IRV GOTTI PUTS ASHANTI ON BLAST via WENDY WILLIAMS

Friday, August 31, 2007

In a recent interview with Shock Jock Wendy Williams, Irv Gotti spoke on his “relationship” with Ashanti and about her disloyalty towards him when he was on trial for allegedly laundering drug money.

Here is a write up from Youtube about the interview.

Irv admitted his disappointment in Ashanti for her lack of loyalty during difficult times instead of sticking by him like Ja Rule did though out the trial. Irv Gotti, who is 10 years older than Ashanti, also admitted his use of the drug Viagra mixed with the drug Ecstasy during the time he was having an affair with Ashanti while he was married AND that Ashanti knew he was married!

He also confirmed Ashanti is still under contract with him so he legally has rights to anything Ashanti does until her contract with Gotti expires. [SOURCE]

In you’ve been on Concrete loop for awhile then you probably already know that I made a post about this like 2 years ago (I kid you not). When Irv and his brother were being investigated by the FBI, some of his personal conversations where recorded. Here is what I wrote in a post back in Nov. of 2005.

according to phone tap records the FBI has on him and his brother, it seems like she did. See, Irv’s brother (Chris aka CL) and that druglord Kenneth “Supreme” McGriff (KM) had a convo about almost everything. I’m talking from 50 CENT to Nelly & Ashanti’s relationship. Here is a snippet of that convo. [SOURCE]

He’s probably lying, the only reason why he did this is because she does not associate herself, with “The Inc.” anymore. It’s a publicity stunt, the fat fuck just wants attention!

Like most artists, Ashanti had higher aspirations (i.e., films) so she had cut the baggage loose!! No different then what JLo did when P whathisface was going to court everyday.

He has his nerves using the worD LOYALTY. When he was cheating on his wife with Ashanti, was hs thinking of his loyalty ti his wife. I’m not going to get started on her, because he was the one that made that decision. He made those vows to his wife. I don’t care what type of drugs he was on. His wife no doubt stood by him but he has the nerve to throw Ashanti ‘under the bus’. WAH! WAH! WAH! He knew he was married. If Irv didn’t respect his marriage than he left that door open for someone else to disrepect it. So I don’t feel sorry for him. But I bet not too many people are going to talk about his stupid ass. They are going to blame Ashanti and call her names and other things. Yeah she has her part in it but is was his RESPONSIBILITY to repect his wife. With his PUNK ASS.

He’s just mad cuz she’s with Nelly and moved on. It’s sad when somebody that already fell into a deep hole tries to bring someone else down with them.

What is she supposed to do? Hang with Irv so his legal woes mess up her chances of having a succesful album? He messed things up for her with Chapter 2, & again with Concrete Rose. She rode with him as long as she could, but I don’t blame her for wanting to step out & try something new, Irv brought her hot music no lie, but as an artist you need to grow. Also I find it funny that he talks about her not being loyal, yet he lets Wendy & crew dog her left & right & he just chuckle’s it off. I hope Ashanti comes with the heat this time around, & shows everyone that she can once again over come the hate & keep her focus on what’s important.

This concreteloop person is retarded. He didnt’t admit to having an affair are you fucking stupid? You can get sue for trashing the image of a public figure you dumb fuck. Did you even listen to the interview? He said not one word when he was asked about Ashanti. You copy and pasted exactly what I read in some other blog. This is bullshit, listen to the interview and then remake this post, dumb fuck.

i believe it b/c it was in the phone tap convo so it must b true. i knew that talentless chick was doing somebody to get ahead but i thought that someone was ja. all along it was irv. at least ja has a nice body, how could she stoop so low to sleep with irv yuck

@ 26

Um, he CLEARLY elludes to the fact that they were sleeping together. You woud have to be a FOOL, not to understand that after listening to the interview. I heard the entire interview on the radio yesterday and yes, it is pretty clear they had an affair.

30.

gg boo

Friday, August 31, 2007 /

@ 15 - Naw you’re right on this. I don’t think people will attack Ashanti. Not that she’s not responsible, but I am sure at the beginning of her career she had stars in her eyes and like a lot of other artists trying to come up, she did something regrettable to boost her chances of getting a deal. But IRV was the one who got married, not her. It was his responsibility to not harm his marriage, not hers.

