REAL TALK…u aint nuffin but the truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

the song is cute tho–she will never be a hit..as soon as beyonce drops lata this year…ashanti will be thing of the past once again…lol..

#219 and #221

Yeah Jennifer won her Oscar but have you heard from her since? Hell no so it looks like Jennifer is the one who got the short end of the stick. Beyonce is the one in the news every day and the most popular and successful black female artist which is why EVERY Female artist gets compared to her not just Ashanti so you don’t know what you talking about. Just last week people were comparing Janet to Beyonce so that shows you don’t be on here often. And Alicia, Mary all them are good but Beyonce is more popular than them and has had the most success overall as an artist. I mean she’s an international icon whether you like her or not so fall back.

The last person on earth who’s a threat to Beyonce is Ashanti. Oh please ya’ll Ashanti fans wish. Ashanti is just going through what every female artist goes throught and that’s being compared to the almighty Beyonce. The world compares every black female artist to her so whether you like her or not she is at the top of the game so you can kick rocks b/c she ain’t going no where. As for Ashanti she’s definitely no threat to Bey so even if she does have success with this song she has a looooong way to go to catch up to Beyonce and that’s a fact.

UMMM ITS CUTE

I think she done done ‘the Keyshia Cole’ and got some voice lessons. Sounds better than before. Cute song.

um… i absolutely love this song and ashanti i am sooo proud to be a stan, i think there is enough room for all the singers and i don’t see any reason for comparison,it’s dumb and this is 08′ c’mon guys BEYAWNCE is cool but annoying i see her too much that is why i am excited to see someone else so please stop hating………..

Like the song. Good song choice. She better pitch it to radio soon before people get tired of it.

oh my god, she still can’t sing…, lol why, just leave it alone sweety with them tired ols elementary runs and whiney vocals, i just couldn’t take it. garbage..

Jennifer has been busy doing movies. And working hard on a album that has not come out yet. So yeah it is only natural for Jennifer not to be one tv all the time to stay relevant. Kind of a slap in the face to Beyonce don’t u think? For Jennifer first acting gig she sweeps an oscar right underneath Beyonce’s nose. DAMN!

Two..the only reason people like u would think Alicia and Mary is less appealing, is because they are not money hungry like your idol. Endorsing their names to the hightest bidder to fools like u. Hell I’m expecting for Beyonce to sell cheese next, I bet fools like u would buy it. =)

Three only a week person would not admit that Beyonce has imitated Janet’s move. Therefore of course they will be comparisons about Janet and Beyonce. U and I both know Janet Jackson is the most imtitated female entertainer after Michael.

Mmm…I was just wondering if Jennifer Hudson comes out with a banging album for her first try and wins a grammy. What would that mean that mean? (Sigh) Just a thought.

Toodles..

weak* and on*…sorry typos

I don’t like it 4 some reason I dunno. I really don’t like the production at all. Bad first single choice too.

^^^SMH I’m so sick of the Ashanti stans. If Jennifer was so great then she’d have an album out but she ain’t so obviously she scared of Beyonce. LMAO Come on we all know Beyonce has waayyyy more fans than Jennifer so she definitely won’t sell like her. Who cares about Jennifer? Nobody but you obviously b/c nobody else brought her up. Beyonce is a legend so get used to her. Let’s see

Beyonce= lead singer of the best selling female group of all time, first female to win international artist of excellence over Janet, Mary, Alicia, Jennifer and everybody else you named b/c she’s more famous and has more international success than them, 50/11 endorsements/commercials, sold 130 mill records, platinum 160 times, 150 awards, 183 mag covers, first singer on the SI cover, first black female to win ASCAP songwriter of the year, 10 grammy’s, I mean Beyonce’s list of success goes on and on it’s VERY long. LMAO

Jennifer=1 oscar and she’s already forgotten. Last time I checked Jennifer was trying to be a singer and we all know Beyonce rulese the music world as far as black female artists are concerned

Nice try but you can’t compare Beyonce’s success to anybody’s. That girl has made history so I know it must make you sick to your stomache that’s she the most popular and successful black female artist. LMAO Now choke on that!!! LMFAO

I think it will be a hit! The reason why Beyonce is brought up in all topics is because Beyonce is the one to beat. Beyonce is the ONLY female in R&B/pop music who is on top of her game, consistantly like Alicia Keys. I am NOT by any means a Ashanti fan personally I think she doesn’t have the package that Alicia or Beyonce has in terms of talent and vocal ability but I do like the new song so congrats to Ashanti for actually getting a hit.
______________________________________________________________________
Thank you Chris, Beyonce, Alicia are the two best R&B Artist under 30! And the most consistant! And they use Real Live Instrumentation in their songs!

