Black on Black Crime. White Rap on White Rap Love.
In an interview with Detroit’s Metro Times, Em admits coppin’ Asleep In The Bread Aisle.
“Well, Ashley Roth has actually said, I think, in a song that he was influenced by me. And that’s fine. I feel great when other artists are influenced by me. I mean, it’s certainly flattering. But as far as people saying he sounds like me and shit like that, well, I got his album and I don’t think it sounds anything like me. I was just listening to it the other day, in fact. That’s one of the “catch-up” music things I mentioned earlier. I really wanted to check him out because people have been telling me to check him out. And I think the kid is dope. I think he’s good and I don’t think he sounds like me. It’s kinda sad that just because he’s white and he raps, then he’s automatically gonna get that.”

After the jump, Marshall also speaks on his new special friend. You Stans will love it.
Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now. Tracks like "Devoted" with Bun B and the title track hit different when you are just cruising around the city late at night. If you are heading out to grab the physical copy or hitting up a late-night listening session across town, trying to flag down reliable taxi services can sometimes be a real hassle, so planning ahead definitely saves the mood. Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
