AFROMAN In two minutes, eleven seconds, I had written a hit, but before that it had taken me nearly seven months to recognize I had a marijuana problem, says the now-reformed rapper. It was only then that I realized everyone talks about smoking weed, but no one ever really talks about the effects of marijuana. We know about the effects of drinking beer, we know about the effects of looking at a naked lady, but nobody knew about the effects of smoking weed. Actually, the problem was more that the people who did know weren’t songwriters; they were just dudes walking down the beach or whatever. So I decided to write that song. Now, Afroman is following up the worldwide success of that recording with the aptly titled AFROHOLIC … THE EVEN BETTER TIMES, a comprehensive, two-disc collection — released on his home-grown Hungry Hustler Records label — showcasing forthright lyrics, skilled guitar work and infectious hooks. Whether raising the roof with Let’s Get High Tonight, reliving painful Ghetto Memories or simply Hittin’ Switches, every hip-hop-infused cut is hard-rocking and undeniably heartfelt.
