Asher Roth - Turnip The Beet
Artist: Asher Roth
Producer: David Appleton
Album: Ash Wednesday Series
Label: SB/SRC/Def Jam
For most emcees, finding a lane and building a fanbase inside that lane is imperative to longevity in the game. Asher Roth, however, has more lanes than a bowling alley. He broke out in 2009, with the frat anthem I Love College, but has since showed a more aggressive, lyrical side as evidenced on Truck North’s Capital Crime. On the Rik Cordero-directed Turnip The Beet, the PA native takes to the streets (and fast food spots) of New York to showcase his boom-bap style, rattling off bars over a swift Dave Appelton beat. The title isn’t the only clever wordplay Ash has in his arsenal; his relentless flow is sure to have you rewinding the cut to make sure every line is soaked up and understood. Turnip The Beet is not part of an album or larger release, but it is the latest entry in his Ash Wednesday Series.

I've been impressed with Asher since I heard him freestyling on Tim Westwood's show. He's really talented...his lyrics and style on this track sound like something eminem used to do more of, repeat the same sound over and over in his rhymes like crazy. Kinda OCD-like. I dig, Roth sounds great here.

DJ Booth Fun Fact: I served as Assistant Director on this video, behind Rik. I wonder if I'm the first artist ever to have a project hosted by the 'Booth AND to have been a behind the scenes player for another MC's video? History in the making :]
