Logic has one of the busiest minds in Hip Hop, and his latest endeavor is an unlikely collaboration with Morrisville’s own Asher Roth.
The former frat-rap star joined Luke Bailey on a new episode of the Fly Fidelity podcast, during which he discussed coming up in the blog era and switching lanes as an artist soon after his breakthrough.

The episode went live on Sunday (July 9) and featured Asher revealing an exciting new detail about a project he is currently working on: his upcoming EP will be produced entirely by Logic.
To those familiar with the 37-year-old MC’s work following his “I Love College” phase, this alliance should come as no surprise. Much like Logic, Asher has devoted much of his career to writing songs centered on lyricism, so the pair joining forces makes a lot of sense.
In an equally compelling crossover, Danny Brown and Logic recently linked up for a conversation, during which they talked about negotiating the challenges of hitting a dead end in the creative process.
During an episode of the Danny Brown Show that aired last week, the two MCs had a chat about steadily writing and releasing content, and dealing with writer’s block along the way.
“Where’s the creative energy coming from?” Danny asked regarding Logic’s prolific output. “I just can’t f-ckin rap that much, man. Maybe I’m getting that age, that’s what it is. But no, I was like that even when I was younger.”
In response, the Maryland spitter said: “I don’t think it’s an age thing. As creatives, we all work differently, you know what I mean? I got this shit that’s just pent up in me, y’know, like I write novels, I write movies, I write albums, I have fun, I do, y’know, whatever.”

He then recalled an interview in which an author (whose name he couldn’t remember) was asked how to overcome writer’s block, to which his response was, “just write.”
Agreeing with the advice, Danny added: “When you writing about your life, there ain’t no writer’s block. If you telling the truth, it ain’t no writer’s block.

“And that’s what I learned — when you trying to be cool and trying to make up bars and trying to do shit, yeah, you going to have writer’s block ’cause shit gon’ get dry, but if you just talkin’ about what you got going on in your life, no matter what, you never gonna have writer’s block.”
