The Even Better Times is a double-disc hip hop album released by Afroman.

Despite Afroman's six-album deal with Universal Records, Afroman recorded one album for Universal, The Good Times, and would release all future albums independently, beginning with this one.

The reissue contained, among others, the song "Whack Rappers", which is a diss to many hip hop and R&B artists, including 50 Cent, Jay-Z, Kelis, Nas and P. Diddy.

Around early April 2004, he began promoting that the album would be releasing on the 20th of that month.
