is it true that he's a black Trumper? B/c he seems to be able to use his brain in a very convincing manner. Or is that a rumor put out to defame him?

Thanks for all the comments and favs nevertheless :D

I'm old people, but never liked Howard Stern or had Napster, so "Because I Got High" is only vaguely familiar to me. I guess you do miss a lot not listening to top 40.

In reply to Rachel Rawlings.

that’s wild, Afroman was famous before social media was really a thing, before Facebook even existed, let alone really got going. So I guess he’s old people famous.

this is the uniform of a real hero. Red white *and* blue lives matter, bitches!

In reply to josh g..

it’s a tactic to get him to admit he is doing something to harm the deputies. Notice how he doesn’t take the bait.

In reply to Robert Dresden.

"what you're doing to these deputies" dear gods what the fuck. that lawyer found a way to get high on bootlicking

In reply to Robert Dresden.

it's all fuck around until it's time to find out, isn't it? Good for him. And screw those cops and their sob stories. Go do the overnight shift stocking shelves at a supermarket if you're afraid of interacting with the public. Cowards who whine like that had no business being armed in the first place.

In reply to Robert Dresden.

Daaaayum.

That is a man that is not to be trifled with. I suppose this is one of those times when you don't want to have a battle of wits with a well armed opponent :-)

I hope he wins this - the balls on these cops ... I can't even.

In reply to Robert Dresden.

This is one of the rare cases in which some one I never heard of before they got social-media famous is someone who I absolutely am glad to know about.

In reply to Robert Dresden.

they picked the wrong mark, it's like trying to heckle a seasoned comedian. Afroman knows his rights and knows exactly how to express them.

In reply to Robert Dresden.

Lol. Good for him. Saying something that makes a cop upset is not illegal.

I saw this post on social media:

Longtime trial attorney here. Afroman might be the best witness I’ve ever seen on a stand.

On cross-exam, the lawyer’s job is to control the witness, to force "Yes" or "No" answers that verify the lawyer’s version of events. Afroman made that impossible.

Every single answer tied back to the theory and theme of his case. It was a masterclass in narrative dominance.

PSA: Don’t try this at home. This was an Olympian performance with an egregious set of facts. Afroman is Afroman. You are you.

In reply to Robert Dresden.

Not all heroes wear capes. Some of them wear American flag suits.

"fruitlessly" I see what they did there.

In reply to Robert Dresden.

Jeepers! This man is a legend. "Sorry for being a victim, now let's talk about the predators" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

In reply to Robert Dresden.

Hero. Hero against the advice of council.

I was so hoping for the cop to actually take a slice of the cake. :-D

Love how he stood his ground in front of court.

In reply to cakepop demon hunter.

He's been a legend for some time. Dude was distributing his music on Napster in 2000.

In reply to washington irving.

Beautiful:

These are public servants who conducted a search of a private citizen’s home under a warrant, found essentially nothing, broke his property, possibly took his money, tried to disable his cameras, and then — when he had the audacity to use his own security footage to make fun of them — decided to use the legal system to try to shut him up and get paid for their hurt feelings.

The message they were trying to send is the same one law enforcement sends in so many of these cases: we can do whatever we want to you, and if you embarrass us for it, we’ll make your life even harder. It’s the same impulse that leads cops to arrest people for filming them, or to seize phones during protests, or to charge people with “resisting arrest” when there’s no underlying crime. The whole point is to make the cost of accountability so high that people stop trying.

But Afroman showed up in an American flag suit and explained, calmly and clearly, that he makes funny songs, that these officers raided his house for no good reason, that they broke his stuff, and that he has every right to talk about it. And the deputies’ own testimony is undermining their case in real time.

Defector and Techdirt got you covered:

https://www.techdirt.com/2026/03/18/afromans-defamation-trial-is-going-about-as-well-for-the-deputies-as-their-original-raid-did/

His testimony is amazing. I won't link to bluesky but try and search for it. it's worth listening to him taking the plaintiff attorney apart and obliterating the standard attorney advice of "don't volunteer anything. Give the least information possible".

Taxpayers paid lawyers for these thug cops to pursue this frivolous lawsuit for years. Are the people of Adams County, Ohio aware that this is how their hard earned money is being spent?

Plaintiffs should have been assessed Afroman’s legal bills and 7 lemon pound cakes.

a legend is born.
