Most Smokin’ Lyric: “If he trades you dimes for nickels/ And calls watermelon’s pickles/ Then you know/ You’re talkin’ to that reefer man” But “Young, Wild & Free” is dope because it unites legendary smoker Snoop Dogg with young puff dragon Khalifa and it ropes in sweetie pie crooner Bruno Mars, whose hook makes this a playful, top 10 Hot 100 jam about hazy times and not just another album cut to be cherished only by serious stoners. Most Smokin’ Lyric: “Roll joints bigger than King Kong’s fingers/ And smoke them hoes down until they’re stingers. DRAM and Yachty’s feel-good anthem is riding the high of career validation as much as the more herbal kind, but there’s still more than enough of both to pass around. Most Smokin’ Lyric: “Yeah I know your baby mama fond of me/ All she want to do is smoke that broccoli.” Though Neil Young’s classic isn’t solely about weed, the song’s general sentiment is all stoner, and it’s impossible to listen to these skulking guitar strums without slowing down to a snail’s pace. Most Smokin’ Lyric: “Think I’ll roll another number for the road, I feel able to get under any load/ Though my feet aren’t on the ground, I been standin’ on the sound/ Of some open-hearted people goin’ down.” Neil Young, "Roll Another Number (For the Road)".Radio stations famously censored it, but that hasn’t stopped anyone from shouting it out loud in their car. The one line that is, however, is just too memorable to go unacknowledged. Dre’s “The Next Episode,” Petty’s hit isn’t really about weed. Most Smokin’ Lyric: “Let’s get to the point/ Let’s roll another joint/ And let’s head on down the road/ There’s somewhere I got to go.” Tom Petty, "You Don't Know How It Feels".To witness them perform it in concert is to see burly security guards hopelessly attempt to put out dozens of simultaneously lit-up joints. Though it only has a few literal weed references, this mid-’90s rap gem was the original theme song for one of the greatest stoner music duos to date, Method Man & Redman. Spock smokin’ buddha on a train/ How high? So high that I can kiss the sky/ (Up, up to the sky!)” Most Smokin’ Lyric: “Look up in the sky, it’s a bird, it’s a plane/ It’s the funk Dr. The first verse finds Rihanna romancing the stoner, but as she gets into “breaking things” and “the police” coming, the less pleasant and more paranoid thoughts begin to take over. Most Smokin’ Lyric: “I’d rather be smoking weed/Whenever we breathe” 23 on Billboard Twitter Top Tracks and gave some fun insight into the questions that plague a high Cyrus, it’s a bit too repetitive - not unlike a stoner’s philosophical musings…. Most Smokin’ Lyric: “Loving what you sing/And loving smoking weed/Weed, weed, weed, weed” But when Afroman’s problems get more and more serious - he goes from cutting class to losing his wife and kids - this song just becomes a buzzkill. At first, “Because I Got High” sounds like a fun, harmless joke about how smoking weed leads to unproductivity. Most Smokin’ Lyric: “I was gonna clean my room until I got high/ I gonna get up and find the broom but then I got high/My room is still messed up and I know why (Yeah, hey!)/ Because I got high, because I got high, because I got high.” Since it’s probably 4:20 somewhere, Billboard has put together a countdown of 25 tracks that talk about toking up, with each song including a “potency” level that measures their inebriated energy on a scale of one (mildly buzzed) to 10 (totally stoned). But now, as people wise up and draconian regulations about marijuana roll back, it’s safe in many states to roll one up and enjoy (responsibly, of course).Ī number of artists, from Willie Nelson (duh) to the Grateful Dead’s Mickey Hart to Jay-Z to Travis Barker, have gotten in the game, either endorsing or becoming owners (or partial owners) in various brands of THC and CBD, which you can read about here. Most of them, in fact, began singing or rapping about the ganja back when it was straight-up illegal in America. Whether it’s Dylan’s “Everybody must get stoned” double entendre or Wiz Khalifa boasting, “Roll joints bigger than King Kong’s fingers/ And smoke them hoes down until they’re stingers” on “Young, Wild & Free,” his collab with the doggfather of all stoners, Snoop Dogg, musicians have bravely fought cottonmouth and given voice to the sticky icky for decades. Marijuana has served as the inspiration for smoking cuts in rock, hip-hop, pop and (of course) reggae, and is still influencing more than a few of our biggest artists today. It’s hard to imagine that Bob Dylan, Three 6 Mafia and Toby Keith have much in common, but all three artists understand the power of a knockout stoner track.
