give me a break the song is cute. and coming from a married women this video is HOT. I dont care what I do all day but when my husband comes home the house is clean dinner is being prepared and yes the bedroom is off the hook. I am an educated women with a degree and I know how to keep my man happy! That good good is everything up to and including the bedroom. The ones who are hating are probably those natural afro wearing, wedge heels, neutral color loving with no make up ladies that feel independence is summed up in one word Dildo. (actin hard and snuggling up with a pillow and a low battery dildo) Because you aint getting none step back and take a look at yourself.

I found it offensive and was surprised that very few others did as well. It’s not “just a video” when you’re a child and you take everything you see and hear to heart. It’s not the worst video …but it isn’t much better than any of the worst out there. Women have so much more to offer than the characters that are so often being portrayed in these videos.

I think the video is very cute and funny. Ashanti seems down to earth. She just want to show the humorous side of hear since parents were complaining about her last video. I feel sorry for her. I don’t know what people expect from her. Ashanti has had so much hate in the last couple of years. First people stated that she can’t sing. After looking at some live performances from other female artists, none of them have very strong voices but a few. And I mean a few (BET AWARDS). The last performance she did (TRL) sounded better than some of the performance on BET AWARDS SHow. Secondly, you all are talking about Ashanti and Nelly are trying to hard. There are some couples who try too hard and are too serious. You can’t even tell if they are real or have real feelings because they don’t acting like nornal everyday people like Ashanti and Nelly. They have made numerous video together. I guess the fans have made them that way. To be honest, she has made some pretty good songs over the past couple years. I guess people just don’t want to give her a chance. She has always been the underdog in the game,but people still want to watch her and see he next move (positively or negatively). I admire her for being so strong and keeping her hand up through all of the turmoil these years.

BY ANY MEANS AM I A FAN OF “HOME GIRL”/ASHANTI. BUT I CAN’T HATE ON THIS SONG OR THE FIRST SINGLE FROM THIS ALBUM.
HOWEVER I DID ENJOY SEEING NELLY, I DO WILL ADMIT SHE HAS GOOD TASTE IN MEN,BECAUSE I LOVE NELLY,AS WELL.
I DID ENJOY THE VIDEO,BECAUSE OF IT’S CUTE,SLIGHTLY ANIMATED THEME (meaning=liveliness)HAVING LIFE. I LOVE THE TREATMENT/THEME OF THE VIDEO-the “Leave To Beaver and Donna Reed” type housewife.
no hate here! *BUT I DON”T CARE FOR HER AS A PERSON-LOL! I couldn’t help myself.

Ashanti looks like a fuckin FOOL at the end of the day…considering that EVERYONE knows that Nelly is cheating on her (trust me on that). And I’m quite sure she knows it. Like a typical hoodrat thinkin, “I know he cheats, but I got that “good good” so thats why he keeps coming back”. Bitch please…
Whats next, a video and song by Tiny talking bout being an Independent Woman??
Seems that todays women only care bout havin a man at home, ANY kind of man. Instead of taking the time to look for a GOOD man according to your own standards and tryin to get your shit together first, you just grab and keep whatever you can find for validation.

@152…Please stop generalizing about analytical, thinking women as if every one of us is unattractive or single, I am neither. Besides, generalizing about folks isn’t an educated thing to do. I digress and I’m confused, what exactly is wrong with not wearing make-up or having natural hair? My guess is nothing. Pick up a book by Assata Shakur, Angela Davis, even Sista Souljah’s autobiography may help you. Or google Dr. Susan Rice, check out J’ada Pinkett, even Alicia keys. All are strong women with varying opinions and set various examples of how women can act to gain respect and love. Popping behinds and bragging about what you do in the bedroom is not what’s up! Peace.

148, that’s right, is it too wrong to brag? I had my husband on lock before we got married, even if I’m modest, I know I hit him with that one two combo. And that’s right HUSBAND, and it’s not about sex. If he is approached by every temptation thrown at him, but he faithfully brings himself home, then it IS you and there is no problem being proud of that. And granted some people’s situations are different. If her man cheated, and I stress HER, and they decided they can get over that, then it commendable. I have known may couples who go through that, but we are so quick to say he/she is a fool. You don’t know those people or they’re relationship, so I’m not going to knock her.
I honestly believe she was just making a song, it’s not necessarily her personal testimony until she claims it, then we can go from there, LOL!

I agree with people. People just be hatting on her because others hate on her. This bitch write her own songs, always have a hot album, pretty, and got a fine man. If somebody else did this same song and video we would not have these problems. Anyways Ashanti keep getting money ( in the many ways that you do) and keep your man and fuck the haters. Yall don’t even give Keyshia Cole nonsinging ass this much heat and she can not sing nor does she look better than Ashanti, and even Rihanna nonsinging ass. Lets not bring Nelly into this topic because he has sold damn near every artist there is.

@Lisa
What do you think everybody is doing to Ashanti? That’s right, their generalizing. Every kind of folk up in here, is generalzing, critisizng, bashing, her look, her music, her presonality, her personal relationship with Nelly. With that being said, you can’t generalize her, simply because of her “entertainment” then turn around and say, don’t generalize me or us as women. How do you think Ashanti feels? Her hate, ridicule, and break down is very public. Which makes it much worse. You guys are in the privacy of your own hme, and can hide behind your computer screens (hint hint). She can’t.
People will find any reason, just to say something negative about that woman. I’m not saying you particularly. I’m just speaking in general. Look at most of the comments on these blogs and websites. Allow me to give some simple examples.
First it was, she can’t sing.
Then it became she’s a hoe just to get a deal (which I don’t see).
After that, it became her laugh and personality is annoying (which it isn’t).
Following that was, she’s wack, she’s Ashitty, and every other disrespectful and disgusting name in the book.
Now, it’s her video is too sexual, her song is too sexual, she’s a hood rat, she set women back a million years with this, Nelly cheats on her, she’s dumb, Good Good ain’t going to keep no man. Her video is trash. Her career is over, she flopped.
Geez, that’s a lot of hate and resentment, and definately generalizing. After that long list I just typed, don’t you think the girl deserves a break? The ironic thing about it is, the next chick can come along and do the same exact thing. But the difference would be, people would gladly embrace her for it. Sing her praises. But continue to single out and take part in tearing down Ashanti, all because she isn’t considered “well-liked” by the “compuster screen bandits.”

