Discussing Asher Roth and then Pondering why I ever wrote anything about this no talent Eminem wannabe...

Hey, this is my first time blogging and it's just a start. I'm sure I'll get better.

I recently read an article in a popular magazine, which I won't name because I'm sure by now they realize their mistakes, in which the profoundly confused "journalist" who worked for the magazine suggested to the readers that they "..watch out for Asher Roth and his blazing microphone skills." or something to that nature. So after reading this, I found myself a little intrigued by a white rapper, who appeared to be from the suburbs of some Canadian city. Kinda like Snow, who in the mid-90s also blazed a mic or two. I got on my firefox, the number one source for music, and listened to an Asher Roth tune. The title of the song was, get ready for it.... "I love college." Wow. Really? I'll give you an example of some of Mr. Roth's blazing mic skills and wordsmanship...

"I can't tell you what I learned from school but
I could tell you a story or two, um
Yeah, of course I learned some rules
Like don't pass out with your shoes on
(Get the Sharpie!)"

"Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!
Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!
Freshmen! Freshmen!
Freshmen! Freshmen!"

Amazing. huh? This is the kind of bullshit that caused the Economic collapse. Mindless dribble that is geared to the ever increasing number of intellectually numb and insecure people in the world. I just realized that I wasted about 30 minutes of my Night writing about a terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible fad musician who most people will, thank god, never hear of, nor endure nearly 3 songs of the shit! And for you "journalists" who only follow what other smarter "journalists" thinks is cool, Fuck off. That includes you, Rolling Stone. I was once a devout reader of RS until around 9/11. Maybe the towers falling knocked something loose in your music reviewers brains because the reviews after the towers fell have been absolutely terrible. You give 3 stars to every peice of shit band you can think of, including Nickelsmack. The worst band in the history of time. If you think otherwise, please try to convince me otherwise. OK that's all. Have a bright sunny day. Don't fall.
