**T-Bones Records** is a record label founded by producer [Tim Ramenofsky](/source/Tim_Ramenofsky) (aka "Headfridge"). The label was born in Hattiesburg, Mississippi when Ramenofsky was a member of the metal fusion band [Loppybogymi](/source/Loppybogymi). In 2000, Ramenofsky discovered rapper [Afroman](/source/Afroman) and produced the album, "[Because I Got High](/source/Because_I_Got_High)". The record was originally released on T-Bones Records. The title track was soon posted on file-sharing service [Napster](/source/Napster) and made it to *[The Howard Stern Show](/source/The_Howard_Stern_Show)*.[1] This song was the theme song of the film *[Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back](/source/Jay_and_Silent_Bob_Strike_Back)*[2] and was later featured in the films *[Disturbia](/source/Disturbia_(film))* and *[The Perfect Score](/source/The_Perfect_Score)*. "Because I Got High" was nominated for the [Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance](/source/Grammy_Award_for_Best_Rap_Solo_Performance) in 2002.[3]

T-Bones Records is known for releasing artists who mix and mash up various genres, including the jazz-funk-metal sound of Loppybogymi, to the trip hop mix of Savalas Brothers, to the jazz-fusion of Dukes of Jazzard, to the punk-metal fusion of The Cooters.
