a six-album deal, and Universal released The Good Times in 2001. The Good Times was a compilation of Afroman's first two albums and some new tracks. Afroman started releasing his music independently and mostly through the Internet in 2004, and that year, he recorded Jobe Bells, which satirized traditional Christmas songs. Afroman was part of the 2010 Gathering of the Juggalos lineup. In October 2014, Afroman released a remix of his hit song "Because I Got High" in order to highlight the usefulness of cannabis as part of the effort to legalize its sale across the United States. Personal life Religion In 2003, Afroman declared himself a Christian. Assault case On February 17, 2015, Afroman was midway through his performance at a live music venue in Biloxi, Mississippi, when a woman walked on stage. She approached Foreman from behind, drink in hand, while dancing. When she touched Foreman he spun around and punched her off the stage. He was subsequently escorted offstage by security and was arrested and taken into custody, and charged with assault. He was released on bond shortly thereafter. There were reportedly 12 to 15 security guards on duty to manage a crowd in excess of 500 people. When interviewed, Foreman's representative claimed that the act was an involuntary reflex caused by the woman invading his space. He also stated that he mistook the woman for another audience member who had been consistently heckling him. He publicly apologized and sought assistance with anger management. Raid on Ohio home On August 23, 2022, TMZ reported that Afroman had taken to social media and posted images and videos of his home in Adams County, Ohio being raided by the sheriff's department. He reportedly asked for attorney Ben Crump. Local news media reached out to law enforcement who declined to give any information about the warrant and search. He also posted about a previous burglary on his home where he was threatened with arrest by the sheriff's department if he kept checking about the progress of the case and was told they didn't have time. He recorded a song criticizing the raid, titled "Will You Help Me Repair My Door", and released a music video of the song, composed entirely of security camera recordings of the raid, to his YouTube account on December 29, 2022. Presidential candidacy On December 20, 2022, Afroman announced his candidacy in the 2024 presidential election.
