Afroman's latest parody track, 'Hunter Got High,' has topped several of iTunes' charts since its Friday debut.
The track, produced by Nashville-based Baste Records and co-written by acclaimed songwriter Chris Wallin, is a reprisal of Afroman's 2000 classic "Because I Got High," which humorously describes a chronic cannabis smoker's inability to carry out mundane tasks because he's constantly high on his drug of choice. Similar to the vein of Afroman's original track, "Hunter Got High" mocks President Joe Biden's son's controversial escapades, including the infamous "laptop from hell" and mysterious cocaine found at the White House last summer.
Since its Friday release, "Hunter Got High" reached #3 on iTunes' top music video chart spanning all genres.
Afroman's latest track also reached the #5 spot on iTune's Hip-Hop chart.
The track opens with Afroman, born Joseph Edgar Foreman, asking Hunter to "roll up one of those congressional blunts" before delving into the president's son's exploits.
"He was gonna get his laptop fixed, but Hunter got high," Afroman says in the music video while riding in an Escalade with Hunter and Secret Service. "He wasn't gonna show all them d--- pics, but Hunter got high."

The rapper then takes aim at former 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton saying Hunter should have asked Clinton to bleach his hard drive, in reference to her email scandal.
Afroman also tees off on President Biden's alleged business dealings with Hunter: "Biden never used to start with 'BUY,' til Hunter got high." The rapper also calls President Biden "the big guy," in reference to former Biden associate Tony Bobulinski's February testimony to the House Oversight Committee, saying "Ukraine wasn't part of the plan till Hunter got high."
The track ends with Afroman saying, "Imagine if he wasn't rich or so damn white."
"The cops would raid his house, eat his lemon pound cake, disconnect his cameras and steal his money," Afroman says of Hunter — a reference to several of the rapper's own run-ins with authorities.
Baste Records describes themselves as a “platform for conservative musicians and artists to reach a wider audience and share their beliefs and values through their music." The record company further describes itself as an alternative to the “mainstream music industry [which] is often dominated by liberal or progressive values.”
"Musical culture is a powerful way to reach new voters and this song lets everyone know that even Afroman is fed up with the way the Democrats are running the country," Baste Records said of the new track in a press release.
Afroman's partnership with Baste Records marks the record label's second outing with a hip-hop artist, following their November partnership with Hi-Rez the Rapper.
