Afroman has released a parody track about Hunter Biden and his alleged scandals with his father President Joe Biden.
"Hunter Got High," the latest track by Afroman, born Joseph Edgar Foreman, is a parody of the rapper's 2000 classic "Because I Got High." The original track humorously describes a chronic cannabis smoker's inability to carry out mundane tasks because he's constantly high on his drug of choice.
Afroman's new track, produced by Nashville-based Baste Records and co-written by acclaimed songwriter Chris Wallin, references the younger Biden's controversial escapades, including the infamous "laptop from hell" and mysterious cocaine found at the White House last summer.
The track opens with Afroman 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."
Afroman takes aim at other Democratic figures including former 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The rapper references her email scandal, saying Hunter should have had asked Clinton to bleach his hard drive.

Hunter Biden's artwork is also panned in the song as Afroman says "he never could paint worth a f---," though notes the president's son has sold over $1.5 million worth of paintings.
Afroman then comments on President Biden's alleged business dealings with Hunter saying, "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.
