Hate to say I told you SOHH.

Asher Roth, Ace Hood, Charles Hamilton, B.o.B, Rock City and others are all featured in XXL's second "Leaders Of The New School" edition, thats on newsstands now. Check out the cover below.
It's funny to me how just six months ago when I told you about how Asher was going to blow up, a lot of the comments were hateful and cruel. But fast forward to today and now Asher is on the cover of one of hip-hop's most influential publications.

Over the years I've caught a lot of heat for my often times radical opinion, so it's good to know that I can spot shiny dimes amongst all the pennies.

The only difference between these artists versus last year's selections is that internet buzz. All these kats stay on the blogs. You labels need to get with the program.

I know I promised you all that I'd have that new Asher video for you today, but it's on my laptop, which is currently @ Geek Squad. Sigh, I hate PC's. I SOHH need a Mac. Anybody know where I can get one?

Shoutout to Scooter Braun, Ray Daniels and B. Rich!

Please, you didn't discover the dude - his handler hit you with some slick talk and gassed you up about the project for the sole purpose of getting you to cover it however he saw fit. Be real to the readers man, you fell for industry rule number 4,080.
