Aesop Rock: Master lyricist, cereal critic

I've posted before about my love for the music ofAesop Rock, but it turns out his wordsmithing talents aren't limited to impressionist rap. Check out this recent post over at the Def Jux blog, wherein Aesop Rock lists his top 10 favourite breakfast cereals, along with detailed justification, and it is awesome. Seriously, I could listen to Aesop Rock describe cereals for hours. Here is a taste:

#2. Fruity Pebbles: This is amazing shit, and occasionally can hold the #1 spot. This cereal blows any other fruity cereal out the box. Fuck a Fruit Loop straight up. The flakes are small too, so every spoonful has a ton of actual cereal on it. It gets soggy in milk (in a good way) and turns the milk all sort of colors. Shit looks like a sweet, sweet oil spill, AND if you're fast, it'll still be cold by the time you "step into liquid". Blizaow.
