Afroman, a popular rapper from the early 2000s, has his sights set on becoming the President of the United States. While the media is currently focused on Kamala Harris and her summer antics, Afroman has been quietly making moves towards his presidential bid.
It's been over two decades since Afroman's hit single "Because I Got High" took the world by storm, and he's still as passionate as ever about his advocacy for marijuana. In fact, his campaign slogan is "Weed shall overcome", and he's determined to make it all the way to the White House at the age of 50.
For those who may not remember, Afroman, whose real name is Joseph Edgar Foreman, reached number one on the UK charts in 2001 with "Because I Got High". The song was even nominated for a Grammy Award in 2002, but ultimately lost to Missy Elliot's "Get Your Freak On". A year later, he released "Crazy Rap", also known as "Colt 45", which also gained success on the charts.
Despite being a one-hit wonder, Afroman is still making waves in the music industry and is known for his strong stance on legalizing marijuana. He may not be as mainstream as he was in the 2000s, but he continues to release music and has a loyal following. However, these days, his Instagram is filled with posts about his presidential campaign and photos of him with female fans, who often get various parts of their bodies signed by the rapper.
In one post, Afroman shares his thoughts on Joe Biden's withdrawal from the race, expressing his disappointment in how strangers and "busters" have influenced him to drop out. He also shares that it costs $15 million to be on every ballot in every state, but encourages people to write in his name and join him in his pursuit of becoming the next US President.
Afroman's official website lays out his platform, which includes legalizing marijuana nationwide, pushing for federal marijuana banking legislation, and ensuring that federal employees with medical licenses can access treatment without fear of repercussions. His campaign slogan is "Reflect on this: Are you in a better place today than you were four years ago?" and he promises to drive real change if elected.
Despite the lyrics of "Because I Got High" detailing the negative effects of smoking too much weed, Afroman is a strong advocate for legalizing marijuana across the entire US. He even signed a six-album record deal with Universal Records after his initial success at the young age of 26, but it was later terminated due to the label rejecting his tracks.
In 2023, Afroman's home was raided by police over allegations of drug trafficking, but nothing was found. He continues to make music and tour, but has mostly stayed out of the spotlight except for one incident in 2015. During a performance in Mississippi, he accidentally punched a woman who had approached him from behind, mistaking her for another audience member causing trouble. He later apologized and took anger management courses.
Most recently, Afroman made headlines when his house in Ohio was raided in 2022 over accusations of kidnapping and drug trafficking. However, the police did not find any evidence and the case was dismissed. Afroman then filed a counterclaim against the officers, who had sued him for defamation over a music video, claiming he had used their likeness for commercial purposes. The case is set to go to trial.
Despite the ups and downs, Afroman remains determined to become the US President and is hoping to get a write-in vote from the American people. His passion for legalizing marijuana and driving real change in the country has been a constant driving force throughout his career, and he shows no signs of slowing down.
