Afroman
The Good Times
Universal Records
Afroman’s Universal debut.
The Good Times answers the
question, “Is it possible to get
high after listening to a CD?”
with a deep “Yep” and a long
exhale of putrid marijuana
smoke.
While his music has been
downloaded off the Internet by
fellow rappers and po the ads since
January, Aug. 28 marked the
release of The Good Times.
The first single, “Because 1
Got High” is also featured on the
Jay and Silent Boh Strike Back
Soundtrack and is the #1 most
requested song at top radio sta
tions in New York. Los Angeles.
Denver and Norfolk.
The album was created in
three weeks, with Afroman. aka
Joseph Foreman, singing, playing
and co-producing with Tim
Ramenofsky.
This Mississippi native began
rapping at eight and sold his tapes
among his friends in school. He
eventually was kicked out of jun
ior high after selling a rap song Ik*
wrote about one of his teachers
and her small breasts.
Afroman’s raps can be consid
ered more upbeat than thuggish
and are accompanied by music
that sounds like beats taken

Jay and Silent Bob
Original Motion
Picture Soundtrack
Universal Records
The soundtrack to
one of the silliest
movies of the summer
proves to be just as fun.
The Jay and Silent Boh
Strike Back Soundtrack is
an enhanced CD that
includes trailers of all
director Kevin Smith's
funniest films, such as
Clerks, Mallrats and
Chasing Amy, as well as
clips from his current
film. The CD contains 27
tracks, 13 of which are
short clips of Jay and
Silent Bob’s funniest
moments.
The first song on the
soundtrack. Stroke 9\s
“Kick Some Ass,” has
the same drive as their
first hit, “Little Black
Backpack.”
Dave Pirner follows
with “Tube of Wonderf ul."
which gives listeners an
image of Jay and Silent
Bob sitting cross-legged
meditating or taking hits
off a bong.
Newcomer Mini bar
provides a coffeehouse
rock-like track to the
soundtrack with smooth
vocals in “Choked Up."
Adding a song that
has been a classic since
1968 is never a bad idea,
especially if it is
Steppenwolf's "Magic
Carpet Ride."
Bon Jovi’s “Bad
Medicine” from 1988
sounds identical to the
band’s 1980s rock
anthems.
"This is Love” from
PJ Harvey’s latest album
Stories from the City.
Stories from the Sea has
questionable lyrics like
“I can’t believe life’s so
complex, when I just
want to sit here and
watch you undress."
However, PJ Harvey can
get away with it.