31.

MzCynik

Friday, August 31, 2007 /

I agree with you #15 and I feel you #17. I swear when folks fall…they will do anything… and use anyone to get (back) on top…or atleast in the game. Right now he is watching from the sidelines. And would someone, anyone….puhhhhleezeee tell him that he is NOT the “Godfather”!! He dont have it like that.

32.

John

Friday, August 31, 2007 /

29 you’re retarded as well. He could have easily made those “noises” to avoid the question and move on, without wanting to give a definite answer.

Friday, August 31, 2007 /

Uh yeah like John said I heard the interview and he sure did not say he had an affair with her. But he did say the Viagra stuff about superhead not Ashanti so yeah this is all wrong. Plus a note Ashanti got signed AFTER SHE MADE THE SONG FOOLISH. And it became a big hit so he signed her not by having sex with him since that is what some people are saying. I say he mad because she moved on. Get over it homie for real.

When I first started hearing those rumors about Ashant and Gotti I just could’t believe them but after hearing this I don’t know now. Damn Ashanti I hope this isn’t true cause you could have done so much better than that. Ewwwww! I bet Gotti has a little short penis cause most men his size do and trust me I know cause I have dated two guys his size before and I wasn’t impressed. But if this isn’t true he damn made it sound true by not anwsering the question and especailly by making that comment. Damn I wonder if Ja was hitting it too.

Irv is upset because Ashanti was his cash cow and now she’s moved on. lol

Ashanti is the only member of Murder Inc. left who still has a career. She and Ja Rule were pretty much the only important members anyway.

Kinda OT, but Ashanti’s singing has improved a lot over the years, her acting too. She’s moving up, and it’s entirely selfish of Gotti to expect her to practically sacrifice her career for him.

>>>>>> That’s what I was thinking. I blame him first!! Ashanti was wrong for that if that’s true, but he is MORE to blame cause he’s the one who was married and OWED loyalty to his wife. That man is talking about she knew he was married. DIDNT YOUR ASS KNOW YOU WAS MARRIED NEGRO????? WERENT YOU AT YOUR OWN WEDDING??? These fools are ridiculous.

This is truly sad. I like Ashanti and I’m one of her fans. Irv is just jealous because she has moved on. However, like many things, this too shall pass. You all remember the whole Aaliyah/R. Kelly scandal back in the 90’s? Aaliyah (R.I.P.) went on to become a huge star and people look back on that scandal in disdain. I hope that this will be true for Ashanti. Granted, she doesn’t have a voice like Mariah, Whitney, or Kelly Price, but the girl can sing and her singing has improved. Ashanti will move on to bigger and better things.

63.

Friday, August 31, 2007 /

I believe it’s true,but was it really necessary to put that out there? Irv is screaming “loyalty ” and what not but squealing like a broad in those interveiw questions. Not a good look Irv you seem scorned or something.

Friday, August 31, 2007 /

I feel bad for her, from what I’ve seen of her, she seems like a really sweet girl. Irv seems bitter that she wants to expand her horizon’s & try something new, & the fact that she seems happy with Nelly. Even if he didn’t actually say anything negative minus the loyalty issue, he really should’ve stepped in when they were trashing her, calling her irrelevent, I really think this is going to backfire on him, mad people are going to lose respect for him, if they even had any to begin with. He’s burying himself into a hole, & it just keeps getting deeper & deeper.

@ john. whateva man. If they weren’t having an affair he would’nt have to make “noises” he could have just said the simple word NO. End of story, no more questions. Between his response, the years or rumors, and the damn wire taps, some people still find the need to convince themselves otherwise. Ashanti’s sure got some die hard fans.

And btw, what does this really matter for anyway. Some of you’ll are making a bigger deal of this then they did on the damn radio show…lol. For most people, including wendy, this is old news. If you like her music, then you like her music. It doesn’t change my opionion of her. She’s just a young girl who got caught out there - it happens. She’ll be fine.

