Asher Roth - "More Cowbell"
We know a lot of people hate on Asher but as far as rhyming goes, he has to be one of the better emcees in the game. He has a way of not only telling a story but making it all rhyme perfectly and a lot of the time it seems like the words he uses should not rhyme as well as he makes them. So this is why we chose "More Cowbell" for our Lyrics of the Week.

And we sip a glass of Merlot,
While I blow the Portabello,
Like Cruello with a Cigarillo"
And we sip a glass of Merlot,

"But this dog's off his leash,

"But this song ain't done yet, so son you start marching,
A marksman, Part Marge, Part Bart Simpson,
But the other parts Descartes, Bars is raw wisdom,
My boss art? I talk part of a larger mission,
But you'd rather slack off with Sharks than pay attention"

"Now how you want to pay for that? Straight cash,
Evil Laugh,
Yeah, I've been playing phone tag for the last,
6 months with my label, Tell them fools to call me back"
"Fade away, Himalayan retreat to find me,
Good grief. Loose leaf? I treat it like Bruce Lee,
