This Weed songs list is not your same old same old list. Our staff argued for hours trying to bring a list that doesn’t include Cypress Hill and Snoop Dogg, even though they are legends but it would of been cliche’.
The best-kept secret in underground hip-hop is Chester Watson. The Miami, Florida-born rapper incorporates cannabis-related topics into his melancholy, sometimes darker-themed songs, which are then wrapped up in loose, Japanese-inspired rhythms. Purple Leaves, which starts with “marijuana legalization” and ends with “I got a zoot, and now I’m sailing on the highest boat,” is a brilliant example of Watson’s love of marijuana and his enthusiasm for pot legalization. Stunning images. Fantastic vibes. Wonderful music to start a smoking session.
It is practically unnecessary to introduce Madvillain. The 2004 release of Madvillainy, a joint hip hop effort by the late MF DOOM and Madlib, is widely regarded as one of the best rap albums ever. One of this album’s highlights is America’s Most Blunted. It honors and promotes marijuana’s use as a creative spark, which was undoubtedly a factor in the birth of Madvillainy. Not surprising at all. The finest music is made with marijuana. We advise you to listen to America’s Most Blunted from beginning to end once you’ve liked it repeatedly. You won’t be sorry. Make sure to invite your friends over for a smoke session as well. That will make enjoying the record more memorable.
The underrated weed-inspired song Personal OG by Freddie Gibbs features a racy 2000s sound that perfectly complements his spitfire verse. The song’s lyrics are a homage to marijuana, with frequent allusions to Purple Kush and OG, two of the greatest cannabis strains ever. Be sure to start your playlist of cannabis songs with this. It will undoubtedly help you relax and focus.
A member of Soul Position and the creator of Weightless Records, Blueprint is no stranger to hip hop with a groovy 90s vibe, upbeat beats, and cannabis-related lyrical topics. The ideal illustration and crucial addition to your smoke session soundtrack is No Half Smokin’. Simply await the chorus. It’s upbeat, enjoyable, and straightforward—exactly what you need when the THC effect kicks in. If No Half Smokin’ is your thing, play the full Iron & Niacin record through from beginning to end. It’s excellent and sadly underappreciated.
California, a US state that is generally referred to as the “heart and soul of recreational cannabis,” is home to the relatively obscure but immensely popular underground rapper Abstract Rude. Smokin n Hurr, a song with Moka Only and Prevail Wonder, really showcases his enthusiasm for all things eco-friendly and euphoric. When the THC high kicks in and your internal mind grooves to the beat, the song offers a breathtaking variety of lyrical gems for you to soak in.
The greatest cannabis song you’ve never heard is Aceyalone’s High Lights. It has a smooth, laid-back synth sound, an easy-to-follow rhythm, and calming female vocals for the ideal cannabis session. Lyrically, it supports the global legalization of cannabis in a way that is to be expected. What is there to dislike about that? Even better, the song has one of the most beautiful piano licks we’ve ever heard. Accept Aceyalone, please. Accept High Highlights.
In comparison to his popular peers Jay-Z and Andre 3000, the late Mac Miller will always be remembered as the person who produced some of the chillest hip-hop songs ever. Particularly in the later portion of his career, Mac’s utilization of genuine instruments, distinctive singing style, and compositional skills set him apart from the competition. Give Me Downs, a song from his posthumous Circles album that was released in 2020, isn’t at all about marijuana, but the mood of the song shouts, “Let’s have a smoke session right now!” The bass is hypnotic. The rhythm is soothing. Also, his voice range is as simple as the bowl you just struck. Enjoy!
Another Mac appears on the list, but this time it’s the one and only Mac Lethal, a hip-hop artist renowned for his distinctive, upbeat, and occasionally party-type approach. So don’t be deterred by that description. Your marijuana music playlist should definitely include Weed & Coffee. The atmosphere strikes a wonderful mix between calm and frantic. The pace of Lethal is swift. The rhythm is simple. Subtle vocal samples and the bass blend together. A pretty good blending of audio contrasts. The line “All I want to do is get up early in the morning/Smoke a little pot and drink some fucking coffee” is one we should all live and die by.
Logic continued by saying that it would be a “wonderful” idea to release a covers album, and if “Weed Song” is any indicator, he may be following through on that plan. He said, “I should make a full album of fucking hard ass 90s tracks and name it Logic Best Hits, and get them all compensated, and publishing, and take care of all the legends and the goat’s and the great’s from the 90s.”
