My man Ash continues not to disappoint. Here's that new joint featuring the incomparable genius/soul machine, Cee-Lo:
Try to listen to that song and NOT like it. Seriously. You're a liar if you say you didn't enjoy listening to this song, and you're a liar if you say you wish you hadn't heard it. The production so far on all of the songs off of "Asleep in the Bread Aisle" has been top-notch. This is the best one yet.
First of all, Cee-Lo himself can salvage any song. Just listen to this one. But Asher holds his own. I'm not saying he's some sort of lyrical savant: he's certainly got flaws, and sometimes his lines are petty and useless ("KEG STAND! KEG STAND!"). But the man has some serious pop sensibilities, and he just wants to have fun like the rest of us girls out there. Obviously this kind of shit isn't going to appeal to the hard, lyric-centric underground audience, but do you really get the feeling that Asher gives two cocks and two glocks about what anyone else thinks? The dude just does his thing, which, so far, means making music that people can sing along to and just enjoy. He's probably one of the most down-to-earth (popular) artists working in hip-hop today.
This song just makes my vag even wetter in anticipation of April 20, when AITBA (get it?) is going to drop. It's just going to be a fun summer record, and I am pumped as fuck to bump it in the Sebring (Also, is there any better criteria for judging music than "Would I bump this in the Sebring?" It is the ultimate answer. If you want to know whether or not a song is worthy, just ask yourself that question, and the answer will come to you naturally. This song is pretty much the definition of Sebring-worthy. On that note, my next mixtape will be entitled "Sebring Music.").
