Asher Roth The Green House Effect





Asher Roth The GreenHouse Effect





The easy way out is to say Pennsylvania MC Asher Roth sounds like Eminem. The truth is, on his new internet mixtape, The Greenhouse Effect: Volume 1, Roth emerges as a clever pop-culture-savvy wordsmith who foregoes cramming 4,000 syllables into four beats in favor of a mellow, De La Soul-like cadence. The resulting verses are as insightful, inclusive, and hilarious than Slim Shady’s best. His Weezer-sampling, frat-pandering future smash, “I Love College,” is no “Ode To Joy,” but it comes off as a slightly shaky start to a lasting, quality career.
