Joseph Edgar Foreman (born July 28, 1974 in Palmdale, California) better known by his stage name Afroman, is a rapper and guitarist from Hattiesburg, Mississippi.

His best-known song is the 2001 novelty song "Because I Got High", which gained popularity through Napster, local radio play, a feature on Howard Stern's radio show, the movie "Disturbia" starring Shia LaBeouf, The Perfect Score, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (and accompanying soundtrack). Arguably his second most popular song, "Crazy Rap" (which has also gained popularity through P2P clients), is mostly referred to as "Colt 45".
