Asher Roth - Summertime
Artist: Asher Roth
Producer: Nottz
Album: None (Promo Single)
Label: SB/SRC/Def Jam
Though Asher Roth‘s no longer the keg-pumping frat-hopper he was when he first entered the game, he still looks forward to Summertime as ardently as any college kid. On his latest effort, an unreleased joint not attached to his forthcoming sophomore set, the Keystone State representative lets us know exactly how he’s gonna spend June July and August—in the process demonstrating that he can do breezy headphone music as well as any rapper in the game. Nottz provides the requisite blissfully chill instrumental backdrop, layering horn flourishes and understated backing vocals over a glittering guitar-percussion loop as Roth drops chilled-out yet characteristically scatterbrained bars, admitting to using Bushmills as mouthwash and indulging in some of the most ridiculous game spitting I’ve heard in a minute (“Damn you’re fine from behind. What’s your sign? What’s your bra size?”). Bridgeport, Connecticut vet Quan ends the cut on a slightly suaver note, waxing poetic about the charms of girls in sundresses. Summertime, as mentioned above, won’t be appearing on the LP, but those left craving more can keep it locked for all the latest on Asher’s yet-untitled, yet-unscheduled second album.

My power is out thanks to some not-so-awesome storms in Chicago. So, tonight you all just get my rating - I hope it speaks for itself.

I can sense a summer vibe on it, but this song is ho-hum all in all.

Roth consistently lays down strong verses. Chorus may be weak but his flow hides it. Definite summer vibe.

This is different from Roth, a nice lazy flow on a lazy beat, 3 stars but for a song crafted as it is, that's a good thing
