Both Lil Za and [a1502172] were known friends of [a1602787]. Za, Twist and 6 others were living in Bieber’s home but were kicked out by his former girlfriend Selena Gomez due to their bad influence. It was believed the brothers introduced Bieber to marijuana and cocaine, and lead him to cheat on his then girlfriend. Za and Twist had also been seen driving Bieber’s exotic $100,000 plus cars through his neighborhood of Calabasas causing his high class neighbors to protest against him living there. In 2014 police raided Justin Bieber's home and Lil' Za was arrested for possession of cocaine.
