Asher Roth is leaving Steve Rifkin and SRC/Universal Records and signing onto Def Jam Records, says Shawn Pecas, VP of Lifestyle, Promotion and Marketing for Island Def Jam. The suburban rapper has also created a new mix tape, Pabst & Jazz, that will be released Dec. 21. A sophomore album titled Is This Too Orange will drop early next year and will feature the touches of Pharrell Williams and Nottz Raw.

Roth grabbed attention after his successful debut album Asleep in the Bread Aisle was released in April 2009.
