Ashanti putting up HUUUUUUGE numbers

[King-Suge]

I dont understand..but as of right now Ashanti is on pace to sell over 600,000 copies this week..yes 600,000.  I dont even know what to say but this is a bad sign for music.  Ashanti is just so average..I dont get it.  

And Jigga's sales continue to drop on Best of Both Worlds...poor Jigga--at least Song Cry is picking up steam.  But yah..Its a travesty of justice that Jigga is getting the short end of the stick on this.

NO FUCKIN WAY,

NO FUCKIN WAY ASHANTI IS SELLIN 600 K

200 K MAX!!

You tellin me she gonna out sell Celine Dion?

[West Coast Veteran]

Murder INC promoted her very well. if u put out a shitty album but u promote it very well it is gonna sell.

[Quadruple OG]

Murder INC promoted her very well. if u put out a shitty album but u promote it very well it is gonna sell.

Murder Inc. definately promoted it well, as with the Ja Rule album.  Using the same sample that Biggie used for "One More Chance" remix didn't hurt either.  I picked this album up, and I liked it.

U think shes dope? With her singing skills or what?
If thats the case there are a plenty more real R and B singers that actually know how to song like Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, so on.

[Nosak]

thats the problem with ya'll people, ya'll always searching more bogus on the background, yA'll always hae to find something wrong about something

but she has very few singing skills. At least Truth Hurts knows how to sing Opera. Ashanti is just a regular singer like J Lo

see another comparaison,


j.lo sell well , so why should ashanti can't sell well ??
i seriously think that this girl got  some skills , it ain't like she was a vanilla ice of r & b or some

[BossPlaya]

y y'all hatin on Ashanti 4 shes a dope ass singer shes a way better singer than j-lo j-lo should just stick 2 movies n leave her singin career alone y'all r just probably hatin on her cuz shes w/ murder INC. n Ja Rule but fuck that shes fuckin dope hey BROWNPRIDE have u even heard her album if u havent i suggest u go pick it up n listen 2 it completely dont just judge her for always on time or tha other 3 singles she has out right now altough she came pretty tight on "Whatz Luv" check tha charts homie she has a 3 singles out right now n all of them r in tha top ten so wat does that tell u shes 1 of tha best out there right now so.

in tha  words of tupac "check it
Don't have to bump this but please respect it"

[serv-on]

if it sells so much the shit must be tite, someone hook me up on irc

[Big_Loco_FME]

She's a decent singer, looks real good, promoted well. I got nuthin but love for her.

[Youngster323]

u guys got me wrong, its cool that shes sellin but shes just a decent singer. Literally shes not that talented as some real R and B singers. and no im not saying that cuz shes with Murder INC , cuz i am one of the few that defend rappers like Ja Rule, Nelly, and others.

heres an educational analysis

Ashanti to Alicia Keys
is like
Nelly to Jay Z.

Good for Ashanti that shes gettin money

[Nosak]

Ashanti to Alicia Keys
is like
Nelly to Jay Z.

i don't see no difference between nelly and jay-z both are commercial , both sell well and shit else then that , the only difference that i can see is in the lyrics, so ashanti can be another lauryn hill, mary j blige or janet, she's gonna go bigg in that industry, if i wouldn't had so much shit to pay i would buy her album, maybe i will, i,ll see thursday
