The “Because I got high” rapper was not feeling very high at his last concert. In fact he seems to be very agitated and violent. When a female started dancing behind him onstage, Afroman turns and knocked the female to the ground. See video below:

AfroMan was charged and released on bail according to the Biloxi Police Department.

“On 17 February 15, the Biloxi Police Department responded to a reported assault at the Kress Live Entertainment Venue involving Mr. Joseph Edgar Foreman who performs under the stage name Afroman,” the Biloxi Police Department arrest report read. “Mr. Foreman was arrested for Assault as a result of a Citizen’s Affidavit, booked in, and released after paying a 330 Dollar Bond.”

“My understanding is the woman got up on stage, and he hit her,” Police Chief John Miller said.

The rapper has had trouble with fans getting on stage before, a rep told 18 Karat Reggae.

“This was a completely involuntary reflex reaction to people infringing on his stage space,” the rep said in a statement. “It was uncharacteristic behavior that was initiated by outside uncontrolled forces.” The rep blamed poor security at the venue, Kress Live.

Afroman had a big hit in 2000 with “Because I Got High.”
