Asher Roth

[pshabi]

Anyone heard of this kid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGPrX38NRZg)? Saw something of his posted on another forum yesterday and I think he's pretty cool.

Download/listen to his mixtape at his site, www.thedailykush.com.

I got it yesterday and listened to it while playing poker online. I wasn't exactly focused on the listen, but I found my head boppin' quite a bit. He gets compared to Eminem (obv) and they are quite similar on some tracks. Still, I think there is something different there and he's not bitin' or imitating.

Opinions?

Not one person wants to post a reply to my fucking post??????

I'm out.

Had a thread about him a while back but I couldn't find it. I've only heard Roth Boys.

Figured that someone here had posted about him before. I'm a good little poster, so of course I searched first. Nothing turned up.

I like him, he's a funny dood. He should def hit it off with the college scene.
Still has some room to grow as far as actually talking about something, his lyrics are kinda simple and playful. His content is very unique though so he gets the thumbs up from me!

Did he say W. Chester Pa.? He should do a joint with our boy SOP.

...and I like rappers I don't need an urban dictionary to understand. (y)

Yeah, first thing I thought of. SOP said he's never heard of him. :confused:

I'm diggin' his vibe too. The nature boy ref is funny.

I think Asher Roth represents half the shit that has killed hip-hop in America.

The other half is all the fake gangstas and materialism.

eminem wanna be with that flow.

he can be rapping for fun and stuff i guess but it really is garbage in the grand scheme of hip hop.

He's getting nailed in a few youtube disses. Well I say nailed but he prolly won't see them.

According to Wiki, he's from Morrisville, Pa. and went to Pennsbury High.
LOL.
There can't be more than like two degrees of seperation between this dude and me. I know a million people from that town.

Can't think of one eminem track that sounds like that "go-kart" shit, but whatever.
