he does sound like em. But i wouldnt say he jacked his voice, thats a little bit ridiculous.

This guy is sick tho, downloaded his mixtape and hes got some dope rhymes and he stays true to himself.

Bless your soul in finding the 3:50 version.  How in the world did you find it?  I've googled for this severely & couldn't get it :(  Only got a tiny version of it.  If I could give you +10, i'd do it.  He's good.

Really like him, but feel he wont blow just cos of the whole Eminem comparison. Best thing for him would actually be if Eminem would of signed him to Shady I think. A track with Em feat Ash would of been amazing.

Asher's banging more broads at this moment, then you prolly have in your life? Have you seen how many girls come out to his shows? its crazy!

Check this video out its fucking hilarious:

Absolutely. He makes songs that white boys like us can relate to. I think hes gunna be big. Hes got tight ass rhymes too!

Me n my buddies have been bumping his mixtape for the past couple weeks.

haha i know i can relate! Have you seen his music videos? I think hes the only one that can pull off having a game of flip cup and beer pong in his videos.

Talent wise he is alright, nothing special and again, he stands out because he sounds like eminem, this is a no brainer, it's cool that you like his songs but he wouldn't have shot to any prominence were it not for this similarity.
Title: Re: Asher Roth
Post by: everlast1986 on February 25, 2009, 07:08:34 PM
What makes him so similar to Eminem besides hes white and his voice a little bit? if there really is a similarity i think its coincedental or unintentional. Like someone else said hes one of those rappers you don't take seriously but is entertaining.

Post by: Chamillitary Click on February 25, 2009, 07:44:55 PM
^thats pretty big though lol.

when you hear a song & you can barely tell them apart, that makes you scratch your head.

just a coincidence that they both have very similar voices?
Title: Re: Asher Roth
Post by: D-Nice on February 25, 2009, 07:55:14 PM
Yeah he sounds ALOT like Em. Flow, cadence, tone. The only BIG difference is he lyrically cannot hang with Eminem.

well, the Em's old content was way different, now-a-days its probably very similar lol. :P

Content is one thing. We all know Em has made some bullshit songs in his career. But I am just talking about straight lyrics, concepts, flow. Like when Em spit this line on Remember Me

Sick sick dreams of picnic scenes, two kids, sixteen
with M-16's and ten clips each
And them shits reach through six kids each
And Slim gets blamed in Bill Clint's speech to fix these streets?
FUCK THAT! PBBT! Tou faggots can vanish to volcanic ash
and re-appear in hell with a can of gas, AND a match
Aftermath, Dre, grab the gat, show 'em where it's at

^ughhh, what a fuckin classic song! 8)

REMEMBER ME?!? I JUST DONT GIVE A FUCK! ;D

that is one of the sickest lines out of Em & just about anyone.

classic album too, WHERE YOU AT MARSHALL? :-\

yeah, Asher Roth cant see that & never will.

Yessir that song was the shit. Dude was a enigma back then man. His subject was CRAZY but he was so lyrical and his style was so unique.

"That Eminem comparison is barely accurate/My rapping is as passionate, but lacks the psychopath of it". - Asher Roth


Make the comparisons if you want, i think its pretty riduculous that just cuz he's white you compare him to another white rapper.

you called Em a sell out, meaning he is all poppish & not his old angry self, well Asher is already all poppish you can say, so he already sold out. :P

are you partially deaf? play the clip you posted yourself! now close your eyes & tell me it couldnt almost basically be mistaken for Eminem.

ask a person who doesnt know Asher Roth & even a few who do & your garenteed to get the answer "Eminem" to the question "who is that?"

lol, forget it.

it was a joke that was obviously bad and no one understood. :D :P

the point is that Asher will never put out music like we heard from Eminem, but he is trying to use the voice for fans & thats almost a fact.

i mean is it just a coincidence that the next (maybe big) white mainstream artist sounds almost exactly like the greatest white artist of all time?

clearly jacked it. :P
Title: Re: Asher Roth
Post by: Jaydc555 on February 26, 2009, 02:26:15 PM
I wouldn't say he jacked.someone can't help how they sound.however it isn't a coincidence he was signed because he sounds like eminem.

i wish i could have heard him talk when he was like 14-15 & you would hear a COMPLETLY different voice.

there have been inpersonates throughout history, this is no different, imo.

my argument is that the voice you hear on record isnt his natural voice, but one he puts on for an Eminem-like effect.
Title: Re: Asher Roth
Post by: everlast1986 on February 26, 2009, 02:37:48 PM
Yeah but I don't think hes trying to be this lyrical monster like Eminem. Hes more of a novelty rapper with the college subject for example. Thats why alot of people could relate to him. Thats where his originality comes in.

dont be mad. I dont think the reason he's signed is because he sounds liek eminem. I think hes signed because he's white and has dope rhymes. Him sounding like eminem is just a bonus. I highly doubt he is making his voice try sound the em's, and youre a tool if you think so.

LOL when he was 14-15 he prolly just hit puberty so of course his voice would be different. Cham i think youve lost it.

ohh do doubt, i actually enjoy his music, he can relate to me lol.

he can spit, i just dont like the whole Em-jacking voice thing.

ok, 16-17 or anytime before he started rappin; LMAO, actually right now, in a normal conversation, i think he would sound different. not public or with cameras though (otherwise he would have to live up to his image :P).

It has nothing to do with the fact he is white, there are lots of dope white rappers, it's because he looks and sounds like eminem. I can't believe you were even trying to suggest that he only sounds a bit like him lol. His voice and cadence is very very similar, uncannily so in fact that is the reason why he has been pushed.

I played a couple of his songs for my girl, and she was convinced it was Eminem rapping. I don't think they sound totally alike, but he does kinda remind me of Eminem when he first came out.

Regardless of who he sounds like, I think he has skills and is gonna be pretty big. He looks like your average white person, and that might be a big selling point for him.

I think his album comes out on 4/20.
