Asher Roth

http://www.getrightmusic.com/2008/06/15/dj-drama-don-cannon-present-asher-roth-the-greenhouse-effect/

just listened to his "don't touch me" freestyle and he wasn't saying anything mildly interesting but yeah i guess he can flow? idk

white guys need to stop rapping about how they are white

aint about to sit through a mixtape that's for sure

so, my school paper got sent a promo copy of the album (lol the label loves college(s) too!) and i gotta, say... it's pretty dope? i'm like, shocked obv tbh. "i love college" is a huge outlier but in the context of the album it makes sense, and really every other lyric is on point, and the song about being white brings up really good points. between this and ugk it's starting to look pretty good for rap music this year imo.

woah. so is it going to be huge?

oh yeah - classic debut

the song about being white brings up really good points

looool

^^thought that was gonna give it away tbh

Had me for a second.

haha i think j0rdan pitched the asher hoax to me a while back and i was like man dude i can't even poison/just blaze that shit, man, it'd be too tough to keep a straight face

lol i bit on this j0rdan, had a PO'd post i just deleted before i realized i was a tard

totally bought that

^________________^

ur twitter tipped me off jordache

yeah i figured - none of my friends believed me i don't think >:[

altho i think the really hot model girl who follows me and sells iphones was totally fooled

i didnt believe u once u put it up with UGK -- should have left out the 'classic' talk but otherwise good prank

what is this bullshit: http://www.popmatters.com/pm/feature/72677-asher-agonistes-an-interview-with-asher-roth/

The marching band kids, with their horns slung over their orange-and-black pads, walked by. To them, Asher Roth was a joke—nothing more than a dreamer making corny MP3 recordings in a basement with ‘Footie’. They had heard about Roth but they never took the time to listen to his music. Their loss.

what is this bullshit:

this makes this look like Wallace And Grommit.

http://i41.tinypic.com/wty9g7.jpg

1. Asher thinks the word "tuffet" is pronounced "truffet" and no one at his record label corrected him.

2. "Suck a Dick Butkis"

3. There's a scene of him about to get a blumpkin that lasts like 5 seconds.

4. Is he really trying to appeal to people by hoping they go "I play Mario Kart too!"

5. "Cheetos be my choice of chip."

6. "You're the B.E.-EST"

7. Is the subtext of the video that this dorkball is coming through to steal all the african-american women?

What's more wrong, comparing Eminem to Vanilla Ice in 1999 or comparing Asher Roth to Eminem in 2009?

it's hilarious that ppl who like this guy just overlook the fact that none of his references make any sense - they're just there as signifiers

"any tim duncan/ spur of the moment" ???

its seriously on some family guy/meet the spartans shit. i hate him so fucking much.

Eminem: "Wanna see me stick Nine Inch Nails through each one of my eyelids"
Asher Roth: "Me and Teddy Ruxpin Smashing all the pumpkins"

excuse me, rrrrrruxpin

i mean, i honestly can see the appeal of this guy. I mean it's so easy for bloggers to go OMG PRETTY WHITE BOY PAT BOONEING THIS SHIT VERSION 4080, but we've had like 10 years of pretty white dudes who can actually rap and are actually funny.

*can't see the appeal

I think rappers are cosigning this dude just because no one wants to miss out on ANY potential chance to make an extra buck on a sure thing since the industry is turning to dogshit.

ugh kill him

lol nah right made a Serious Post about that tweet

somewhat disappointing but probably inevitable that (my sense is) this dude isn't as interesting as the least self conscious mainstream witerapper thus far might have been, but it's cool that he pisses people off

http://nahright.com/news/2009/04/24/sour-patch-kids/

I gotta tell you, I’ve endured alot of gum flapping in my direction from alot of people over Nah Right’s coverage of Asher Roth. “Oh, he’s a gimmick”, or “he sounds like Em” or “he’s all hype”. And you know what? Everybody’s entitled to their opinion. I honestly think the kid can spit, and at the end of the day, that’s all that really matters to me, and that’s all I’m gonna say on the issue.

You don’t like it? Then don’t fucking patronize this site. Or keep it moving when you come here and see an Asher post. Or kill yourself. I really don’t give a fuck.