SUPER HEAD EVEN SPOKE ABOUT HERSELF AND IRV IN HER BOOK AND IN THE BOOK SHE TALKS ABOUT IRV’S DRUG USAGE AND SHE EVEN SPOKE ABOUT A TIME WHEN JA RULE GOT INTO IT WITH HIS WIFE BECAUSE SHE THOUGHT HE WAS MESSIN WITH ASHANTI. I THINK SADLY IRV IS TELLING THE TRUTH. HOWEVER, I THINK HE’S FINALLY COMING OUT UNDER PERSONAL MOTIVES.

Ashanti didnt get signed until Foolish hit number one so it wasnt about a record deal IFFFFFFFFFFFF they did have an “affair”. Ashanti was a young girl, irv was an older manipulative guy with seemingly a big heart, shit happens. You can tell he bitter about the her not working with the inc and her being with nelly situation. Anyway, the new cd comes out in december and irv said he ashanti diddy mario winans and 7 aurelius did a song together which is prob the first single. Cant wait to hear it. Switch is not the first single.

I been knew something was going on when in Nelly over and over again video he had Ashanti picture in it and all of a sudden poof it is gone and Ciara appears. I always heard Irv told him to take it off. But dag Shan you got him pu$$y whipped like that? lol now he want to come out snitching like a little mouse hungry for cheese lol. get it together Irv because you only playing yourself.

LMAO at all these holier than thou people talking shyt about “He shouldnt have put her business out there like that” Do me a favor and come down off ya goddamn high perch ya sitting up on. We all come to this site every day or every other day to comment on the business of the rich and famous. Now all of a sudden because the dish is about Ashanti (r& b ) princess lol and Irv fat azz Gotti its so personal.
Now I agree that he should not be discussing loyalty in the same sentence that he talks about his wife considering that hes claiming to have slept with Ashanti,but she didnt have to sleep with him.That was a choice and if Im not mistaking she was at least 18 when she signed with him. People do what they feel they need to do (or want to do ) to get ahead , and that may have been the case with her ,but it was still her choice. By the way hes a nasty azz because he contradicts himself about how much he loves his wife,and respect they have for oneanother,and friendship blah blah blah, when every one knows his azz was not faithful to her . Just another cheating azz man as far as Im concerned chasing as much azz on the side of his marriage as he could get ahold of.
Cant say I blame her (Ashanti ) for not wanting to be associated with all tha messy shyt Irv and Inc was caught up in .She probably felt like I didnt join this label for all this xtra bullshyt and wanted out. Before that all went down I felt like she was loyal t the label, or as loyal as she could be. She probably thought his azz was going to be put under the jail and the label was going to be dissolved anyway.Just so happens he got off them ,and wants to make a big comeback and she not as enthusiastic about it or him as she used to be lol. Maybe she feels like another label can put her on an even higher plateau of success. Either way she still has to honor her contract ,because it is a binding document unless she gets a good lawyer to renogotaite a deal where she can leave under mutual terms with no repercussions and just pay Irv off,lol!

Irv is corny for putting his wife and Ashanti on blast like that…Keep your business to yourself. It don’t make him no biggafigganigga especially when he talks about being on Viagra…that just means your old and got old sperm. For real though why make your wife or ex-wife live through it again by going on air…and for whatever reason Ashanti was down, either cause she was young, influenced, to help her career or whatever I’m not saying she not wrong for that but obviously she’s trying to move on and he’s hatin…And who would want to stay with your ass if your up for some Federal shit cause your ass is greedy and wanna get over in a dumb way. I know I wouldn’t. Ja Rule’s still hanging in there cause he’s to scary to do anything else. Irv and Ja bitch made to the fullest!

81.

Sinlee

Friday, August 31, 2007 /

Irv was definitely wrong for putting Ashanti on blast like that. Isn’t he like 12 years older than Ashanti? So when she met him she was like 20 years old, right? I’m know he took advantage of her. She was young, new to the game and probably willing to do whatever it took to be successful. I’m not saying she is not at fault. She was just young & naiive. We all make mistakes.

