Send us an e-mail with the subject: “GWF – Asher Roth.” Be sure to include your Gamertag and home town.
He doesn’t come from the mean streets of the tough city, his roots are in suburbia. But he has impressed rap legends like 50 Cent and Ludacris with his brash and fun style. “[Rap] is for everybody. I couldn’t rap about the drugs that I had or the guns that I sold, but I could rap about how much fun I was having hanging out with my friends. That’s the stuff that felt right to me,” he says. A friend sent a few of his tracks on his MySpace page to former So So Def marketing director Scooter Braun, and he was soon signed to a label. His debut album, Asleep in the Bread Aisle, contains the hit single “I Love College,” and has led to him putting on a series of live sold-out shows where the fun really begins. “My vision is to put on the dopest live show possible,” says Roth. “Let’s make it like Woodstock.”
