Asleep in the Bread Aisle Leaks!!!!

Our most loyal/auto-tuned reader, P, notified me on Sunday night that he had acquired the hotly-anticipated Ash Roth debut, which I've been touting on this site for centuries. Luckily for me, I know how to use Google, and I found a download link for the album, which has since been removed.
After a few listens, I'm ready to give my preliminary review: this album busts. Hard. As fuck.
Oren Yoel handles most of the production, and his beats slap 4 sure. I would say that "Be By Myself" is the best track on the album, and it is pretty much a good encapsulation of the sonic tone of the whole album. Asher spends most of the time rapping about smoking weed, having sex, and being the shit--pretty basic stuff. But he also shows that he's got some cultural consciousness, on the infectious Don Cannon-produced "La Di Da" and he gets introspective and nostalgic on "Fallin," which features my main man John Mayer(!!!!!!!).
Asher also shows that he's got a knack for narrative, on the whimsical "Bad Day," which has a pretty stupid hook, but Asher's rhymes are charismatic and interesting enough to keep you listening.
This album isn't revolutionary. Lyrically it's nothing to write home about (But I probably wouldn't write to my mom or dad about a rap album anyway), and the production is awesome, but not really mind-blowing or ground-breaking. This is pretty much what I expected: this album is popped-out, and definitely intended to crossover, but Asher flexes just enough of his lyrical guns to keep the hip-hop heads interested. It definitely warrants repeated listening, and I am (begrudgingly) going to purchase it next week for 1,299 cents on the biTunes store, because I want to support Asher so that he keeps making music.

Asleep in the Bread Aisle - Sooo sick
