Even College Kids Have Street Cred


Alright everybody now if you havent formally been introduced this is Asher Paul Roth but in the rap game he goes by Asher Roth. Dude is crazy talented and gets called the next Eminem, and he's earned every bit of the hype. He's apart of the freshman class of 09 and dude is nice. His "gimmick" is "college kid," its not intentional but thats how a lot of kids see him because of his single "I Love College," where he sampled an old Weezer song. But anyway he got a lot more respect from me after this...............

According to his publicist, none other than Asher Roth was involved in detaining the man who just made a bomb threat on an Atlanta-to-LAX flight. The rapper was on his way to LA for a performance on Carson Daly. The LA Times reports:

"The unidentified man was aboard Delta Airlines Flight 110, which was approaching Los Angeles, when he got up and stated he had a bomb, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said.

"There was an altercation with multiple passengers, who ultimately subdued the man with plastic ties. At one point he tried to exit through one of the aircraft doors after the flight landed at LAX."

Roth gave a statement to the FBI, and has been asked not to speak about the incident at this time.
