As a result, rumors quickly spread that Roth was no longer on SRC Records, the label which put out his debut. On November 18, 2011, senior vice president of Island Def Jam, Shawn “Pecas” Costner, confirmed via Twitter that Roth was the newest member of the Def Jam roster. Roth then went on to release several other projects, including an extended play (EP) titled The Rawth EP (2010), which was a collaboration with American record producer Nottz Raw. The album included his hit single " I Love College", which propelled Roth into the mainstream.
