Afroman – Becauze I Got High (CDS) (2001) (FLAC + 320 kbps)

“Because I Got High” is a Grammy nominated song by Afroman, from his album of the same name, about how cannabis use is degrading his quality of life. The song rose from obscurity to popularity after it was circulated around the Internet and was featured on a radio show.
The song explains how the author has failed his college class, missed court dates, had his paycheck garnished due to missed child support payments, gambled away his car payment, is left masturbating after not having sex with his girlfriend, is paraplegic as the result of a police chase and is now homeless “because he got high”. The music video for it was directed by Kevin Smith and featured Jay and Silent Bob smoking with Afroman, as well as a glimpse of the Quick Stop where Clerks was filmed.
Afroman released his album Because I Got High in 2000; he distributed it mainly through concerts. The title track was soon posted on file-sharing service Napster and made it to The Howard Stern Show. This song was the theme song of the film Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and was later featured in the films Disturbia and The Perfect Score.
In December 2001, a Connecticut teenager Matthew Fournier was ordered to listen to the song and write a report about it as punishment for possession of marijuana. After the success of this single, Afroman was signed to Universal Records.
On the album Mobilize by punk band Anti-Flag, after several minutes of silence on the album’s end track, a friend of the band called Spaz can be heard singing parts of the song with Anti-Flag.
