Last night while Kiki and Boss Lady covered the Roc4Life.com event, your favorite buyer EMitts hit the official NYC listening session for Asher Roth’s Asleep in the Bread Aisle album.

Roth’s single “I Love College” is certified gold in the Billboard Charts.

Roth, who hails from a small town just outside of Philadelphia, started rapping in high school.

Scooter Bradshaw, former VP of Marketing at Jermaine Dupri’s So So Def Records, discovered Roth on MySpace.

I got a chance to catch up with Asher, blogger Dallas Penn and John Brown (”King of the Burbz”) last night. Check out the video:

Asleep In The Bread Aisle is due out April 21st on SRC/Universal Motown Records.

It includes appearances by Cee-Lo, Keri Hilson, Chester French, Busta Rhymes and Jazze Pha.

My favorite track on the album is “As I Em” with Chester French. The song addresses the influence Eminem has on Roth, along with the differences of the two rappers style and background.

This will be an album in heavy rotation this summer!

    I just desired to stop in and say how-do-you-do to everyone. I desired to acquaint me, my name is Bill.

    I determined to post now because I feel this place as a whole is very structural and friendly place. I love looking at all of the topics and threads here and taking into consideration that I don’t post much, I came to the conclusion to create my very initial thread.

    I recently created my first site and felt the need to share it with everyone and get some constructive feedback.
