Ashanti graced the world with
Chapter II
f
N
These shiny thighs prancing around all alone on that big ass stage.
Female R&B really was booking
Mon one week @#1
Then Bey stormed through for the top spot
Then Ashanti the following week
ACK
I forgot she did Vh1's Divas Live in 2003 too. The way she used to stay book.

Of the girls who released that summer, she released the weakest. The singles were definitely fire, but the project itself was filler.
And Ashanti always unfortunately always gives high school talent show when it comes to her performances. Looking back, she was really underwhelming.

She?s a mess but this just brought back memories of that show on VH1 where that fat black girl blew out the speakers. Lemme find it.

ive never heard that album outside of the single :dead: what was the subject matter?
I bet people were turned off that she wasn?t coming out the gate with another ?Foolish? type of record. this sudden sexy coo mess was kinda strange looking back
It got her a hit, but idk why she deviated away from that first album sound so quickly
Sorry but I LOVED this song and I still do. :dead:
Ashanti is a terrible vocalist but eeeevery once in a while she will write and arrange a song that exceeds my expectations. I honestly love her.

She was missing 7 Aurelius on
Chapter II that's why. He was the creative one.
Not bey dancing on top of her name
And then Ashanti coming out afterwards with a PowerPoint presentation .
The album was a rushed, awful mess. When I heard it, I knew Bey was finna plank over her.
Ashanti is more talented than Bey when it comes to writing though and rivals her beauty so don?t act like Bey shits completely on her because she don?t.

Chapter II was basically good for the summer and that's about it, imho. It's essentially a summer album. There were more fillers than anything else. I was glad when 7 Aurelius came back on board for
Concrete Rose without him, Only U wouldn't had happened.
