One look and listen to Asher Roth and it’s easy to agree that he is not your average cookie-cutter hip-hop artist. Don’t expect Asher Roth to rhyme about guns, ghettos and brag about how rich he is. He’s just a 23 year old college kid who grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia, who admits the first album he ever bought was a Dave Matthews Band cd.

Like, Damn I don’t sell coke. Damn, I don’t have cars or 25-inch rims. I don’t have guns. I finally got to a point where I had the confidence to do this thing myself, and I was making music for me. And it turns out, a lot of people feel the same way I do.“
