not to be confused with the manufactured aesop rocky . rock came before
Ha! I never even thought about the similarity of the names before, they are so different. A$AP Rocky isn't all manufactured though. I remember when he first came on the scene, the amount of hate he got was ridiculous. Not even because people didn't like his music. But because it sounded southern, despite him being from NY. But he weathered the storm and eventually got the labels on board and, sure, then the huge push. But I guess Aesop Rock did too, just a smaller and more targeted push from Def Jux, not a pop stardom from Sony.
