It should come as no surprise that a bouncy, potential-summer smash (the lead-off single for
Is This Too Orange?) has arrived courtesy of Asher Roth. He signed with Def Jam on the heels of Mac Miller's #1 debut, and that was no coincidence. We can be fairly certain that when the two parties sat down to work out a deal, the discussion centered around the viability of white MCs in today's market, and a return to stardom for Asher. Is this the song that will do it?
Who knows. It's got the right sound, a feature from a hot artist, and the type of content that leads to heavy spins in the summer. I'm rooting for a comeback from Asher, as he attempts to get that "first white rapper post-Eminem" buzz back.