Irv really needs to grow up. Putting her on blast now is just wrong. What did he expect her to do for him during his trial? Show up everyday to court? Isnt his wife supposed to do that? Ashanti was smart to cut herself loose from a loser like that.

It’s sad that she still under contract with him. Hopefully she can cut those ties loose soon.

Where are you guys going with this? Irv didn’t say in that interview that he had a relationship, Now, it may be a possibility that Irv and Ja rule might have a relationship because he said he had love for him and loyalty. The original album for Ashanti was scheduled for Oct 23, 2007. Why did he push it back to Dec 4th. Irv is pushing someone else’s albums. Ja rule and Vanessa Carlton. Ashanti once your contract is over with Irv, find a reputable manager/Producer.

But forreal, He’s bitter and disgusting. I feel like puching him in the face. Negroe want to talk about loyalty and you was cheating on your wife with numerous women. B*tch please. Well, Lesson learned Ashanti. Always be cautious who you associate yourself with. You even said yourself there was alot of “Snakes in the industry”. To bad you didnt know you were dealing with one.

I know he thinks he is airing her out… and he is, but he is airing himself out a little more because, he is supposed to be a business man, CEO of a record label and he is giving away pieces of his business for a little coochie -

Now, Ashanti still got a deal, getting ready to release another album and has a new movie coming out — and he’s is resorting to bitching out on a gossip radio station… now who really got F&%ked?

I don’t see what the big deal is. I really don’t think he is wrong for saying all that he said. Wendy azz was the 1 fueling the fire with all those good azz question. i think he just FELL INTO THE GAp that she set up for his azz. Either way it went in that type of situtation I think that you would have had 2 be 1 of the best Liar in the world and be able 2 come up with them quick fast and in a hurry 2 dodge those damn questions. He choose 2 tell the truth so people don’t knock him for that

@ THE REAL COOKIE. Come on man, you need to make more sense than that. Just like he didn’t denied it, he didnt approve of it true either. He is somewhat smart I see, he probably wanted to built some buzz for her, since he will be getting paid out of whatever Ashanti makes.

Anybody who has been around Gotti for more than 2 seconds KNOWS he has a big fat mouth. I mean u can hear him half a mile away. If Shanti fugged someone with a mouth as big as Irv’s what did she expect. Every artist who has ever been signed to the Inc all say the same thing. IRV TELLS IT ALL AND HE TELLS IT ALL THE TIME. And like another poster said, Irv doesn’t need Ashanti or Ja anymore. He has his boy toy Lloyd and even he is working more with Jazze Phat Azz than Irv.

i see irv hasnt learned when ur friends get involved in a serious relationship u gotta fall back, now like a lil bitch he gotta put her on blast about shit everybody already knew about anyway, but still what was the point of bringing that up?

rumor has it that Nelly got an ATL stripper pregnant. Ashanti is no longer with Nelly. Thats why her album was pushed back and “switch” is not the official first single for the album.

Sounds like Irv is mad that Shany moved on to a real man. What is the point of him blasting her now? He should be thanking her for keeping the Inc. from going down the drain cause she was the only one selling records and doing anything! Ashanti is growing up and becoming someone who can do without a bunch of wanna-be thugs and be a real artist! Ja has never said anything bad about Ashanti… Irv get a life!

I don’t even see why he even bothered at this point. Who cares if he showed her his shaboinka or not? The trial of the moment is R.kelly. I seriously forgot about this whole Murder Inc thing. Find a new artist, a new name for the record label, cut new tracks with Ja Rule and move on! Ol’ girl put out concrete rose and it was wack. She has a new single out and I heard it was wack too. Cut the losses and be done with it.

This may explain why Ashanti was not in Jagged Edge video and Ashanti’s part of the vocals in the song was cut out.

Irv may be getting his head souped up because Ashanti probably came back to try to get her record put out there.

