Whatever happened to Asher Roth

[CHERUB]

He realized Hip-Hop wasn't his thing.
He, Kid Cudi & Charles Hamilton and others of that type (Rock fans moon lighting as rappers..) kinda just got phased out.
I think breh had a song where he was singing and handing out nice notes to people or whatever a couple years ago.

Kid Cudi still outchea killing whatchutalm bout.

 

[Charlie]

Pabst and Jazz was my shyt. I met bol randomly one day at a sixers game.

 

[nahnah]

 

[Romey Rome]

probably my favorite song by him. the beat is super dope... I atually did really like his debut album for a while... haven't listened to it in years

 

[Street Knowledge]

He had a fluke hit single and his album bricked. The end

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Dudes like this is why I laugh when people say Wale’s career has been a flop. Pretty much everybody else from that era, with the exception of a handful of guys, had a one to two year run and faded into obscurity.

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Nevwr got the appeal. Dude was basic.

 

[DropTopDoc]

I came up around the time I Love College and Asleep in the Bread Aisle came out. Son probably won’t read this but that was, and is one of my favourite albums ever. Son was nice wit it and had a mad run in 08-10 blog era.

that was my thing, he was different, and he had the backing behind him, it’s like damn dude disappeared into the shadows like Batman

 

[Tetris v2.0]

He was corny but he could rap. He had heart, which is the most important imo

 

[Ziggiy]

Ya’ll forget he showed his hand talking about black rappers wearing chains while “Mother Africa” was suffering



These white boys ya’ll think are cool ALWAYS got some slick shyt to say whilst being guests in this Hip Hop shyt.


fukk Asher Roth

 

[Big Jo]

When he first got into the scene I wasn’t a fan but his 2014 album RetroHash was some real dope sh1t. Just good music

 

[Family Lives Matter]

He's corny but not as corny as lil Ricky

 

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

i was bumping this for a while last year. its pretty groovy.

 

[Motife43]

So I got a group chat with a couple homies. Today we challenged each other to post an album in the chat that we were 100% sure each other had never heard.

I posted 88 Keys - Death of Adam, one of my boys posted Asleep In The Bread Aisle. I definitely remember it because i was heavy on the blogs (had my own too) but I never listened to it in its entirety. So I gave it a listen

12+ years after its release, production sounds like 2008-10 era and the subject matter is definitely for the 17-23 age range. In short, it didn't age well

Gonna go thru his other tapes and albums too

Just seeing this now
