What I'm Listening To:

While working at a desk you need an appropriate amount of music to indulge in. Due to the fact I've worked in an office for a year I consistently need new music. This week I've stumpled on to a rapper from the Burbs of Pennsylvania, PA. and continued to listen to a MC from D.C.

Asher Roth



His mixtape is called the GreenhouseEffect Vol. 1 and its a good listen. He is full of clever punchlines and pop culture references. Asher's 22 so many of his references come from a cultural space I would have experienced.




Wale

Olubowale Victor Akintimehin or Wale as he goes by is a rapper out of the D.C. area who mixes clever witticisms with the usual boasting of east coast rappers. To put it simply I enjoy this man's work and so should you because he refers to the Contra code for extra men in a song. Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start Select

Wale's "The Mixtape About Nothing" references Seinfeld for title and artwork.



Here's a video for W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E.



Coincidentally both these rappers compare themselves to this man




Peace and much love, also Cheers

Mighty Muggin'

I like this little guy! So I bought it mannnn. He's sitting on top of a box of video games on my media shelf. I'm not sure if I'll pick up any more Mighty Muggs, I haven't collected anything since shotglasses in middle school (that was some fucking foreshadowing). He cost me a sweet Ten Spot and I will look at him filled with happyness at least twice in my life. I've spent much more than $10 on things that have caused me nothing but frustration, for example Krusty from the Simpson's gameboy game. That game was impossible for me and stupid. So me and Iron man we're good.
