We're In A Nice Place Right Now

I've been listening to a couple of new rappers recently, and i'm kinda late on Kid Cudi but his mixtape 'A Kid Named Cudi' is pure fire! Can't get enough of it, it's a classic mixtape and has certainly wet my appetite for a full release. It's sponsored by 10Deep, I like the brand, was rocking a lot of it in the MIA last year. But the crazy hats don't seem to work in the same way in dreary London Town. Although the sun is making some what of a late emergence, who knows you could seem me sporting one again come August!

Hip Hop is without a doubt in a good place right now, with Kidz in the Hall, Cool Kids, Wale, Kid Cudi and my latest find Asher Roth bringing back that swagger of years gone by steeped in lyrical talent. Its nice to finally have something to shout about. Not that my love for Hip Hop dwindled in anyway shape or form, but it certainly went through a slight lull in recent times.



So Asher Roth, who the hell is he you might ask? Well i've only just stumbled across him myself. Well what can I tell you about him? Not a great deal really, but his mixtape 'The Greenhouse Effect aka The Greatest Mixtape Ever!' is certainly something all hip hop heads need in their life. The blatant comparisons to Eminem are going to arise, in part due to his ethnicity and his candid wordplay sparking similarities. But he kinda reminds me of Edan, that might be at bit of a push. Roth is doing alot and with backing from Don Cannon & Dj Drama this tape is in good hands. He certainly isn't without industry backing, with Luda and Akon both showing support. I love his honesty and appreciation for those around him, check the videos of him below with Luda & Akon, this guy is refreshing and certainly has my support, admiration and backing for what its worth!!!
