Here at The Music Ninja, we acknowledge that the relationship between music and marijuana go hand in hand…and we are pretty sure that a good number of our regular visitors probably puff the magic dragon themselves. Being this site’s resident toker, I thought I’d share with you a few of my all time favorite songs to get lifted to on this 4/20.
Bone Thugs-N-Harmony – The Weed Song
’Bone Thugs
N

This song is such a staple and reminds me of when I first started getting lifted in college. Bone Thugs really capture the essence of being high with a dreamy and atmospheric sound making this song so easy to repeat over and over.
’Bombudd II.mp3′
Not the typical DJ Quik song. Usually he gives us a nice danceable hip hop beat, but this reggae driven track sets such a great mood when you’re lifted. Quik talks about all the things he feels when he smokes be it paranoid, overjoyed, becoming aware or not even feeling a thing, all accompanied with the sounds of bong rips in the background.
Mayer Hawthorne – Green Eyed Love
’12 Green Eyed Love.mp3′
I love Mayer Hawthorne for a lot of reasons. His polished vintage sound is certainly one of them, but we both seem to have the same admiration with what he describes as his green-eyed love. Enjoy watching the clouds from above on this track.
Bob Marley & The Wailers – Easy Skanking
’08 Easy Skanking.mp3′
And finally, what 4/20 playlist would be complete without some Bob Marley. Such a joyous track…plus you really can’t get more blatant in a song than saying “excuse me while I light my spliff, good God I’ve got to take a lift.”
Happy toking everybody. Enjoy burning one down this afternoon listening to these songs. As always, be safe and responsible.
