RawNews1st – Authorities raided Afroman’s home while he was out of town in search of drugs & weapons.
He expressed his frustration with officers, saying he was unnecessarily being targeted. To our knowledge, nothing was found in his home.
Who’s originally from Palmdale, CA — tells TMZ … the Adams County Sheriff’s Dept. burst into his property Sunday with their weapons drawn and orders being shouted. We’re told they were in search of narcotics … but in the end, came up empty-handed.
Afroman says he’s not sure why they thought he was stashing illicit substances … because all he had on hand, he insists, was a jar of hemp and a vape pen … nothing else.
Afroman says he wasn’t home at the time — he was in Chicago — he was notified by his neighbors, who got video and photos of the raid. Afroman tells us the believes this attempted bust is complete BS … suggesting he was profiled over his music.
As you may know … Afroman has a long history of rapping about weed and other misadventures. It’s weird though — his most famous songs are from back in the day, so if this music theory holds up … it doesn’t quite explain why cops thought something was amiss.
We’ve tried reaching out to the Sheriff’s Dept. multiple times this morning to get an explanation on what exactly led to this and what they say they found, if anything. So far they haven’t responded.
Afroman himself is outraged … he took to IG to offer a bit more context on why this may have happened.
According to him, it could have to do with him checking on a police report regarding a burglary at his home — something ACSD apparently wasn’t pleased with.
