On Monday evening I sat down with Asher Roth for a brief one on one discussion about his new album The Spaghetti Tree, the lead single from the project “G.R.I.N.D. (Grind It’s A New Day), it’s inspiration, The Rawth EP he’s releasing with Nottz and what his parents think of his hip-hop ways and more.

While you’ll get to see all of those topics discussed later this week and next week, today Asher explains what holds more weight to him: A Grammy or a 5 Mic Rating in The Source Magazine. Roth also goes into detail behind the meaning of his new single “G.R.I.N.D.” Pay attention, there’s a couple jewels being dropped in that answer.

Make sure you check back on YouHeardThatNew.Com for more clips from my one on one with Asher Roth later in the week.

Big shouts to Ryan Hobbs over at Universal for the interview opp.