Or kill yourself. I really don’t give a fuck.

this is a good way to end a pissed off post

He wishes he could call everyone by their real names individually

Fuck eskay's butthurt bullshit

watching blogger beef unfold is like watching two second graders have a slapfight over pokemon cards

i choose you like a pokemon card/i ain't just see u baby, i pikachu

fuck, there's a legitimate rap album do that references jigglypuff and i never remember what it is.

http://nahright.com/news/2009/04/28/on-asher-roth-nappy-headed-hoes/#more-32660

i gotta say - i'm pretty interested to see how this plays out wrt how much sway eskay has

I’m also announcing a new challenge, and this one is for Asher Roth. Step up and acknoweldge what you said and explain yourself homie. It’s only right. Until you do so, there will be no more Asher Roth posts on Nah Right.

Um, if you think the people buying Asher's album are people that follow Nah Right religiously, you are fooling yourself, homie.

got banned from this other forum last week for continually starting threads with "asher roth has aids"

that's our lamp!

him and his tour dudes goofing around covering "boom boom pow" with some lame new verses but it's fun

no

yaagh, the fergie moment :(

this dude's entire career has been one big fergie moment

http://rapradar.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/58487444.jpg?w=400&h=600

lmao

man i'm so glad this guy didn't blow up, would've been the worst

kid cudi really put asher roth into perspective for me

i know it goes without saying but this is really, really, really bad

http://nahright.com/news/2010/05/14/video-asher-roth-muddy-swim-trunks/

kill

NEW ALBUM LET'S GET IIIIIIIIIT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP_CwX9I5kM

this is prob the least worst thing he's ever put out actually

altho it's also like he heard "walk alone" and was like "shit, i need to do something that corny!"

no tofu on this whole revive of course

its funny, this is so aesthetically ugh to me but there is so much rap that is aesthetically similar ... anyone really into i dunno Blu or whatever, is his stuff that much better than this?

http://nahright.com/news/2010/08/30/thee-tom-hardy-bmf-bananas-are-monkey-food/

oh dear what is that??

it's thee tom hardy!!

so J0rdan how many different titles have you referred to Eminem's "Not Afraid" as now, I know there was "Never Alone" and "Walk Alone," any others?

I like swim trunks and a first listen to foie gras is okay
no me, i guess

the 2009 Salem

no idea what that means

he's calling both of them wiggers

whoa, this thread really does have a Bad Ronald reference

I still have that CD. Obviously it's really stupid but kind of funny. "Let's Begin" still is a pretty good song.

this thread is pretty funny

you know what, Foie Gras is pretty good actually.

color me shocked

wow forks

forks is the antigoon

forks repping for asher before he was a total pariah is quaint, him sticking his guns in 2010 is just kinda brass balls imo

we don't always get to choose what we like
and yeah, he's come off as a total schmuck in every interview i've read/seen
but he sounds good over a whole lotta these beats

we don't always get to choose what we like

http://www.asherrothblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/asher_roth-437x300.jpg

the heart wants what it wants

http://www.korubo.com/erling/hararedemo.jpg

imo its weirder that he was into it before the hype -- truly a glance at taste thru the looking glass -at least after the hype he could claim contrarianism

lolz at your presumptions
i was curious about him because he was getting booked in the city and people were shopping him around for live performances with EPKs and mixtapes and i liked what i heard and was aware there was enough of a push that he was gonna be a national artist hence the thread start

http://www.asherrothblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/asher_roth-437x300.jpg

cool, Z S put out a rap album?

wait, you post a lol racism picture when nobody else is even connecting his wackness to his whiteness and you call us presumptuous?

think yer confusing "lol racism" with "lol kneejerk response" in a gif battle

gee how could i ever misinterpret your crystal clear message

u picking a fite white boy?

great posting

so what does forks's card say? "it is because of my display name that I am called corny"?

i'd like to make an offer to some dude to change my display name to "some dude otm" for a month if he promises to take a break from backing me into boring arguments. i'm not interested in becoming the interim babysitter for his bitchfits while he's not engaging with deej.

haha have i been mean to you lately besides light jabs in the your "kick me" sign asher roth thread? if so i don't remember it and apologize.

dude, i'm just joshing with you

now if i can find some pigeon to follow my lead, we can make a waka flocka these

somebody tell roth that i dont love college

https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/asher-roth-flowers-on-the-weekend/

please clap

The existence of this album is still somehow one of the stranger things about 2020.

alright i guess i gotta listen.
