Afternoon is the period between noon and early evening. The precise time at which it ends is subjective but often understood to be the time at which daylight begins to fade.

The term lacks a clear definition because it was in use long before precise timepieces became widespread. Hence, words and phrases that refer to general periods in the day were more practical.

The term should not be confused with the phrase "after noon", which is a translation of the Latin "post meridiem" (p.m.) as used in the 12-hour clock, meaning a time of day between noon and midnight.

In Australia and New Zealand, the word "arvo" is a slang term for afternoon.

On December 16, 2011, Jhené signed a recording contract with No I.D.'s record label Artium distributed through Def Jam Recordings.

Her older sisters Miyoko and Jamila were in the R&B group Gyrl and toured with Immature, who were signed to MCA/Silas Records. This led to Jhené’s first meeting with producer Chris Stokes when she was five years old. Eventually Stokes heard her sing. When B2K signed with Epic Records, Jhené was signed as well. She served as the opening act for B2K on the Scream Tour 3.
