Dubcnn Exclusive Asher Roth Interview: The Intervention

[jonathandubcnn]

The bad news: Hip-hop is in need of an intervention. Watered-down lyrical stimulants and played-out powdery substances have left us all strung out and fiending for a cure. The good news: The public’s dire desperation for something fresh has shot Asher Roth into higher demand than crystal meth in a trailer factory -- choppin’ game with every top artist and producer in hip-hop you can imagine. Everybody wants Asher and we got him!! I snatched up this dope lyrical slinger and sat him down to shoot the breeze with Dubcnn -- talking everything from John Belushi, Eminem, Heath Ledger, the rumored Jay-Z diss and more.

Your eyes won’t believe your ears when you experience Asher in all his glory, undoubtedly fast-forwarding him into your new drug of choice. Oh yeah, by the way, the other day I got an unexpected call from the future -- and, guess what -- DEY KNOW ASHER!!

[D~Nice]

He sounds alot like Shady though. Circa Slim Shady EP but with a little bit slower delivery.

[Conan]

Yeah, dude is all over the usual Hip-Hop blogs like Nahright. I need to check some of his stuff out.

Props on the interview, Jonathan!

[Lunatic]

[everlast1986]

Yeah his voice is strikingly similar to Eminem from Infinite to SSEP days. The "College" and "Lounge" tracks are dope as fuck. I will peep the mixtape maybe today.

Yea - drop your feedback too!

[jonathandubcnn]

this guy def has mad skills.... but, do you all think the fact that he sounds so much like eminem will help, or hurt him in the long run?

[The_Offence]

personally this dude ain't that nice and stop comparing him to eminem, eminem shits all over this dude and of course he's every where HE'S A WHITE RAPPER with the right people behind him, the media is dying to see another white man succeed in hip hop, eminem said it best on white America  ...so soon you might see him getting spinz on country music & rock radio stations, or on some corn flakes or some shit