Another thing ,this is entertainment and amusement for me, not my life.At the end of the day Im not getting paid to rep any of these celebs. This isnt the first time people have talked shyt about Ashanti and Irv and it wont be the last! These celbs know what time it is when they sign their name on the dotted line to be a star.You take the good with the bad and roll with it. Personally at this point she shouldnt even care . I dont see how its any different than Wyclef coming out in past and putting Lauren Hill on blast!People dont like to be reminded of the shyt they did to get on ,but thats not gonna stop it from coming out . I’m not an Ashanti hater! She has actually had quite a few songs I liked and shook my azz to in the past . I even wish her well with her future album ,whatever label it may be released under is irrelevant to me ,if the music itself it good!

Either a publicity stunt, or a bad business decision. I’m just thinking….1.) she is still officially on your record label, and 2.) both Irv and Ashanti still have contractual and legal obligations to one another - fine and dandy. But I find it hard to understand how given that relationship, he would have the gall to say the things he did on national airwaves. Either he wants her to forfeit her contract and take him to court (for slander), or he wants that record to sell like hot cakes. Either way, very uninteresting, and nothing that we did not already know. Moving right along….

Didn’t Irv lie on J.Lo and said that he banged her when she made the video to that song “Ain’t it Funny”. I think I heard that was why she doesn’t speak to him and Ja Rule anymore.

Saturday, September 1, 2007 /

Hey this is all good publicity for Ashanti because now everyone’s talking about her again. Now if she could play her cards right and put out a “hit” song maybe she could repair her singing career. Ya dig?

136.

ThaTruth

Saturday, September 1, 2007 /

I’m a guy and I think he’s lying.

It’s funny how she has a new website, in which she makes a new “official myspace page” where she says less about the inc, that was done about a month or two ago.

She took the pictures off her old myspace page, and I was thinking what is going on.

He’s bitter.

So, he never did say he had sex with her, but is saying that he’s ’straightforward’ just to put her out there. He claims to be still bounded by contract, blah blah blah. Obviously, she really does not want to make much music for the twurp, With statements that he’s shooting for her album to be released in december but he doesn’t know. He knew that this would be to his advantage, she was always tied into that group making music with people only within the inc circle. He’s pulling that same move that producer pulled on them two white chicks. Her momma seems crazy as helland is everywhere she goes, so I doubt if hes being real. That’s all we knew about her. Now you hear music with Jagged Edge and Nelly, and you wonder why is she venting out all of a sudden. Dude panicked cause she aint making money for you. Now he has to rely on that short long nosed lepruchaun looking boy, and ja rule who thought ppl would buy his music cause weezy was on the track.

Ashanti ,If you are listening or reading you need to come forth immediately or we will just believe the shh after awhile,

And if that shit is true that is foul, why destroy her like that?

137.

I really wished the Feds had a stronger case, and locked his dumb a$$ up for a while. And Ashanti girl, if this is true, you are one of many of our sisters out there fckin’ for tracks… STOP IT! Handle your own shyt! Go to school, and figure out how to produce your own stuff.

142.

bkdia321

Saturday, September 1, 2007 /

Wtf? Where did the threesome thing come from? Lol.

Anyway, Irv’s probably made cause he aint hittin it no more and Shanti has moved on with her life (not that Nelly is really any better because something about him is shady as hell). She did as much as she could for The Inc. Now it would be nice if they did something for her and renegotiated that contract.

143.

Quez

Saturday, September 1, 2007 /

She sure aint fuk for a contract or songs cuz she wrote all er songs and he only signed her when foolish hit number 1 so that fuk for contract sh!t is a wack excuse. i think with him being around her a lot and being her protector and so called big brother that some connection was made and they started dating. I mean think about it. why would you get upset she was messing with nelly if she was nothing more then a fuk buddy? makes no since. i am a dude and if she just a fuk buddy i would not give a damn who she mess with if i have not feelings for her. maybe they did go together when him and his wife was seperated. Its not too uncomon (I can give a lot of examples. Including some LEGENDS).

But he never actually said YES either so maybe he is trying to create some buzz for her. And everybody is playing into it. But this is not the best buzz she wants to have I hope.

149.

Jaida

Saturday, September 1, 2007 /

And another thing. Irv aka Fatso isn’t too “loyal” if he’s on the radio, airing out dirty laundry and allowing Wendy and the crew to say shit about Ashanti when she’s one of his artists and someone he’s known and worked with for a long time. He’s about as loyal as Lil Cease’s ass and I’ll leave it at that.

