I just think the article, conceptually, is dated. If this had come out when there were dozens of UK trip hop producers raping classic drum breaks and haphazardly looping upright bass samples he may have a point, but why get upset about a genre that barely exists and gets almost zero media coverage?...

I think a lot of it has to do with his tastes. Eons ago when he came through to get beats and I had no idea he was going to become NY rap's darling, he listened to 30 or 40 beats and selected the one used for that eXmas intro, which I've had in the vault and hated for years. Then he took it and use...

Asher Roth - Pabst & Jazz

Fuck Mindbender's thread. New one. http://asher-roth.heroku.com/ I can't believe I'm saying this, but this tape is fucking brutal. Blended Babies and Chuck Inglish slay every beat. and Asher is at his all-time best. hands down. I'm fearful for his Def Jam record... will probably suck something serio...

Jeff Weiss' review on Pitchfork this morning was solid.

It kind of side-stepped the album itself a bit, discussed too much of the hype, which I typically hate, but he did a solid job with it. Kept things in proper perspective and organized it into the album discussion.

this is sounding dope.
They sent me a couple tracks to hear when I interviewed them last week and both cuts were tremendous.

Who's excited for this release? 11.11.11.
