In the new issue of XXL, Marshall addresses the Asher Roth comparisons.

“Asher Roth, I haven’t had a chance to, like, really get into everything, like, really get into what he’s about, because I’ve only heard a couple songs. There was talk about people saying he sounded like me, and he was doing this and that and, you know, trying to take what I do and do it. You know, shit like that. I’ve heard things. But the stuff that I’ve heard from him honestly, which certainly isn’t enough for me to make my own opinion and say, ‘Yeah, he does sound like me’ or ‘No, he doesn’t.’ But the couple of songs I’ve head, I don’t really think he does. You know what I mean? He’s doing his own thing. I can respect it, too, because at the end of the day, I think he’s dope.”

Well, there you have it folks. Fuck more you want for free? The June XXL drops nationwide May 5, Support your local newsstands!

It’s ridiculous how long I had to wait to get this song. Ha! Here’s my fellow mulatto’s new one featuring a buncha Southern niggas: Gucci Mane, Yo Gotti, OJ Da Juiceman and Lonnie Mac (who?). Hope he’s from the South. See ya at the strip club!

At this point in the set, Nip and the Slauson Boys were seconds away from trashing the soundman for continuous fuck ups.  But like a seasoned pro, Nip continued to keep rocking. In this clip, he peforms his cut “Lets Talk $” off Bullets Aint Got No Name Vol. 2
