Asher Roth is the kind of artist a lot of people feel very differently about. I for one like the kid. I can’t say I’ve listen to every single song he has done. Actually 30 minutes before even writing this, I couldn’t have said I had listened to anything else other than ‘I Love College’ from his 2009 album Asleep In The Bread Aisle. But nonetheless, I think Roth shows promise as being an upcoming force in the competitive hip/hop game of today. His genuine love for the craft is transparent in his music and the fact that he doesn’t keep rapping about how good his rhymes are compared to some other bitch, is always a plus. While I am not too thrilled about the mellow ‘Muddy Swim Trunks’ from his new mixtape ‘Seared Foie Gras with Quince and Cranberry’, I find his flow and the subject of his lyrics refreshing. You can take a look at his new mixtape here and please comment below to tell me what you think?