Maybe spilling the beans was a biatch move,but people love gossip,and it does sell .Look at how popular this blog is.If people didnt enjoy hearing or reading things about the rich and famous or in some cases infamous,lol than no one would come here ,and thats real.
Ashanti had 2 other deals with 2 well known labels prior to signing with the Inc ,but neither materialized into anything worth talking about , so why even mention the shyt. Ashanti started out singing the hooks on Ja rules songs (as far as the Inc was concerned) and writing and that gave her some much needed exposure. By the time she dropped her own album people were eagerly anticpating it,so regardless of how she feels about the label now,it served its purpose for her. If she somehow gets out of this deal with the inc thatshe doesnt seem to want to be a part of any more ,and moves on to another label I’m sure her loyal fans will continue to support her if the music is good !

Lesson learned Ashanti: People are foul, yo! Only your “friends”know your secrets, and you sure as hell betta know that your “friend” will reveal them if the price is right. Ashanti, hold yo head up. Ole Azz Irv, chasing drawers while he still married. When people dogg you out, it’s more a reflection of their character. Cheater, tax deadbeat, loose lips. Has been; federal charges. You get the picture. Loyalty? He wasn’t loyal to his wife, so why should he expect loyalty from anyone? Got 2 give to get, yo! Don’t worry Ashanti, by December 4, it’s gonna be like “irv who?” Sad to say that when folk go down, they try to take somebody with them. Ashanti need to do what she gotta do to get away from this dude. Hiz ole azz. Women grow, women change every month, so of course she wants to grow. MJB says, you can’t keep a good woman down, so Ashanti just needs to do tha damn thang. I told y’all R ain’t the only one in the business with a penchant for young girlz. Did he really think he could hold on to that young girl, especially with a limp dic* that don’t work?

I can’t believe you people never knew!!!! Ashanti is nothing but a nasty ass ho. I been knew that from the start of her career. She slept with Irv just like Cassie slept with Diddy to get a deal. Irv is f*cked up for messing with her when he was married but Ashanti is also the one to blame when she F*cked just for tracks and to get “a head” LOL. I didn’t even bother to listen to the interview because I already know what’s going on, but Ashanti did do a lot of people wrong. That’s why her dumbass got sued and lose 430,000. Both of them get what they deserve. Irv was doing illegal shit and is now suffering from it and Ashanti F*cked around, acted all diva, and tried to fool people into thinking she had talent now everybody sees that and don’t give 2 shits about her. The whole Inc is over.

Actually, concerning the Ashanti contract issue…Irv is wrong. Via his own interview with Wendy Williams, he just gave Ashanti all the evidence that she needs to file a sexual harrassment lawsuit against him. Ashanti can now claim that she has been forced to work under hostile work place conditions where she was repeatedly pressured, if not threatened, into engage in a sexual relationship with the married Irv Gotti (her boss)…in what amounted to a form of sex slavery.

Now…if she chooses, she can sue him and his companies for hundreds of millions of dollars, and most likely will prevail in court. The point is…Ashanti can use Irv Gotti’s statements to legally dissolve her contract…in addition to collecting millions in damages. And that’s not to mention any slander charges Ashanti might bring. The slander being drawn from the contention, if she chooses to pursue it, that she was pressured into a relationship with Irv Gotti.

Gotti most likely would be forced to settle out of court and let her out of her contract. Therefore, he should tread lightly here, and cease making further damaging statements, about himself and his company. His on the record account, may also form the basis for more women who have worked for, or are presently working for him, to file similar claims. As well, future female employees may also use Gotti’s interview to file claims against him, alleging sexual harrassment–thus making Gotti unable to serve in any capacity as a viable executive…and or, employer…due to the risk of such lawsuits being filed against him!!!

P.S.-To clarify my point about the slander issue: If Ashanti pro-actively negates Irv Gotti’s claims that she willfully engaged in a sexual relationship with him (Irv Gotti), of her own free will, well…that would automatically make Gotti’s statements…and any contentions therein, slander, thus giving Ashanti room to file claims of slander on multiple counts.

