Steve Rifkind Says Asher Roth Album Will Change Hip-Hop
Tuesday, April 14 2009 6:30 PM EST | Posted by: YN | Posted in: FocusThe man who signed the Wu and Mobb Deep, declares that his new artist Asher Roth’s Asleep In The Bread Aisle will bear the Loud logo and will enter an elite class: The Top 5 Albums That Have Changed Hip-Hop. Whoa! Although he wouldn’t say it in the video, I have good authority that these are Rifkind’s other four picks:
N.W.A Straight Outta Compton
Public Enemy It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back
Wu-Tang Clan Enter The Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers
Eminem The Marshall Mathers LP
Where’s does all this put Deeper Than Rap (which still hasn’t leaked. Ugh!)?
4-20, y’all.





Man, miss me with the fake Jay and B quotes already. Headlines. Some of you sites will do anything for attention and traffic. You really believed B would speak to Star magazine? Tuck your tabloid in. And why would Hov need to write a letter to his daughter? Bitch please. He wrote a song! It's called "Glory" and it's pretty fuckin' revealing.

And no you ain't gettin' a flick, fool. Can new parents get some privacy? Even if they are celebrities. Sheesh! Who raised you animals? Party at the 40/40. Paps outside. Rushin' the velvet rope. Don't trip over your integrity.
Put us here if you like. The RR store stays open 24/7. SOPA? Yeah we Showcase Our Product Always. And we're gonna continue straight ahead til somebody up there turns out the lights. Start from scratch? I'm not afraid.
Wow, it’s almost as if Run DMC’s first 3 albums never happened.
I like Asher roth, but his style isnt h
Given his criteria, Run DMC (Any of the 1st 3 LP’s could be acceptable), Beastie Boys “Licensed To Ill”, Eric B. & Rakim “Paid In Full”, Vanilla Ice “To The Extreme”, MC Hammer “Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ‘Em”, Dr. Dre’s “The Chronic Album” and Notorious B.I.G, “Ready To Die” all deserve mention as well for forever changing the direction, business and industry of Rap/Hip Hop forever with each subsequent release. I don’t see “Asleep In The Bread Aisle” having anywhere near the impact of ANY of these aforementioned projects, good or bad. Sorry, Steve!
One.
[...] and we were expecting him to really make an impact until Rick Ross spanked him on SoundScan. Shit, Steve Rifkind had a spot on his wall ready for the platinum plaque. So why didn’t this project work? You [...]
