Why do you care so much about her music that don’t have nothing to do with you. She still got more money than you will ever have and everyone else on this site. So don’t worried about her music atleast she got music out.
Ashanti is a beauiful chick so stop haing.

VERY pretty.
She looks adorable in that white dress & her shoes are HAWT! (she just needs a lil lotion on that pinky toe).
That blazer makes her look like she’s going to the shebert ice cream bible revival.

I love Ashanti. Go mama! She is so pretty, People cannot expect her music to sell after a damn near 5 year hiatus with little or no promotion except after the album released.. come on.. But its not about sells anymore.. cause she’s a writer and everything..

Ashanti is everywhere because she is promoting her album. The blazer was given to her because it was chilly and she doesn’t have on sleeves. I love it. I now see Ashanti in a different light. I am so glad she got away from Murder Inc. And she is still able to get out there. That’s something ALOT of artist are unable to do. You go Ashanti and Mommarazzi. And for the ones saying her albums aren’t selling, if she keeps her work ethics up, she will sale. She gets points alone for promoting herself the way she is.

Her shoes are the bizness!
She looks really cute.
22.
Why?
Tuesday, July 22, 2008 /
aaaaaaaw she is so goofy! lol.. looks very pretty… it appears it was cold in the place and a nice gentleman wearing a peach blazer let her borrow it. It doesn’t seem like it was part of Shani’s fashion statement…. She certainly is getting her promo in for this cd…. alright now!!
Better to have your mama by your side because you know mama has your back but other management and friends you would have to wonder about…. Shanti has been thru a lot to get to this point her hiatus wasn’t by choice her mama is there for protection so you will be seeing a lot of her making sure her daughter doesn’t get hurt and led astray!! Go mama Douglas protect your baby!

1. Why are y’all worreid about her album and what’s it’s selling, when you’re not a fan of hers to begin with? And y’all always got something negative to say about her. So why do you care what her album sold or how it sounds. You’re not buying it. Don’t worry about it. It’s pretty stupid to ask, about something or somebody you say you don’t care about or hate.
2. The Jacket was not part of her outfit. It was given to her because it was cold, and it was part of the cerimoney there. Duh…….are y’all that dumb and hateful?
3. This was a hometown event (she’s from Long Island), hence her appearance with the families and the Ambassador/Council man. How is that bad for her career? When she’s giving back to her own. Again, duh are y’all that much against the chick? There’s nothing wrong with this event, and there’s nothing wrong with her showing up for it.
4. There’s nothing wrong with her outfit. She looks quite nice in it.
5. This is not 2002 anymore. And she doesn’t say or do aww baby or none of that. Find a new diss people. The girl grew into a woman, and her new album relfects it. Don’t start complaining or bringing up Good Good. That’s the only song she’s having cute fun with. The rest of her album is pretty serious, ands he has some good songs on it. I may not be a mega fan, but I certainly can give her credit where it’s due, for the improvements, since leaving the Inc.

Oh, and call her Ashanti. It won’t kill y’all to call her by her name. There’s no need to call her Ashitty or any other disrespectful name in the book. Call that poor girl everything but her birth name. It’s even more of a shame, if you’re grown women acting like this. Especially with all the stuff I see on these blogs. Again, do you people even hear yourselves sometime? And how bad you sound.

Joja86, that’s true about the fans. But it’s also the extreme on the other end for Ashanti as well. People go overboard with their dislike toward her too. It’s like best of both extremes LOL. Either way, she looks really nice, and I like her new CD to boot.

I used to hate Ashanti but now all my hate has gone into RihAlien soooo….Ashanti looks cute, love that hair on her.
@45..
You ain’t lying!! Thats why I hated the Bitch, 1. She was wannabe Beyonce but 2. she had sexy ass Nelly.(WHERE MY PARTY PPL @)

@ 46, Everybody is a wannabe Beyonce. Even though I don’t see how. Being that Beyonce also is a wannabe. What I mean by that is, yeah she might be the most accepted and popular out of all the girls, but she copies and takes infleunces from others before her all the same. On top of that, she seems somewhat of a glory hog. That’s not a diss to Bee, just and observation. Anyway, all these girls, including Ashanti are different. In their own way. On top of that, there can be more than one successful female. Everything doesn’t have to be a knock down drag out comparison. It’s a shame we pit our own artist against each other all the time. Even though they aren’t fighting. There’s room for everybody.

@47,
Okay, stop trying to start things, it was a little comment. And I do believe that Ashanti “WAS” a HUGE biter off of Beyonce. But I’m leaving it as that. Beyonce may have copied other artist but she made it into her Beyonce style thats why she is that famous. If she just straight out copied she wouldn’t be where she is. I’m just saying. So let’s leave there. Friends?? JPJP, I just hope no one took that to heart..

Congrats Ashanti.Glad to see she’s giving back and she looks nice in these photos. I’m more appreciative of older music due to much of the garbage that’s being put out nowadays so while I appreciate some of the songs on her album that I’ve sampled cause of lyrics, her voice is not good for my ears to listen to so I couldn’t buy it. I like real voices that can blow.

I just want to say. I don’t get what’s so bad about Ashanti at all. Really, what’s so bad about her voice? What’s so fake about her? What’s so bad about this woman at all? I understand not being a fan of certain types of artist. But people just go hard on her for nothing.
Just because she’s not a power house singer, doesn’t mean she can’t sing or sounds bad. She never came in the game claiming to be the best singer, vocalist, artist anyway. She said it countless times herself. Am I Aretha, am I this, am I that? No, I just do my thing in my own lane. She’s not here to be the greats this or the best that. She’s just here to do what she does. I don’t see no harm in that.
Just because you have a strong, power house, church type voice. Doesn’t make you a great singer either. It certainly doesn’t mean you can’t be a wack artist yourself, just because you have a voice. Also, what is a real singer? Last time I checked, there was no such thing as a real singer. Just like there’s no such thing as real Hip Hop. Either you like it, or you don’t. If you don’t like certiain artist, ignore them, and listen to what you do like.
Also, there’s no middle ground anymore. You’re either one extreme or the other. Everything can co-exist, it doesn’t have to be a fight. If you’re not a fan, well ignore her. Stop looking for something that isn’t going to change your mind anyway. You want your real singers. Well, go look and listen to them and support them. It’s obvious you guys don’t support these talent vocalist you speak so highly of. Otherwise, they’d be sellling a ton of records right now.
Again, what did Ashanti do to y’all so bad? That’s right, she didn’t do anything to y’al. All she did was pick up a microphone. There was no harm in that.She dind’t hurt y’all personally, she didn’t ruin your life. So why all the negative darts toward her? You can’t dislike somebody you don’t know to begin with. Either way, music is about being diverse. I realize they have different artist here for different reasons. So I don’t see nothing wrong with what she’s doing.

@ Kia Carter, calm down. No need to go on the defensive and offensive right off the bat. I wasn’t starting anything. I was stating my opinion, just as you and everybody else on this blog has done. I am allowd to do that. You had yours I had mine. Cool. Don’t worry, I’m not here to cut your head off and curse you out. Like I said already, all of these girls are different in their own way. Does it have to be a knock down drag out comparison fest. No, there is room for everybody.

Ashanti looked very nice, she seems to be happy where she’s at as a person. Remembering when she first came out it’s obvious that she matured from a young lady to a women. Her CD is good, there are a couple songs on there that I like, hopefully she will continue doing what she’s doing, you get it girl!!
