ASHER ROTH vs. HELTAH SKELTAH
TERRENCE is creating a couple of videos from the Heltah Skeltah ‘Da Incredible Rap Team’ preview party at S.O.B.’s that we went to the other week.
The question of the night was “Who is Asher Roth?”
Sonn brought out the high heels fa’sho. I think it inspired Ruck and Rock to gussy up their grime game and get glossy. Take note underground rap music fans, the times are past where you could come to a show without bathing and brushing your teeth.
That means you Dallas Penn.

Asher aint the nicest MC out, but he’s definitely worth listening to. White cats are REALLY going in on this dude, tho’….It’s like they want so bad for this guy to BE Eminem, and they hate that he’s not from the ‘hood or got alot of tough talk. Dude is from Stroudsburg, where they actually BUY music, so naturally to these guys with so-called “street cred” that stay gettin’ bootlegged and can’t get money, Asher’s that dude!….I’m goin’ out on a limb and I’ll say…if not for nothin’ else, on the chick factor,we NEED Asher in the game! mattafact, he should close the show, just so the chix stick around!

maybe you guys want him in the game, but I’d pay DP ten bucks if he could banish the memory of the image of his skinny, pasty ass sitting on that throne.
I thought I was pale and skinny but this dude makes me look like Vida Guerra or some shit. OK, not quite, but damn.
And I haven’t peeped the music yet…have had no desire to, either. Meh. Hasn’t caught my attention enough yet.

I don’t know– even in shithole Manhattan 2008, is all that dumb white pussy (sorry white) going to HEAR Asher or are some (all?) of these broads getting paid, or at least comped, by Steve Rifkind or whomever, to ya’ll know, “create a buzz.”?
Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka!!
There are more interesting white boys musically too: check out Iller Than Theirs, some Def Jux dudes from BK for one.
Dallas, I couldn’t make it into the city, how were Rock & Ruck?

This is great… Whats also great is that you’ve totally caught the proverbial “Great Divide” in what is called “hip-hop”. I never thought I’d ever see such a divergence in fan base at a rap show where both sides have no fuckin’ clue about who the other act is they’re here to see. Hell I didn’t know who Asher Roth was until DP dot Com. However I will throw on my loafers with no socks and bag me a trust fund hooker at his next show.

“This is hip-hop right now.”
Game over.
September 12th, 2008 at 3:05 pm
YES, this is vital hip-hop journalism right here.

“I haven’t the slightest idea.”
Great.
