Asher Roth is yet another hip hop artist who’s promising career was sidetracked by music industry politics. In 2009, his track “I Love College” was the soundtrack to keggers. Five years later, Roth is back with a new record RetroHash.

I met up with Asher Roth when he came thru Vancouver and we cooked in his tour van one sweaty August afternoon. We chatted about everything from where he’s been to that Eminem beef to what exactly would happen if we smoked some RetroHash. Listen to our chat!

Asher Roth's “Tangerine Girl” is the debut single off Asher‘s latest record RetroHash. Asher made sure to make prolonged and direct eye contact with me while he told me exactly what this song is about.
