloom for creating these Key Lime Gummies. A truly classic gummy that is worth its weight in weed. The sweet and tart key lime flavor lingered and brightened up my mouth. Thanks Chef Amy, Desert Bloom is lucky to have you- I look forward to trying another flavor soon!

KABUNKY OG Kush Krumble SHWA Kabunky OG Kush Krumble had me thinking Wild Bill slipped me a pack of sugar in the raw as a joke. This crumble has the look and feel of solid, raw sugar crystals. A golden caramel color, this OG Kush Krumble is straight-up stoney. Instead of dabbing it, I sprinkle a little of this magic on a bowl of Kabunky flower and slowly sizzle each corner before turning the dusted flower to ash. If Wild Bill did try and punk me with a pack of sugar in the raw, jokes on him- that pack got me straight-up stoned!
DESERT BLOOM JENN
Cotton Candy Hybrid Enhanced Gummies
Enjoy this infused gummy experience enhanced by a whimsically sweet flavor. Low (to no) cannabis aroma makes for discreet edible enjoyment with a healthy THC kick. Bisabolol heals with antiinflammatory properties and nerolidol eases your stress and calms your mind. Like a day at the park eating swirled pink clouds of cotton candy!

KABUNKY Sugar Cookie JENN A beautifully balanced hybrid, this strain has a surprise flavor profile that starts off fruity and burns to a creamy vanilla. Excellent for treating insomnia and promoting relaxation, humulene aids as a potent pain reliever as limonene lifts your mood. A great way to end the day or ease into a relaxed activity.

SIP ELIXIRS Hurricane Party
There are two things I think about when purchasing cannabis products: One is potency, and the second is a quote by Tommy Chong- All marijuana is medical. So my first thought when I spotted Sip Elixirs Hurricane Party 4ML shot with 100mg THC is that someone made a product I can sit back and enjoy for a few hours without having to re-up my high. Every hardcore cannabis enthusiast visiting Sin City should have Las Vegas Wellness & Compassion Co’s Sip Elixirs on their party-favor list. Just pour the 4ML shot into your walking-around-beverage and lean into exploring all that Las Vegas has to offer. With that said, if you have an allergy to Red 40, you may want to avoid heavy use. Sip Elixirs has the potential to be the perfect product. If the ingredients could be a little more... focused on wellness and compassion, Sip Elixirs could change the game. Nonetheless, if you’re just looking to party, I highly recommend Sip’s Hurricane Party to everyone.

Sugar Cookie Terp Sauce BILL What a beautiful entourage of terpenes this is for me. These saucy dabs are giving me energy and controlling my anxiety. I usually tell indica lovers to take precaution with such a heavy dose of limonene, but I would actually recommend this to any fellow dab-taker because of its abundance of anti-anxiolytic caryophyllene. I feel energetic and vocal with little or no regard to self-censorship. Gaseous bravery at its finest. I better go do something productive with this sassy tool before I say or do something destructive like a fool. This is like truth serum.

KABUNKY Wedding Cake Tiny Tin Prerolls
These little tin boxes that hold five, halfgram prerolls (designed for single use) made the perfect holiday gifts this year. When gifted to my good friend Keith Robert, a cannabis connoisseur, he tried one and remarked, “I feel like I just ate Space Cakes...I’m light in the legs and floating on air! I feel like I am ready to take on the world right now or build a house...these prerolls are gonna do wonders for the Nevada housing market!” I hear ya, Keith. Whether ready to tackle a home project or get creative with friends, Wedding Cake starts off energetic and euphoric and settles into a warm, comforting indica haze. There’s no mistaking the creamy, unique flavor profile of this strain and the hefty THC and caryophyllene cannabinoid content make for a special experience, sure to chase your depression and anxiety away.

REMEDY God’s Gift Sky Resin Cartridge
Can this seductive, resinous sediment from the sky actually be a deity from God? Or is this pure cockiness at its finest, flaunting its swagger in the face of Karma? I've spent enough quiet time in isolation with this 2 headed monster to realize it may have originally begun its ministry as one humble breath, it soon evolved into a fire-breathing beast within my temple. I worship God’s Gift. Remedy is my religion.

REMEDY DEADHEAD OG
Start your 2021 right and purchase as much Remedy Deadhead OG as you can afford. Deadhead OG gets my nug award for potency coming in with a 31.42% THC and looking like a class act doing it. With a smooth balance of myrcene, limonene and caryophyllene, Deadhead OG will have you ready to roll out. Or in. Or up. Nonetheless, your ass will be rolling! So buckle up, check all your mirrors and hit play.