Wow I actually like the song. Ashanti has actually improved. We’ll see how this song does.

And whoever brought up Jennifer Hudson and Beyonce go kill yourself pronto. This ain’t about Beyonce or Jennifer who I forgot even existed. Take that shit someplace else. This is about Ashanti retards. SMDH

she had to come with it vocally because she’s fighting for her Princess of Hip-Hop Soul crown since Keyshia Cole came in and snatched it away…but I think it’s an okay song.

looks like the cover for monica’s second album. LMAO

It’s alright. I like the piano in the song, that’s about it. She’s trying to hard vocally and no I’m not hating. I don’t think anything will top her first album, I still bump that in my car. Her weave look jacked up, she need to holler at Beyonce for some quality lacefronts, lol.

Of course Beyonce would have more fans than her when it comes to music. The woman has been doing it for ten years, but not as a solo act.

This is Jennifer’s first album so why the need to list Beyonce accomplishments that we all know already? Jennifer is just barely getting started. Did I get a rise out of u for telling the truth? Or was the question that I asked a little too much to handle? What will it mean when Jennifer wins a grammy?

And yes it Beyonce’s success has yet to eclipse Janet Jackson or Michael’s. Come back to earth. Come back…it’s ok the world will not end if u hear the truth. Jack Nicholson: YOU CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

really good !!! And i’m not a fan. Stop hating the girl can sing.

Yes my girl Ashanti is back again for all the stupid doubters out there that said her career is over haaaaaaaaaaaa she’s back.
And i love this song!!!

I have been visiting this site for over a year & never been urged to comment. Shanti did her thing on this one!

IM RESALLY IN LOVE ITS DEFFINITLY GONNA BE A HIT!!!THE PRINCESS IS BAK!!THANX CL.GO ASHANTI!!

ASHANTIS BAK THIS IZ A HUGE HIT!!!

No YOU can’t handle the truth and you right everybody already knows Beyonce’s long list of accomplishments and nobody has talked about Jennifer since the Oscar’s. LMAO Please Beyonce is talked about all day everyday. Where is Jennifer? Exactly

And sorry to bust your bubble but Jennifer said that Beyonce was one of her idols when she was on AI so even your God Jennifer admires Beyonce and was inspired to sing by her. That’s a fact she said that when she was on AI so it’s like Beyonce was the teacher and Jennifer was the student. LOL And Beyonce is very respected and like Monique said she is the Queen at what she does so that’s why Jennifer has stayed away from music. She knows Beyonce rules it for the black females. LMAO

And Janet’s last couple of albums flopped including last year when Beyonce outsold her and Janet lost many fans b/c of the Super Bowl and Michael LOVES Beyonce just like all the legends do even politician like Barack and Al sharpton love her so you’re wasting your time b/c the FACT still remains that Beyonce is an international icon who’s been consistently succesful for 10 years. Your OPINION does not matter. Beyonce will still be successful regardless of your opinion so why even bother? LMAO Nice try though.

The song is o.k. Ashanti is doing better.
Who cares about Jennifer?
What does this have to do with Beyonce?
Ya’ll really need to get a life for real. Bragging about celebrities who don’t give a damn about you. SMH

i swear I hate all you hating bitches if i had a gun and was to see any of yal in person I would blow all yall hating ass senseless brains out. and chop yall bodies up and throw them in the lake!!!
Y do yal hate on her who else can write songs like this please dont say the B word. Come on now stop hating on her that shit is dead.
Yall just mad cus yall broke and aint got shit else to do but blog and hate on artist that are not your favorite.
I guess yall rather listen to Tyra “Rush” or something else that dont live up to Ashanti’s status.

