New Booty To Da Game: Asher Roth

Is he just another white boy tryin to rock the mic like Em? Damn straight he is, but dammit he does the damn thang!!! His name is Asher Roth, and unlike Eminem, Asher hails from the burbs in Pennsylvania. His style and his flow is so ridiculous, that he has no choice but be a be as cocky as he is in his rhymes. He's got a mixtape that is fully endorsed by the infamous Affiliates (DJ Drama and Don Cannon) entitled The Greenhouse Effect, a year old record deal with Steve Rifkind’s SRC/Universal Records and a sizeable amount of Internet buzz... check da Myspace page

Will he be another MC Serch, or Vanilla Ice, or will he be the Beastie Boys wrapped up in one single pale as white boy and stand the test of the rap game and become an icon? Only time will tell that story. But for now, dude is here to stay. His humility when off the mic combined with the self-assurance he displays when in rhyme mode give the kid a good chance of sticking around. His debut album doesn't have a title yet and the 21-year old says that he's not giving it away just yet. Guess auditioning for and impressing Jay-Z must not have been a fluke after all?
