    I think that this cd is a wasted opportunity. From those who heard his mixtape and other freestyles and stuff knows that this guy has talent. But it seems like that he tried to hard to please everybody with this album...Not a bad album just a disappointing one.

    I have mad respect for Asher Roth. The Greenhouse Effect, Seared Foie Gras and Pabst & Jazz are all classics in my book. And asleep in the bread aisle does not show Asher's ability at all. As I Em, Lark on my Go Kart, and Fallin are my faves.

    Asleep in the Bread Isle is an everyday suburban rap album, if there is such a thing.

    Roth never floats sham tales of suburban hardship here. Instead, he just wants to have a good time--and for the most part, he provides one as well.

    The effortlessly cool beats, hooky choruses, and above all, his witty, super-fast flow indicate this skinny blond to be a genuinely talented star.