Got dam people! This is just a video. This is not her real life. If Beyonce and JZ, Chris Brown and Rihanna(no singing ass),or any other celebrates that are dating did this video,you all would have said oh that is so cute. Just because it was Ashanti, you all want to hate. I agree with one of the other blogger, what about Freakum Dress and Sugar Mama.?
The song and video are cute. It reminds me of the Stepford Wife Movie. It was made to be silly. It doesn’t remind of Mariah Carey video. Her cd was overrated and whack to me!! Ashanti’s cd is very good. Take your dislikes about her out of the equation and just listen to hear music. The girl can write better than any female artist out there. If you all can listen to Rihanna’s songs,then dam Ashanti’s voice can not be that annoying. Can’t wait to the video Body on Me. You all definitely going to hate because she and Nelly are in that one. Watch all of their haters will be looking at the video before their fans.

I would like to know how old most of these people are who are posting because some of these comments seem really childish. If you don’t like the song or video thats fine but to say negative things about Ashanti is not called for. We can all agree to disagree but don’t knock someone for doing what they love to do just because you’re not feeling it. We can’t please everybody and evidently enough people like or love her work because she is still here. This comment goes for any and everyone out there trying to do their best and succeed in life. Don’t let the negative comments break you.

When will you all stop putting down your own race. Why can’t we give credit where credit is due. Avril Lavigne can’t sing. Britney can’t sing. But you rarely see any of the white folks putting them down and dogging them like we black folks do to each other on these damn blogs. Please try to give positive feedback. Go Ashanti and Nelly!!! I’m not rich either but I won’ t put her down because she is.

Wow
This is crazy, but it is good that we are seeing different points of view.
Honestly I don’t think the video is that deep and like I said there are way worst videos.
but if you want to get deep about it you can also say that she just was not talking about sex if you look at the video she is cooking and cleaning and being there for her man when he gets home and thoose are very good qualities in a relationship. So it could be something good for young girls and young guys to see. You can’t dwell so much on the videos but use it to talk and teach.
And I agree fully with Call me Mrs Jones, it is the parents responsibility to teach the child and although every child does not have that that is where the mentors(gmisstata) like you and I (I mentor at my moms school in b-more) come into play.
Thats my 2 cents, you can keep the change!

The video was very well done! It was shot well, super cute and matched the song perfectly. Yes, it is taking on stereotypes of women from the 50’s but it is doing so in a tongue-in-cheek way that is very appealing.
This is a good single and video so Ashanti, and i just love the song hah! And I’m not even really a fan. Does anyone know who directed this vid?

Get over it…Its a fucking VIDEO…The children shouldn’t watch B.E.T in the first place because its a HORRIBLE network OWNED by CBS…
Oh and LMFAOOO @ The Beyonce coments Lets NOT forget Ashanti writes ALL of HER SONGS….She doesn’t need anyone to write for her…AND
This song is WAYYY different from a Bee song…This is about her having That BOMB STUFF…Its so good SHE know her man isn’t leaving…Bee never had a song WRITTEN for her like this lmfaoo You black people crack me up…Maybe she should go straight POP…it seems like the white people support better SMFHID…

ashanti was here before beyonce(i think), why is beyonce the standard, i will give her her props she can sing , not great and she can perform , but ain”t nobody gotta be no beyonce and to me looks like people would low self esteem would think this, to think that everybody wants to be beyonce it ’s like yall forgot you was bumping them ashanti hits , she took a break and now when she comes back she gotta be acting like beyonce, people beyonce is not the beginning and ending and i feel for beyonce she has to be tired trying to live up to all the greatness and pressure from her fans.

Jason PREACH! I mean seriously it’s JUST a video. And it’s not like Ashanti woke up and said let me degrade women. THE DIRECTOR, who by the way is a FEMALE, came up with the concept and it worked with the song. Lmao Ashanti doesn’t even do anything sleezy or revealing in the video so wth? PLEASE let this BE ANY other female and the shit would of gotten praised. Lil Wayne has a video with HALF NAKED ass girls in “Lollipop”. The song/video went straight to #1 on 106 & Park, TRL and went straight to the top of the billboard charts. Now that’s a perfect example of degrading women. Every GIRL including the ones who made a comment on here, was singing that song. Yung Berg made RACIST comments about dark skinned women, yet his video is still being played on BET and is still on 106’s countdown. So PLEASE stop the hypocrisy. Give the women a break. If you don’t like her or her music that’s fine, but to make ignorant ass comments and then continue on and on about it, is old and it’s sad. Instead of sticking behind our black women or our race in general, we sit there and criticize them for every little thing and then wonder why we can’t get ahead in society today.
Ashanti’s video was MEANT to be fun and that’s what exactly it was. FUN. And for all the people who are claiming this is degrading, maybe we need to go back into history and go to time periods such as the 50s and 60s where being a housewife, cleaning, cooking and holding down the household was accepted, and that was brought to light in this video and made fun of GET OVER IT.
Lol at why is this chick famous. Check her accomplishments and that’s why she’s famous cuz people like yourself who decided to keep this topic relevant and can’t seem to keep her name out their thoughts.
The Declaration is in stores now.