Why should we even be surprised that he put her blast. He gotta have his name somewhere (it’s all a form of publicity). Plus, we already knew all this about him and Ashanti and I’m sure we all figured that much about her since she hit the scene way back when. It’s horrible to say but homegirl DID slept her way to the top—-that’s it.

Nuthin in this hip-hop world is ever surprising anymore. It is what it is.

But wait, does that mean that Karrinne Steffans played herself by defending the fact in her book that Irv wasn’t sleeping w/ Ashanti. Or did he pay her to keep her mouth shut OR he just play the shit outta her and make her think she was the only 1? Hmm, I’m just sayin’……

I think most pll on this site didn’t even listen to the interview Irv Gotti never say he slept with Ashanti and she is still sign with the murdaINCrecords. I think Irv was high when he did that interview for saying Ashanti was not loyal to him. Ashanti was on all his trails!

Irv Gotti you most come and say sorry to all the Ashanti fans for saying that she was not loyal.

They & anyone else really need to stop hate’in on Ashanti, especially Wendy Wiliams “He-Man looking a***”. That girl don stepped her game up & sex’ed her frame up. As far as her not making money, She’s just like the next artist..one single or two might be whack & the next the hottest track out. If she wasn’t making money, she wouldn’t be where she is today. You go Ashanti! Its beter to be talked about than not talked about at all. You must be doing something right, so continue to do what you do Baby girl!!

I can’t get mad at Ashanti. She’s honest with herself and seized the opportunity. Irv is the one MARRIED. Obviously, he does not take his vows to his wife seriously. Ashanti, I feel you. Sometimes a Woman got to do what a *REAL* Woman got to do. If it is f^ckin for tracks so be it, she has made better moves since leaving Murder Inc and their legal issues. I don’t understand why people are so suprised that Irv ‘Viva Viagra ~ Wannabee’ Gotti is not a gentleman and he’s stupid. How will he get any more ASS running and telling everybody. He knows he’s the type dude that women be like ‘I was so drunk that night and he keep talking to me and I was horny and the moon was full…now I’m pissed because the F^ck 2 min’ LOL

IT’S FUNNY HOW IF YOU ARE CUTE AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU-THEY DISPEL RUMORS ABOUT YOU

C’MON I REMEMBER THE ELABORATE PARTIES AND GIFTS HE SHOWERED HER WITH ON HER BIRTHDAY PARTY THE AIRED ON MTV-

HER CAREER IS OBVIOUSLY OVER -SHE WASN’T THE BEST ANYWAY

AND I’M KEEPIN IT REAL I LIKE HER AND THE SONGS SHE HAD THAT WERE CLUB BANGERS-BUT THE GIRL DOESN’T HAVE THE STRONGEST VOCALS OKAY!

What is wrong with this world? Irv Gotti goes up on national TV, producing a show that glorifies his absolute disregard for his family, openly disrespects his wife by talking about how he gets with all these different women, saying right into the camera that everthing takes a back seat to getting a hit including his kids. And the public eats it up. Do they or Gotti ever think about what it must be like being Gotti’s kids at school? Imagine if your father went up on national tv and talked about your mother and how he can’t be faithful and that his family takes a backseat to a hit, and everyone at your school knew all your family’s dirty laundry? There is no shame left in this world. The sad thing is that a generation of boys without a father figure in their life are watching and learning from Gotti’s Way how to treat women and what should be most important in their lives: getting money and sleeping with as many women as possible.

I don’t know why everyone is acting like this is some BIG suprise.

I think most of us got the impression that SOMETHING was going on between the two, but we never paid it much mind.

I must admit that while Ashanti is beautiful and seemingly down to earth, she isn’t exactly angelic (think “rescue me” and “only u”), and her vocal skills aren’t exactly “music” to my ears.

I remember a few years back when they found X & Viagra on Irv at the airport which would support the claim that he made about him being under those substances while having an affair with Ashanti.

The sad thing about the whole situation in general is that the hip-hop world is full of this mess: females hooking up with men holding high power just to get to the top.
