ill Doctrine - Asher Roth and the Racial Crossroads

Asher Roth and the Racial Crossroads, By iLL Doctrine. A hip-hop videoblog by Jay Smooth, founder of hiphopmusic.com and host of NY’s longest running hip-hop show, The Underground Railroad on WBAI 99.5 FM in NY.

Synopsis: A commentary that was supposed to be about Asher Roth but turned into an extended tangent about race in America. I had a million other things I wanted to say so I’ll try and follow up soon, cuz even though I know the Asher story is old I think the underlying issues run deep. I recorded conversations with Dan Charnas and Amanda Diva that were a big part of my thought process for this one but couldn’t work them into this vid.. will definitely get some of that footage up later.
