"When the aliens come to take their pick from the ruins of our future climate-changed Cat’s Cradle wasteland, a stray phone somewhere will still be playing this one, and those intergalactic beings will have a good chuckle."
This is the story of how Afroman turned a bogus police raid into some of the greatest diss songs of the decade - and in the process made himself a modern day civil liberties hero.
