"Afro Puffs" is the first single released by the Lady of Rage in 1994 from the Death Row labeled Above the Rim: The Soundtrack. The extended, video, and instrumental version on the single samples "Superman Lover" (Intro) by Johnny "Guitar" Watson. The original song samples "Love That Will Not Die", also by Johnny "Guitar" Watson. The term that the title refers to is a hairstyle in which the hair is tied into ball-shaped masses at the top or sides of the head.
The song is featured in the 2013 video game Grand Theft Auto V's 2014 "enhanced edition" re-release. The song was performed live at the 1995 Source Awards, as well as at the 2008 BET Hip Hop Awards. In popular media, comedienne Tiffany Haddish performed the song during Lip-Sync Battle on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.
