  2. sha

    she did good sounds just like the radio lol cant wait for the album go shani!!

  3. Horse.head.Nebula

    She must have been taking singing lessons.. she sounds better.

  4. JSILV84

    Wow, I remember seeing her perform live back in ’02 and it was a wreck! Chick has definitely stepped her live vocal game up..cute look for her too!

  5. OMON IMO

    Pretty and you can tell she got a good voice too live. I can’t seem to understand why people do not like her. Oh well, y’all just haters right, right?

  6. Tamika

    Ashanti sounds good. This is a big improvement and she is singing with more conviction. Sometimes you have to go through some times to bring the vibe out, I guess.

  7. BoiScout

    The event was cool, at least until somebody got shot there…smh

  8. Tamika

    Sorry. I meant that sometimes you have to go through some drama to bring the vibe out. I’m happy for Ashanti and I’m looking forward to her album.

  9. Belle Afrique

    Ashanti is one of those people can sing but her voice just never sounds nice especially live… I dunno why she sounds like she’s straining or shouting it’s like she’s always tring to sing in the wrong key like two whole octaves…

    Nice ‘fit though

  10. archera

    Wow Ashanti has really developed as a performer and a singer. She doesn’t look and sound so lost when she sings anymore. She is so convincing. Go Ashanti! She looks beautiful too!

  11. Aries

    She looks really nice in these pics.

  12. LBT

    Ashanti cannot sing she never has been able to and she never will. The only reason she ever had a deal with a record label is cause she a pretty girl who fucked and sucked to top.

    When will she dissappear permantly? she like a nasty rash that keeps coming back with these mediocre songs.

  13. joecyln

    The thing I never liked about her voice was the fact that it sounded like it hurt and she was straining her throat…i dont know it just sounds that way. The notes she was aiming for wasnt hittin it, but it seems like she has had practice

  14. Perez

    Wow, that was a good performance.

  15. cee-mee

    I am loving that outfit!!!

  16. Destiny

    YES. WE ALL KNOW THAT ASHANTI IS NOT A GOOD SINGER, BUT LADIES AND GENTS GIVE A SISTA A BREAK. Ashanti is very much aware of this trust me she needs 2 Retire.

  17. sittingprettyinchitown

    Ashanti sounds good. I like her. I hope her album is successful. At least she writes better meaningful and thought provoking songs than Beyonce’s old tired azz lyrics such as “I don’t think you ready for this jelly..or pat your weave..” but I am not here to hate on B because she is doing her thing. But much success to Ashanti…

  18. joecyln

    nev mind, her voice is just annoying to me. Her speaking voice, singing voice, laugh…everything, sounds so forced

  19. kiwi2g4

    I was there..and the event overrall on a scale of 1-10…was an 7…(the clothes were whack, and there was no flow to the show), lol….. but back to topic at hand…Ashanti did really good …in my opinion she is not an “AWSOME” singer, but on that night live I was impressed. ……….I’m ashame to say this, but I might buy the album, the last 2 were good, she is not the best singer, but when the production,writing, lyrics, and flow of an album are on point it makes for a good listen.

  20. Gwen

    Go Ashanti! Great Job!

  21. tee tee

    wish i had them legs

  22. Honey Girl

    I’am shocked that was actually good, and she looks good! I seen 106 and Park when Nelly was on there, he was really holding it down for her, I like the fact they are at least honest about their relatinship with their fans, they both seem like good people despite all the hate, I hope she does make a comeback so the haters can shut up, but then again they never do!

  23. Dame

    Get it Ashanti she sounds great and that is my song.

  24. kiwi2g4

    i just listen to this vid….damn she did better then I thought….I likes :)

  25. stacy h.

    She is so pretty. she should consider modeling or stick to acting. the singing game is not working out for her

  26. Ashanti looks pretty….BUT THAT’S ABOUT IT LOL! If this is what is called real singing today….Only God knows what’s in store 10yrs. from now!

    I can’t wait for Robin Thicke’s new album and Jennifer Hudson’s debut album to hit the scene in these upcoming months….I’m so tired of these wack ass R&B chicks with no talent (all they do is dance)!

  27. This is my chick and im not sayin this because im a fan but because love music he chick has improve a great deal and the performance was good haters there even said “DAMN THE BITCH CAN SING” so ppl let it go the chick has sold over 15millions recoreds world wide give it up she has writting skills and the vocals are improving trenmedously so let it go and either roll with it or let her be but the gurl has talent and she has stepped her game up…..

  28. Hellno

    Ashanti keep doing you, don’t listen to these haters. I actually like your music.

  29. My Comment

    She sounds pretty good. But doesnt this performance seem a little amateur talent show-ish?

  30. JUJU

    Ashanti cool she not that bad as ppl tryna say yes she not the best singer but she is not that bad

  31. DAdeCOunty Cutie

    THats a cute dress also.

  32. Hellno

    @ my comment

    she was actually at a fashion show/ club environment, so I think she did pretty good.