Ashanti, this is da shit. I think it shows alot of growth in her music and I belive she did declare she is here to stay with this joint right here. It kinda got that A.Keys type music feel to it and I love the piano in it.

uhhh..she cannot sing. she sings through her damn nose! i like the track better than the vocals. she sounds like brittany from the chippetes. i’d rather hear the instrumental. sorry ashanti

Sick of the Ashitty Stans

Speak the Truth!, and Add to the fact that DC is the highest selling girl group of all time, yes they sold more than TLC, SWV. THE Spice Girls, The Supremes and whoever else you wanna name. The only one who does the same amount as Bey or more is Alicia Keys, Mary, & Mariah right now, Janet did not sell more than Beyonce on her last album. And yes I’m talkin about Before Beyonce Re-released it she was at 4 Million worldwide and 2 million in the US and she was no.7 on the list of the highest sellin albums of 2006! They even said it on Power 105 this morning, Janet’ s last two albums didnt even sell 1 millon copies in the US. She needs this one to blow up!

omg! lawd save me from myself, this song is making me crazy! she killed this shit….all others better fall in line.

Apparantely my opinion do matter because all u do is list accomplishment of Beyonce’s instead of answering the question that I asked of u. Read what u just typed Monique say Beyonce is the queen. Since when did anyone hold Monique’s opinions as a historic fact? U r stupid. What does Michael loving Beyonce have to do with her accomplishment against Janet Jackson? Just because Janet did not sell as well as the other early albums does not warrant the fact that Janet Jackson is a failure. What Beyonce is doing has been done by Janet Jackson at 23. Until your God Beyonce reach a 80 million contract which Janet has accomplished then u can talk about who is the best entertainer. Until then u r only merely grasping at straws that don’t hold any weight. To me a failure is when somebody has to re-release an album in order to save face like your idol Beyonce. U and I both know that her album was garbage. That is why her father came with this scheme of repackaging an album that was not going to sell well as her first. And my dear stan is why u see Beyonce everywhere cuz it is the only way for to sell that garbage of an album if she is in your face 24/7.

So no my dear stan nice try at trying to come with a way to downplay legends before Beyonce. Cuz all it is in the end is hype. Your words are full of sh!t. Good night!

when did the music world become so scary…so much animosity between fans and such..anywho i really like this song..it screams growth from ashanty..

WHATS UP WITH ASHANTI’S HAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i dont like it…

As far as Beyonce I predict she will flop…anyway Dc is not the biggest selling girl group of all time WTF check Neilson Soundscan. What does her or Jennifer have to do with this topic though???

Stay on topic.

This song sounds like Mary J Be Without You.

A lot of people are tired of Beyonce so I’m sure she will flop this time too, you can’t compare Jennifer to Beyonce. Actresses are not in them,media as much as Singers why?? Because their too busy filming movies Jennifer Has Winged Creatures, Sex and the City and she just started filming the Secret Life of Bees …so THATS where Jennifer has been. As far as her music If I’m not mistaken it took Beyonce a while to come out with her first solo album…which was must better than that wack as Bday. So I’m glad Jennifer is taking her time and not being overexposed like some people.

As for Ashanti it’s cute much success. Beyonce will be outshined by a lot of people this time.

I like it!

Ya’ll are soo IGNORANT you know what that TRAINWRECK BRITNEY SPEARS HAS SOLD MORE RECORDS THAN BEYONCE AND SHE IS STILL MAKING HEADLINES FOR BEING A TRAINWRECK. BEYONCE WILL NEVER IN HER LIFE SELL 25 MILLION ON ONE ALBUM LIKE BRITNEY SPEARS> SO SIT YOUR ASSES DOWN. SELLING RECORDS AINT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD. UNTIL BEYONCE HAVE 5 HITS FROM ONE ALBUM AND SELL AS MUCH & BE AS INNOVATIVE AS JANET I SUGGEST YOU TAKE HER NAME OUT OF THIS>

@ Lydia
The task at hand is simple.
To talk about the song posted.
You like it? Or you don’t
Why or why not?
All that you posted up above there has nothing to do with shit.
Quit the irrelevant negative comments!

Beyonce hasn’t even reach the level of Usher much less Britney.

#263 Lydia Speaks the truth you didn’t call out all those Beyoncestans did you…..hmmm maybe becasue you r one of them

THANK YOU LYDIA!!! CASE CLOSED WE ALL KNOW WHO IS THE GREATEST POP STAR OF OUR GENERATION A TRAINWRECK NAMED BRITNEY SPEARS.. SO everyone else can shut it and get back to topic.

