( Thanx to ashantidouglas.net for the video. )
Ashanti sang ‘God Bless America’ for the first game of the MLB World Series in Boston on Wednesday night. She did a pretty good job too, check it out.
Her new album, The Declaration has been pushed to February of next year.
Ashanti is HOTT!!!
Wish I had her legs!!!
….looks quite nervous in the beginning. Like she’s about to enter a boxing ring or something.
Ashanti, do you have to close you eyes in order to sing halfway decent? I say halfway becasue I felt like I was watch a high school recital. But for her it was good. At least she wasn’t dancing!
GOOD JOB Ashanti. I love her. I LOVED the Switch single with her and Nelly. I was disappointed it wasn’t her first single!
She did realy good.. God Bless whoever “Finally” taught her how to sing… They did a good job LOL.
i saw her performance last night..i was shocked that she actually sounded good. somebody must be taking the time off to seek out a vocal coach!
My chick is repin well see this is how you do it you dont let the haters keep you down you take the punches and roll with them take whats been said and use it for the best of your ability everyone aint going to love you or like you but they will know you…..
GO HEAD ASHANTI…She did a good job
Wow, that was actually really good! Go head Ashanti! get it mami

Hate on Haters!
beautiful woman, beautiful voice!
Wow – she did great! She has truly come a LOOOOONG way with her live performances!
She did good. Not outstanding but decent.
the haters can hate but this was an acapella performance and we haven’t heard her sing acapella in a long time and she did fantastic and they cant say she had a t-pain special or whatever you know she did great so stop with the negativity
Ashanti’s vocal skills have came up a lil bit I must admit….
wow. she did a good job! & she didn’t say one “baby.”
lol
And for those ppl on here on previous Ashanti posts says she cant sing, yall are crazii….I think she did a great job….she was nervous at tha start then she managed to pull through, wow Im impressed
I think those who did say she cant sing are hating for sum reason I dont know why lol
Ashanti sounded real good. I wish I could afford her makeup artist. The girl’s makeup is flawless.
Ashanti did good. Her voice has gotten better. I’m impressed.
Do it Ashanti!
Ooops sorry about my poor spelling. I’m at work and I was trying to type fast! lol.
I still stand by my comments. It’s good compared to what she’s done previously, but that’s not saying much.
Oh, she been workin’ on that voice…
good job.
LMAO @ # 6!!!!
She’s so pretty…but anyone could have done that…she’s just “alright”
Great job Ashanti, I am so glad you didn’t say “it’s murder.” at the end of it.
Damn, I was waiting for her to say, “that’s bananas”!
Oh well.
Wow !!
I’m impressed….
OOOH ashanti look nice lol #31
her make up is nice she kinda look like a black version of the girl who plays Izzy on Greys Anatomy (Katherine Heigl) in a way .
Anyways she did a good job
She looks mad cute!
Ummm, if you’ll say that performance was good I may want to go into singing myself cause I could have done better than that.
You can tell she was a little nervous but she pulled through and did pretty good. Good job Ashanti. She has really improved.
Awwwww…I’m so proud of Shani! She did her thing. The girl has mos’ def been through it from her side burns to her vocals to Gotti. She deserves some recognition for the positive.
She’s a gorgeous girl.
ashanti killed that performance. hater scan hate all they want but she did her thing. she looked great as well. go sahni. go cop album in feb.08
that performance was bland. she just lacks vocal power
lol at #23. she did good. great improvement. i guess since shes been away shes been working on that voice. Everyone Knows Ashanti didnt have the best vocals at one point. Thats not hating, thats the truth. She looks great.
Wow, she will never get rid of the haters, ole girl did good and she looks good, i knew she sounds good live when she did that duet with Kenny Chesney and Smoky Robinson (oooooh Baby Baby) she did really well…
like her man Nelly said ole girl sole over 15 million albums world wide and she writes all her stuff (so hate or not ole girl is getting paid) and that’s bananas…
Yeah she was good!
I can’t lie…she was pretty good. The expression on her face looked like she was gonna take a blast in the face from Nelly , lol.
tilt ya head back, hun!
It was ok, I guess. I’ll give it to her, she sounds better. I just don’t think she can sing, sorry….
…so i guess she did have a little room to talk about britney’s performance
Yeh, it was just alright. I think y’all are just impressed because she didn’t sound a mess like she did when her first 2 albums dropped. Good luck to her on that new album, has she picked a lead single yet. I know they were thinking bout “switch” (mess) and changed there mids.
The DECLARATION…TOP OF THE YEAR B*TCHES! COP THAT SH*T!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep doin your thing, Shan.
Yes I am a self professed Ashanti hater, I’m not gonna lie to you or to myself…she irritates the hell out of me.
I have a not had my daily dose of “Ashanti HaterAid” today becasue I think she did a great job singing God Bless America…
Its very rare, if ever, I say anything nice about Ashanti.
ashanti really did sound wonderful, she made poor me want to cry, lol, nawl, but foreal that was beautifully song by her, i gotta give my props where they due.. and she also looked beautiful, to me she looked bout the best out of all the females artist// o yea and beyonce… ummm but i’ll take ashanti!
She still can’t sing.
The biatch cannot compare to even the lackluster Beyonce
And that performance was lackluster as well.
All she did was yell in between, she didn’t even harmonize with the song.
she ok she just not all that …. shes cute thats about it lol
she pulled it off
amazing! wow lol…that a good tone that fits her…at least its not strainy like a.keys
To sing or not to sing. I like Ashanti as an artist and she is underrated as far as im concerned. Hell if they can play cassies ass non-stop on the radio then they might as well play Ashanti!!
Heckyeah I can tell you a women deprieve of alot is that serious you hating cause you dont look like her or have her statue help me out im confused
To me there’s no doubt that she’s probably the most beautiful out of all the R&B ladies out, Beyonce included. I’ve seen her once when she was out without makeup and there isn’t much of a difference than when she has on makeup. She sang that song beautifully, I happen to be watching last night. Great Job, the only thing left for her to do now is incorpate some of those vocals into her own songs, she’s always been good at doing it with remakes but has yet to translate it to her own albums. Good Luck.
Her skin looks so MILKY lol. That is the first thing I noticed. Good job Ashanti.
@ HeckYeah… Beyonce is far from LACKLUSTER, baby.. PLEASE!! Are you serious?!! LOL.. Obviously, you’ve never seen her live, so your ignorance speaks VOLUMES.
Shani sounded better than she normally does. Chick has a regular voice.. Nothing phoneomenal or special about it.. She can hold a note, which is about what she did here… Not hating, because I think she does her thing, but vocally, she just doesn’t really do it for me.
And since the haters like to bring Beyonce’;s name up IN EVERY SINGLE FORUM, I speak on her behalf when I say, “THANK YOU” for keeping her name out there–the haters do more for her staying at the top than even they know.. LOLOLOL
