♫ HOT OR NOT: ASHANTI’S NEW SINGLE

Check out this 90 second snippet of Ashanti’s second single, “Body On Me,” featuring former boyfriend Nelly and producer/singer/songwriter, Akon of Konvict Music. This second single comes from Ashanti’s fourth studio album, The Declaration, which is slated to hit stores on the 3rd of June.

Even though it’s just a 90 second teaser for the fans, I had to see what the CL’ers thought of her next effort, considering how well her first single “The Way That I Love You” is being received on radio and video countdowns. It took a minute for Ashanti to get it together, releasing a few buzz singles, but I think they’re finally making some good decisions. So what do you think?

    THAT SONG SUCKKKKKKS!!!!!

  26. ICU2

    Body on me, loving that body on me.

    I’m getting this album and f what the haters got to say, this will definitely get spins on the radio.

  27. Phil-Up

    The song is alright but Ashanti has lost that crossover appeal that you need to sell a lot of records. I’m not even going to lie, I’ll burn her album from somebody else…but I wouldn’t buy it…

  28. jm

    FORMER??? Please tell me that was a typo!! This can’t be!!?!?!?

  29. Catt

    I am surely buying dis album…. lovin that body on me… I love this feakin snippet LOL

  30. Miss Mikelah

    It has a nice summer time feel, I can get wit it.

  31. sxcighanamamii

    Former BOYFRIEND?! im late!! what happened to them?!

  32. Glamour Kid

    Ok don’t get me wrong I am a huge Ashanti stan but this shit is just not the business. It’s hot garbage and in no way shape or form should be a single on anyone’s album. She sounds like Cassie on this record and Akon annoying ass makes me sick.

  33. king ron

    this song is POPPIN…it would be a perfect summer banger………..everyone will be singing to this i cant wait to the album come out June 3rd……….all the verses are hott especially Ashanti verse…POPPIN…haters FALL BACK

  34. Former boyfriend? They seemed pretty much together when I saw those pics of them last week.

    And when Nelly was on 106, he spoke highly of her.

    Anyways, I like the song.

  35. whyaskwhy

    Haters “Just Stop It” the song is very much on point and yes I’m a true stan and i have to give it to the three great colabo 4-sho. Just listen and stop the hating. Go Support The Album
    The Declaration
    June 3, 2008
    She’s BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAck HatTTTTTers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  36. jessielynn

    She looks beautiful. I saw her “W e a l t h yR o m a n c e.c o m” last week. It is said she is daating young billlionaire on that site.

  37. algie

    akon is so wack and i didn’t know ashanti and nelly broke up

  38. lil' lady 07

    The song is pretty hot…Ashanti went hard with this single and the way that i love u, considering the fact that Gotti is not in the picture…And about her and nelly, I don’t think they broke up. There are pics of her and nelly together at a private dinner from last week. I think that since there have not been many pics of them together lately people think that they are not together put they are just a private couple.

  39. Steph

    This song is hot! Ashanti is brining the heat…first “The Way That I Love You” and now “Body On Me”? I’m definitely getting her cd.

  40. JJ

    I’ll admit. I was never really a fan of Ashanti’s but damn I can’t even front. From the 3 or 4 songs I’ve heard I’m anticipating to buy this cd. Hopefully the songs on there are as good…she might just have a new fan.

  41. Focused1

    This just sounds alright to me. It might grow on me. The snippet is to short for me to really decide if I really like it or not.

  42. enough said

    I like conserdering I cant stand Akon
    Go head Ashanti cant wait to buy this album all the other snippets I heard have been hot

    The Declaration
    JUNE 3rd

  43. I read something the other day saying that they’d split up and were just good friends now. I’ll find what site it was on and come back and post the link. my apologies if that’s just a rumor. blogs don’t always tell the truth!

  44. Have Not thought of a New User Name

    The song is ok

    She should have gotten someone besides Akon to sing his part of the hook. I could have did without Nelly to. It’s radio friendly so it will get spins on radio and in the clubs.

  45. Andre

    Dammnnn…i think ashanti’s gon have a good year because she came with the way that i love you and now she’s here again with Body On Me n from the sounds of it this is gon be a hot cd…deff gon cop dat shit

  46. Honey Girl

    They’re still together, they were just photographed together at the MTV upfront having dinner…all the other sites have the pics!

  47. Marcinis

    Nelly and Ashanti are still together, people. This is her second single, and they’ll be filming the video within the next couple weeks. Anyway, this song is hot. Definitely a summer jam, and very radio friendly. Her voice sounds really sweet harmonizing with Akon’s, and the chemistry between them vocally sounds natural. I can’t wait until JUNE 3RD to buy THE DECLARATION. It’s going to be monumental!

  48. peppychick

    Akon’s voice kinda distracted me at first, but after getting past that the song is okay.

  49. THE PRINCESS CC

    I like it overall a mellow hit, i wish her much success!

  50. Lala .

    A lot of people have done versions of this song already as SO LIL FIZZ OF B2K .

    his version is better then hers.

  51. ashley

    She sounds so amazing on this song. There are some jealous haters who give negative comment because Ashanti seems to be doing a fantastic job with the new album and haters can’t get over the fact that the singer can actually blow.

  52. crunkpoet

    i dont like the beat..sounds like something akon produced..YUCK…and he makes the song annoying as hell…ashanti u gotta come better than this……but yeah its radio friendly whatever the hell that is….lmao!

  53. Pansy

    Uuuh..I love it…
    She sound amazing in this song
    Really good!

  54. youneverknow

    Hahaha, great feedback! Summer joint of ’08! More hotness coming soon! :)

  55. Wth…former?!

    Anyway I like this song, it has a nice summer feel to it…Akon used to annoy me especially when he was featured on everyyy song out but his voice works here, lol; might have to cop the album :)

  56. TheDeclaration

    I Love It, The Single Is Bangin’ A Nice Summer Jam Fo’ Ashanti, And Yall Kno Yall Gone ALL Be Jamin’ It… So Don’t Front!… It’s Bananas!

  57. unknown