REMEDY Candy Cake
Sky Resin Cartridge SHWA With just a couple puffs of Remedy’s Candy Cake Sky Resin, the transformation begins. Like walking through a wall of water, you come out the other side with glossy eyes and your equilibrium slightly dripping. This stunningly clear sky resin is 91% THC, so these cartridges are for the cannabis connoisseur who likes to get soaked in silliness. The terpenes are also off the charts, but I’m happy to report not so much so that your nose tickles and your throat burns. And not so much so that you’re left with a plastic aftertaste. Thank you, Remedy. Now- can we get it to 93% THC? Asking for a friend.

Bio-Jesus
This herb is bionic like the Million Dollar Man. A 32.93% THC anomaly could only be the brain-child clone of one man who lives deep in the Sky Forest at Remedy Island, Dr. Braly Moreau. Bio-Jesus is with me now. It took shelter in my workplace and it's all I seem to ever smoke now. It's controlling my every thought and forcing my eyes shut as I type my report. I can no longer see anything except a giant green fog. Wait! It's you Bio-Jesus! What kind of beautiful monster are you? Pain gone. How am I still typing? Get out of my head!

Lemon Punch Sky Resin Sugar
Remedy has put together five of my favorite words: Lemon Punch Sky Resin and Sugar. By the looks of things, I’m going to like what they stand for too! This sky resin sugar is light in color and texture and tastes like fresh fruit on the exhale. Lemon Punch Sky Resin Sugar isn’t overwhelming, so you can snap a dab and get back to whatever you’re doing. A sweet treat to break up the monotony of life as we know. With this Remedy resin, you also get a little CBD with your THC to help you stay a little more pain free.

>>> BY JENNIFER WALKERMUSIC SPOTLIGHT:Young Keefa
JENNIFER WALKER: Thank you for talking with us! Please introduce yourself to our readers…
YOUNG KEEFA: Young Keefa, I’m 25 and my birthday is on January 13th so, almost 26. I thank you for doing this during my birthday month! I just started my own record label as well - CEO of Potency Music Entertainment, LLC.
JW: When did you begin your music career?
YK: I started taking my music seriously at the age of 19. A friend and I used to make music at a home studio, but we didn’t have the quality we wanted so we invested our money in going to a real recording studio. I started making music in Atlanta, GA.
JW: How did you come up with the name Young Keefa?
YK: My first name is Keith. One of the most potent parts of cannabis is the kief. I mixed them together. The Young part comes from my babyface. I have always been mistaken for being younger then what I really am.
JW: Are you from Nevada? If not, where are you from and what brought you here?
ended up here. Vegas is a mixed cultural place and has a lot of different things to do on top of being a legal cannabis state. It was a perfect transition for me, especially since I was already in the music industry. Moving around when I was younger really helped me at being able to adapt to pretty much any setting.
JW: What type of musician are you?
YK: I am a Rap/ Hip-Hop artist.
JW: What are your favorite cannabis strains?
YK: Bond Road Kush, Gary Payton, and Kush Mountains.
JW: Any favorite cannabis products?
YK: Mostly flower and anybody that knows me, knows it’s always in a big Backwoods. And, wax from time to time.
JW: Does cannabis help you creatively?
YK: Yes, it helps calm me down from overthinking. When making a song, I have so many words and ways I want to say them but when I write and smoke I definitely bring them together to make a record. When recording the song, you want to match that same head space and feeling you had when writing the song, so I smoke when I record as well.
JW: Do you support full cannabis legalization?
YK: Yes, cannabis is going to stop the opioid crisis. Cannabis is also going to help with debt as well because everyone smokes. Stabilization of jobs and cannabis helps medically. 1/1/21 will be 5 years no pills or lean for me, something that I’m promoting in my music as well. Kids and young adults listen to our music and want to be just like us. We have to try to set an example.
JW: Favorite place to shop for cannabis?
YK: Essence, The Source, or Cultivate.
JW: Of the songs you have written/played, what has been your favorite? Why?
YK: "Make It" was definitely one of my more difficult songs. It was written from my life experiences which is how I write most of my music. During Covid, we couldn’t do anything so I had to change it up. Getting closer with my family and friends and just talking more really helped out as well.
JW: Where do you find inspiration for music?
YK: Living life is the best way to find inspiration.
JW: Favorite things to do in Vegas...
YK: Spending time with my girlfriend and family. Also, I like to hit Davidoff of Geneva Cigar Bar on The Strip and chill and write sometimes too.
JW: Anything you dislike about our state?
YK: We don’t have a cannabis hotel.
JW: How can readers listen to your music?
YK: Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, YouTube, etc. Just type in “Young Keefa”
JW: How can readers follow you on the internet/social media?
YK: I am on Instagram @YoungKeefa
JW: Famous last words?
YK: “Big Keefa”