  33. DA BUL HOVA

    ALL YALL FUCKIN HATERS GET OFF ASHANTI DICK.SHE STEPPED HER GAME UP 100.AND SHE BAD AS SHIT!FUCK YALL HATERS

  34. jada

    she looks good n she did a good job work bitch

  35. Juicy SuperStar

    I have always thought she could sing… She sounds good. I saw her sing live in DC and she sounded good. I like her CDs too so I cant wait for this one to come out. Her outfit is really cute…

  36. KNOCKKEY

    TEAM ASHANTI AND CIARA LADIES THIS IS YOUR YEAR

  37. So Good

    I think she got tape or a burn mark on her thigh. LOL @ me looking so hard. But anyway love the dress and shoes.

    I think she did good but the only thing that annoyed me was when she tried to hyped of the crowd in between the song. She didn’t need to do that with a passionate song like this. She should of just stand there professionally and sing her little heart out. That way the crowd would hear and understand the lyric better and feel the song. I think she need to practice better stage presense.

  38. KING Ron

    first of i want to say to the haters when are u going to stop? are u ever? u know u like the song and the performance…this was great..she has stepped up her game (every female artist does that they have to step up their game to do better than what they did before)..so therfore yall need to stop hating..the performance overall for me on a scale of 1-10 is a 9.5..because she handle it …she sound sooo good.. her outfit is amazing…so please dont hate…congradulate….does it hurt for u to just say “wow she did good”…….her album comes out JUNE 3rd for those who dont know…titled “the declaration”.cant wait..she expected to sell over 500,000 records first week………..

  39. Fancy

    Ashanti looks good and those legs are to die for!!

  40. Giggles loves Mariahs new album

    I think everyone on CL just jumps on the Hateration band wagon, I sing and I do believe Ashanti has a good voice, she has really improved over the years.

    Technically speaking she has more of a vocal range than Alicia keys, Im not hating its true. But people think Alicia can sang, its all about singing in the range that is comfortable for that particular person and Ashanti is learning to do that so good for her.

  41. Lihara

    She has def took some singing lessons and she sounds so MUCH better!!

  42. rnblover

    Looking and sounding good Shani!!

    You got to love her personality too..

    Team Ashanti all the way!

  43. Veus

    Somebody’s been taking voice lessons!!!!!!
    Big ups to Shanti on the Upgrade. Do Ya thing!!!

  44. Laila

    I saw Ashanti’s dress at Macy’s while out shopping yesterday. It was $59 or sth like that. It’s cute on her.

  45. I don’t know if Ashanti can sing are not……….sh!t all I can concentrate on is those
    big pretty ass legs…………Damn.! :-)

  46. UM...I GUESS

    i really really reallyyy dont care too much for ashanti as an artist (never have) but i must admit that that was a good performance. best ive ever seen her. and that outfit is the business…kudos

  47. kadian

    people SOUNDED is not a word

  48. Shay

    I love Ashanti, and you can tell that she has grown as an artist. I can’t wait for the album, because even though she isn’t the best vocalist, you can always count on her to deliver a BANGIN album.

  49. Mtwbabyface

    People can say what they want about Ashanti, but she is doing her thing and she sounds and looks great. Its so funny that people was all in her ass when she first came out and sold over 500,000 copies of her debut cd in its first week, which no other solo female artist (not even Beyonce) had ever done, and it gained her a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records. But whatever, if you dont like her then dont listen, but STOP HATIN on a sista that doin her thing.

  50. 2short

    @ 49. You’re a dumbass. “Sounded” is a word, in fact it’s a damn verb.

  51. Adrian Clyde

    Woooow… I remember when she first came out, she was like the WORST live singer ever… But man, watching this is like watching an entirely different woman. She was incredible. She sounded just like the record, and sung with so much emotion and (like others have mentioned) convinction.

    If she keeps this up, I will definitely buy her album. Say whatever you want about the old Ashanti, but this one definitely has talent. She had a rough start…but give her some credit. She’s grown a lot, man.

  52. MeMySeLf&_I

    @# 42 I’ve been saying this like forever…glad someone else agrees. Now I love Alicia but her voice has no type of range, she’s a good singer though.

    But back to Ashanti…I loved the performance, I always thought she had a good voice, but now she has more control over it. I think she is going to have a great album….one thing people can’t hate on is the girl can write a song. Not too many
    R&B chicks can actually say that…..I mean songs that have some type of meaning.
    can’t wait for the album

  53. Taji

    She sounds great and look great.

  54. susan

    this was an amazing performance, haters need to fall back i cant wait for the declaration when it comes out june 10

  55. dctriigyal

    SHE SOUNDS JUST LIKE HER VIDEO SO THAT’S WAZ UP

  56. jj33

    Ashant didwrite this song and she has improved on performing and singing so i’m not going to hate so GO ASHANTI!!!!! I LUV YOUR STYLE AND CANT WAIT FOR YOUR NEW ALBUM

  57. ND

    GO SHANTI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  58. a.k.a. new yorker

    i give her credit for improving. good job BUT she needs to continue w/that improvement b/c she sounds like she’s screaming/forcing the notes out in some parts. in all honesty, a lot of ppl (if they had a vocal coach) could sing like this so ‘m not amazed or anything.
