In 1999, Afroman released his first album, My Fro-losophy. This was followed by Because I Got High in 2000 and it was distributed primarily through concerts and the file-sharing service Napster before its title track was played on The Howard Stern Show. In late 2001, the song became a worldwide hit and was featured in the films Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, The Perfect Score, and Disturbia. The song was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance in 2002.

After the single's success, Afroman joined the lineup of Cypress Hill's fall festival "Smoke Out" with the Deftones, Method Man, and others. In 2001, The Good Times, a compilation album of Afroman's first two albums and some new tracks was released.
