Music: Asher Roth...the next Eminem?

Asher Roth is an incredible lyricist with a smooth delivery...who also happens to be a skinny white kid.



Here's DJ Drama introducing a little verse from him on Rap City.


Here, he spits a verse on The Clipse's "Mr. Me Too" beat.


If you do a YouTube search for his name, you'll find all types of stuff.



He just released The Greenhouse Effect mixtape with DJ Drama and Don Cannon. You can listen to the entire thing and/or download it for free here.

Movies: My quick Wanted review



I went to see Wanted on Friday night. It was quite awesome.

It was like The Matrix meets Fight Club, minus the originality of those two films. You still get a bunch of badass scenes and special effects and stuff, though.

My problem with Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk was that they were so formulaic and predictable, with several slow parts, that I found myself bored and not paying attention at times. (Granted, due to a lifetime of the instant gratification that comes with channel surfing and web browsing, I have an extremely short attention span.) But there wasn't one time during Wanted that I looked at my watch to see how long it'd been since it started.

My only complaint is that they showed most of the best shots in the trailer and commercials. They should have saved some of it for only in the movie.

I give it a solid 3 Preahes.

Oh, and BTW, Angelina Jolie is too skinny now. She needs to put back on about 15-20 lbs. She was perfect when she was curvy.



I can't wait to see Wall-E next. It's got a 98% on Rotten Tomatoes and is supposed to be f*cking brilliant.

Preash: A Night in Uptown

So Work Dave and I ventured to Uptown (what they call downtown in Charlotte) to meet up with Triz and booze it up.

We drove to the light rail and took that to Uptown with the intention of crashing at John's place. It's been a while since I've gone out knowing that I wouldn't have to drive home. There's nothing more liberating than realizing that you can get as obliterated as you want and not have to worry about driving. Great stuff.

We had a few at Triz's then went to a place called Neighborhood Theatre in NoDa (North Davidson) to peep a Canadian band called Islands. I had never heard of them before but was in the mood for some live music and liked what I read about their style.

They were pretty awesome. They had two Asian violin players in the band.

Your boy at the concert. You can see one of the violin players in the bkg.


Triz and I tag-teaming the light rail safety fence thingy.


Gettin' it.


Work Dave and Triz befriended a couple of ladies.


I seemed to have a thing for inanimate objects that night.


Dunno.


Captain Smooth

The night ended with a late-night wrestling session. Any of my former roommates will tell you that I have a tendency to incite such events when extremely inebriated. Today I have a gorgous raspberry on my face, bruises all over and multiple carpet burns to show for it. Very professional-looking.
