Young Grey

In this latest installment of the Nashtyville Podcast, host Young Grey sits down with the legendary Afroman, a pivotal figure in early 2000s hip-hop, known for his laid-back style and hits like 'Because I Got High' and 'Crazy Rap'. This episode promises an unfiltered journey through Afroman's career, unpacking the stories and inspirations behind his most iconic tracks.

Listeners will be treated to a deep dive into the making of his album 'The Good Times', exploring how Afroman's unique blend of humor and rhythm catapulted him to fame. The conversation will also shed light on the less-discussed aspects of his music, revealing the depth and artistry that often goes unrecognized in mainstream narratives.

While the focus remains firmly on the music, Young Grey and Afroman will also venture into a candid discussion on the artist's peripheral views on social issues. This isn't your typical celebrity interview; expect raw stories, industry insights, and a touch of the socio-political landscape as seen through Afroman's eyes.

Tailored for the cool kids of all ages, from the nostalgic twenty-somethings to the seasoned hip-hop aficionados in their fifties, this episode is a blend of nostalgia, contemporary relevance, and everything in between. Tune in for an episode that's as much about reliving the classics as it is about understanding the enduring influence of Afroman's music in today's cultural landscape.
