Asher Roth???

[hertzhog]

So I stumbled upon some youtube video where Devin the Dude is making a song with a skinny white guy. First I thought he was a producer or something, but apparently he's a rapper. I visited his myspace and I see tons of other big name rappers/ producers co-signing him, Beanie Sigel calling him "the future". And wow-- it's Paul Barman all over again. What am I missing here????

F*ck it - after hearing this play on Hot 97 a few times, I found this strangely appealing.

Paul Barman needs to battle this dude.



I'm eagerly awaiting Faux's report on whether Harlem is bumping the Roth.

damn it


that wasn't that bad either.

F*ck

The beat is nice. But I can't imagine listening to an entire album of rhymes like this. Or Roth's voice for that matter.

 

[Young_Phonics]

Let's not get carried away here. I thought this would be terrible and it wasn't, it was kinda nice.

I have to say, it was weird listening to commercial radio again (while I was out in NY and driving between NJ-NY-CT-MA) since I almost NEVER listen to it out here in LA. Much of what I heard, I was thinking, "you know, this isn't that bad."

I found myself liking that Jamie Foxx joint, "Blame It on the Alcohol." Weird how Autotune sounds so perfectly normal these days, you barely notice it.

the question remains:

can wh*te rappers only make it in the rap biz by using the:

-self-deprecating
-drunk.all.the.time
-i hate women - they hate me

Modus Operandi?

it makes me yearn for the days when wh*te rappers tried to pretend they were gangsta with cred. I mean, if Rick Ross can have a day job and still find time to be the kingpin of Miami, then some wh*te dude must be able to get a few others to believe he actually has street cred. right?

i dont cosign asher, but oren...the dude who makes a few of his beats is crazy on the beats.

Me neither, but I have to say I'm not mad at that track. I've said before that if you're gonna bite Eminem (and he's still doing that) you have to at least be clever, and that track was decent.

Even if he did a track with a freshly-reanimated Biggie Smalls I wouldn't be checking for him, but this one at least lets me know he's not a complete joke. Joke meaning bad not joke meaning "wink/nudge/irony/aren't I funny."

I need a

as well, as I first heard this guy's music last week. It was that song where he beat-jacks "10% Dis" and raps about how much he loves college because it's, like, one big frat party, broseph! Shit was terrible in a way that's bound to make it popular.

 

[behemoth]

yea the shit is horrible

seems to be the solo version of the Flobots

and where are they?

hopefully the same thing becomes of this guy

For real.

Maybe they're aiming for the "Gossip Girl" demographic.

I saw these guys on some late night show. They were so embarrassingly bad that I had to click back to that channel at the end to find out who they were so I could warn people.

No, it was awful.

I've never been much of a fan of white rappers. Most lack the voice that even goes with the music. In fact, I go as far as to avoid white rappers when able. But within the past week or so I've been bumping this COD Ova the Stove Vol. 3 mix cd...and damned if S-Dot and Tukdagat, the 2 white rappers in the clique, don't for the most part go off as hard as just about anyone. This is a serious mix cd and I give it my highest recommendation...
