It's unfortunately that in the course of expanding this article editors have de-Wikified text that was previously-Wkified and, more importantly, removed relevant sections of text. While I respect that personal taste is a factor in deciding what to include and what not to include, in a collaborative effort like this information that is relevant, cited, appropriate, etc. should not be removed without excellent reason.

I saw in an MTV article that he is 23 years old, whereas this article says that he was born in 1988? That would make him 21. Can anyone else corroborate this? TauntingElf ( talk) 16:03, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
HIs birth year was stated as 26 when he released, "I Love College". Then in an attempt to cash in on his younger audience, his age was lowered to make him appear younger. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.202.123.249 ( talk) 19:35, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
In an interview HHNLive.com conducted on June 2,2008, he says he is 21. ( CreepyXCrawler ( talk) 21:24, 7 March 2009 (UTC))
I read on a website that he turned 23 in January 2009, therefore he was born in 1986, not 1988! User:Reli source
This needs to be corrected. Asher Roth is in fact 23 years old. They even quote him saying so in the following article: http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1608174/20090331/asher_roth.jhtml —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.63.36.16 ( talk) 22:09, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
In the "Milli Remix" song he says himself that "I'm 22, more like Alex Ovechkin." Since the song came out last year he would be 23. Either way NOT born in 1988. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.178.108.144 ( talk) 18:53, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

This is Asher Roth. I am not Jewish.
Wikipedia community, I work directly with Asher Roth and please consider this the last word on his religion. He is NOT Jewish. This is an fallacy that certain members of the media have mentioned and that has spread. I received this e-mail from Dave Roth, Asher's father:
"I am not Jewish; I have never been in a synagogue and my mother was Roman Catholic. Not even Jews consider me Jewish; it insults their faith to count me among them.(And it really bugged my mother when she read this entry.) 2) His mother, Elisabeth, is a practicing Pagan/Wiccan who reads Taro cards and astrological charts. The Presbyterians would burn her at the stake. 3) He was named for both of his grandfathers. Joseph Asher McConnell and Paul Roth. I consider the failure to acknowledge the tribute to my father an insult to his memory and to me." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.120.19.102 ( talk) 18:00, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Asher has not officially confirmed his religion,but, has professed that he is indeed not Jewish. ( 72.78.61.117 talk) 18:52, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
Seriously, each time I try to add that Roth is of Jewish descent, it's taken down. This article right here shows that Roth has a Jewish father and a Presbyterian mother. Although Roth himself says that he is not Jewish in a religious sense, he is definitely of "Jewish descent" in that his father is a Jew: http://www.forward.com/articles/104454/ -- 150.212.28.162 ( talk) 17:06, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
Regarding the line "In his song entitled "As I Em" produced by Don Cannon he raps "That Eminem comparison is barely accurate/My rapping is as passionate, but lacks the psychopath of it""
The tag doesn't source. The song with those lyrics is called Silly Boy.

The entire section of "Personal Accomplishments" really has no place. First, the things in this section are not really personal accomplishments in any sense. Perhaps if it said "graduated cum laude" or "insert actual personal accomplishment here" then contents would coincide with the title of the section. Furthermore, I have never seen (not to say they don't exist) other biography pages of musicians or otherwise using such a section. This is not a curriculum vitae or press packet, but a purported encyclopedic entry. If personal accomplishments are to be gleaned from the article then it should be done so by the reader's interpretation. In other words, if it says "Asher Roth won x, y and z award" then the reader can recognize, if they choose to do so, that this a personal accomplishment. However, I reiterate that the separately dedicated section is unnecessary and, quite frankly, in bad taste for the format. I will refrain from deleting it to allow time for rebuttals (or agreemet) and discussion, but if there are none (and when I say "none" I mean cogent arguments - please no fandom guiding judgment) I will delete it in a couple of weeks...Benjamin —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.89.130.176 ( talk) 03:20, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
This is Asher Roth. Please delete "In March 2016, Roth announced that he is preparing his third studio album Red Hot Revival.[30]" This has no barring on my work and is a distraction from the work that actually came to fruition.
I added the tag unreferenced section due to the numerous changes in the sales and charting of Asleep In The Bread Aisle that seem to be just finding a better manipulation of the existing number to increase the declared prominence of the album.

Asher Roth's father is of German Jewish descent and his mother is confirmed to be of half Scottish ancestry, but her maiden name "McConnell" is an Irish surname, which would meen she is also half (or at least part on her paternal side) Irish. We should add this, we don't need a source because the name is right there. TomUSA My talk page 03:09, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
This is Asher Roth. This information is frivolous and unimportant. Everyone smokes pot. Please remove.
[8] Please view this video, Asher Roth being interview by DJ Vlad about marijuana. Asher Roth admits he smokes marijuana and believes it should be legal and dislikes cigarettes because "they don't do anything for you except get you addicted."
[9] Asher Roth was influenced to do hip hop music by Jay-Z as he said in an interview. As by his song "As I Em" he is also influenced by Eminem.
I'm adding this info to the page, thanks. Tom USA 20:08, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

This is Asher Roth. My Wikipedia page is false. I never signed with Federal Prism Records. RetroHash was released independently after starting RetroHash LLC entity myself to release music after leaving Scooter Braun & UMG management.
My father is not an executive of a design firm.
There is also a bunch of speculative information in 2010-12 sections. As well as Red Hot Revival.
