Asher Roth Gets No Love In This Club

That is the least fun looking party since the Black Eyed Peas threw a party. It seriously looks like a couple of kids in the film program signed out the basement of the student union and then just asked their friends to hang out in the background. "It was awesome, I got to bring my own Chinese food," said the kid who was eating Chinese food. I'm sure that the midget bathroom attendant and the guy dressed in drag frat-boy-on-Halloween-style were constantly arguing over who was the most hilarious part of the video, but then it turned out that the guy making out with the guy dressed in drag was the funniest part of the video. According to Asher Roth. Who obviously has no idea what he's talking about.

P.S. Keri Hilson, PRO-TIP for you: you don't have to be in everything.

Don't let anyone tell you different, Asher. The fourteen-year-old-who-hasn't-learned-to-shave-quasi-moustache is really flattering.


Also, never make any music ever again.

Who's dressed in drag? I watched the entire video (commitment!) and couldn't find him. Will someone so helpful point me minutes and seconds, please?

Why did he walk out of the ladies room?

because he's a total cocksman and probably was getting all fornicate-y with the young lady fixing her hair in the mirror.


(was that a rhetorical question? am i reading too much into this?)

Asher Roth, poor man's Eminem. Meet Keri Hilson, poor woman's Rihanna.

I hate songs about dancing. If I had my way all songs about clubs and such would talk about sitting down, enjoying a beverage (preferably gin), and conversing politely, perhaps complaining that the music is too loud and a lot of the girls look too young to be there, then moving on to talk about how extortionate the prices of drinks are and basically go on to say in the final verse that clubs are a bit rubbish and people only really go to them because they have nothing much better to do and probably no social skills, I would then use the word ergo to start a sort of rebuttal and talk about how I still go to clubs as I feel obligated to as I'm only 20 . People would get crunk to that song, wouldn't they? I'm the next Usher! MUM, GET ME MY MISOGYNY PANTS!

I tried watching this just for laffs, but I only lasted 20 seconds. As soon as he started rapping/not really rapping, I was done.

The title of this post made me nostalgic for the Showbiz Pizza band doing Usher.

I liked Asher Roth even less when I found out that all his raps are written by a rat that he keeps under his cap.

Asher Roth looks like Michael Cera's "supplementary persona" in that Youth in Revolt trailer.

pretty sure when the video finishes the highlighted button shouldn't be "Replay" but should be "Unwatch"

including midgets and dwarves for hilarity is both unsavory and also such a stupid cliche. people who think that's funny are hard carrying members of the idiocracy.


"I HAVE TERRIBLE TASTE IN EVERYTHING AND I VOTE WITH MY EYES AND MY DOLLARS! LET MY VOICE BE HEARD!"


conflicted over using people of small stature (little people seems pretty condescending) as sight gags. it's like the conflict i feel over dumb girls being in 'girls gone wild.'


on one hand, they're objectifying themselves by letting themselves be included in the project, and are (mostly) willing participants. (though 'GGW' def takes advantage of the borderline-retarded 'hot' girls.) they're getting paid, doing a job, making (bad) decisions like all adults have to.


on the other hand, it's clearly not awesome that this is the only way they feel they can put themselves in the public eye; like all they have to offer is their boobs or smallness of stature.


also, while i am not a fat girl, i think including the fat friend in the video and song is yucky and that he is yucky, obvs. (takingdumbshittooseriouslygum.com)