Hmmm this does sound like Be without you..I hope this is a hit for her.

How the hell do we go from talking about Ashanti’s new song, to Beyonce, to Jennifer Hudson, to Britney Spears?? Anyway, is it possible that maybe people could ACTUALLY like something from Ashanti? Some of y’all act like it’s a sin to appreciate stuff that she puts out. Yeah Beyonce is cool, Alicia is cool, but it’s not like they have some special license to release music, there’s room for EVERYBODY.

Anyway since Bee was brought up, personally i’m glad to see Ashanti back on the scene, she’s been gone for a minute, & i’m all Beyonce’d out for now, she’s been in the spotlight since 2003 non stop between her solo career & DC, it’s time for somebody else to have a lil shine. Beyonce is coming back once again this year which I think is a lil too soon, take a breather, reinvent yourself, she’s just going to burn herself out.

THAT WAS THEN, BUT THIS IS NOW!!!

THEN IN 1999-2000 BRITNEY DID SELL 30 MILLION WORLDWIDE ON HIT ME BABY ONE MORE TIME

BUT NOW THIS BITCH DIDNT EVEN SELL 1 MILLION ON BLACKOUT! 500K+

BEYONCE SOLD 2 MILLION IN THE US ALONE ON B-DAY IN ONLY 4 MONTHS BEFORE THE RE-RELEASE. 6 MILLION WORLD WIDE TOTAL DURING THE INDUSTRY’S SLUMP.

BEYONCE’S FIRST ALBUM SOLD 12 MILLION WORLD WIDE AND BRITNEY’S IN THE ZONE ONLY SOLD 10 MILLION AND SHE WAS DROPPED FROM PEPSI AND WHO WAS THE NEW SPOKESMAN? BEYONCE LOL!!!! AND DC SOLD OVER 80 MILLION UNITS WORLD WIDE!

^Yawn…I’m going to sleep. BTW Ashanti did a good job with this song. She is improving. Ok Bye.

KB you didn’t read the commenting rules that has NOTHING to do with the topic.

Lydia Lol that’s true Beyonce will never reach the status of Britney Spears she will never sell as much as Britny’s first two albums. I can’t stand Britney but its the truth. Shit Brintey is still making the news about being a trainwreck.

Beyonce stans can get mad but the turth hurts.

Ashanti’s song is cute

It doesn’t matter when it was. When Beyonce is in her 40s she won’t be selling as much either trust. The fact of the matter is that Britney Spears is the highest selling female artist of our generation. The most controversial female singer of our generation NOT Beyonce. Beyonce will never sell 25 million with one album because album sales are steadily declining. So it doesn’t matter when it happened the FACT of the matter is that it did and you can’t do anything about it. Even now no she’s not selling as much and neither is Beyonce. But Britney is making more headlines than Beyonce and Britney is the one that’s the trainwreck. Britney does something and the media don’t give a damn about Alicia, Beyonce, Jhud or anybody else because all they care about is Britney and Beyonce is not at that level sorry but it is the truth. As someone else said Britney is the GREATEST pop star of our generation Not Beyonce. It doesn’t matter if you like Britney or not. So I suggest you stop talking about Beyonce like she is God because a trainwreck chick who can’t sing is a lot more popular than her.

The ashanti song is tight I really like it. I hope this does well for her.

BEYONCE SOLD 2 MILLION IN THE US ALONE ON B-DAY IN ONLY 4 MONTHS BEFORE THE RE-RELEASE. 6 MILLION WORLD WIDE TOTAL DURING THE INDUSTRY’S SLUMP.

OH PLEASE Carrie Underwood, Mariah Carey Justin timberlake a lot of other artists sold a lot more than that during the industries slump Beyonce was flopping. Get you rhead out of her asss. The only thing that saved her was NE-yo and she had to rerrelease because she was flopping. Britney’;s First two album sales SHITS all over Beyonce ’s DIL.

And DC have never even reach 80 million WW yet I trust Neilson Soundscan and NOT some random person on the internet who is a stan.

I love Ashanti’s new song.

KB I think you are confusing Records and Albums I’m a fan of Dc and they have not sold over 8o million Albums WW. If you can count you would know that add up their albums sales and the number will be much shorter than 80. Now records and singles is something different entirely

Beyonce will flop harder than Rihanna…now back to shanti it’s aiight.

