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