High School Musical was the highest selling cd of 2006 not Beyonce…lol just thought I’d throw that in. I have no issues with Bee, but her stans are sickening.

Nikki

I did not say albums, I said units! Units meaning every thing, albums, singles and now even DVD’s and ringtones!

Isaiah

I didnt say she was the highest sellling in 2006 but she was one of the highest selling artist in the US at 2 Million, I said she was No. 7 on the list, you could read it again if you like!

Funny that people assume Ashanti is irrelevant, yet this topic has reached almost 300 comments, & the majority of her topics reach high #’s of comments. Git it Shan. This song is on REPEAT, I

@236

In Jennifer’s defense, she didn’t just win an Oscar. She actually won every possible acting award for her performance (Golden Globe, Screen Actor’s Guild Award etc). The critics unanimously praised her role in Dreamgirls, making her the only sure thing at the Oscars. What other actress has had people standing and cheering for their performance at premieres and test screenings? For their very first role?

Besides, all the trophys and endorsements in the world won’t change the fact that Jennifer Hudson is both a better singer and actress than Beyonce.

Beyonce is undeniably hot at what she does, but man her fans are delusional!

I do like the Ashanti song, alot, but her vocals don’t quite bring it home. It would have sounded so much better if Beyonce, Monica or Brandy had sung it. I wish Ashanti luck though. She’s beautiful, and I want her to do well.

And yes Britney is the greatest pop star of our generation-trainwreck or not. Her new album is still on the charts, and she hasn’t done one damn interview. It would be selling even more if she did something- anything at all-to promote it. I’m a certified Brit stan, so I’m extremely biased on that topic though:-)

Beyonce is all that, but she doesn’t rule the universe.

DON’T WE SUPPOSE TO BE TALKING ABOUT ASHANTI’S NEW JOINT?

I LOVE IT!!!! Ashanti is back BITCHES!!! Great vocals!!!

I am so confused, this girl can continuously make flop album after flop album but Kelly Rowland gets no love!!!! Its clear that you have to be a redbone to make anything in this business.

This song is garbage! She can’t sing and she ain’t singing about shyt! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

And that aint from a hater, thats from someone w/ ears!

Not bad for her….still won’t buy the album

And again….Happy B’Day to me (the big 3-0) : )

@# 286 I just have to say Happy Birthday…..I will be taking that plunge in April the big 30………but anyway back to the topic

I love this song……Ashanti has always been an amazing songwriter (something that alot of the ladies of R&B cant touch) Vocally her voice has improved…..Im not going to bring up any other artist name cause this topic is not about them…..Ashanti do your thing ma………mucca

the song aight……..she may need to do something else in her career…..?????? and they coulda did a betta weave fareal!

I DON’T LIKE THEY S ONG SHE COULD OF DID BETTER BUT SHE CAN’T SING ANYWAY

Thats a pretty good song. She need to keep that one. Really like it.

HOT!!! Classic Ashanti. Hope this album works out for her; Can’t promise I’ll cop it but hopefully she has more nice singles

I like it. Sonds a little “Rain on me” like. It also sounds unfinised. I loooooooooooooooove Ashanti though. I think she needs something more catchy as her first single though. It’s ok. 3/5 stars.

very pretty girl, but she can’t sing….her songs are ok though………I feel her get that money best way you can ….. she can’t make it because as usual all female celebs are compared to Beyonce if you are not her you can’t make it which is so not true I mean you can’t blame her blame the people they are always comparing when in my opinion Bee is talented, but she is very overrated

A a lover of all kind of music.It’s not that good, but people snap to anything these days.It’s not like I expected more from her so, this will do.

THAT LACEFRONT IS A HOT MESS BUT I LOVE ASHANTI

OMG HOTNESS!

I love this song
I’m a big fan of shany I wish she can stop holding this album put the album out already girl

Good song. Haven’t heard from her in a awhile.

OMG! somebody said it early yesterday, 300 post…. almost there… i guess if she reads CL (which i think she does because it’s one of the most respected Blogs- REALTALK-Angel and the gang are not so opinionated, they seem objective for the most part, not haters like other Blogs)

but if Ashanti is looking at this site, she must be proud because people actually care enough to talk about it.. and you know that old saying…..

YOU GO GURL.!!!!!
