Ashanti may have just celebrated her birthday yesterday, but it appears the once crowned ‘princess of Hip Hop & R&B’ is the one giving out the presents.
Despite reports of being hard at work on her next album, the ‘Braveheart’ beauty is giving her latest top 10 project one last push to round out the year by finally unveiling a video for fan favorite ‘Early in the Morning’ featuring French Montana.
Was it worth the wait? See Ashanti up her sexy below and tell us:

I can’t even buy a chocolate bar with the budget from this video. Independent or not this a mess, get signed again boo!
Lmao b**** did u say a chocolate bar!!! DEAD
Yes b**** I got a sweet tooth!
this is shouldve been released as soon as the album was
there was no decent single at that time
Ashanti: PLEASE GET SIGNED AGAIN
THIS LOOKED CHEAP AS F***
I Got It was the only good song on the album.
The song is good!! But we all know it will flop! Hard rock and RNB dont get the airplay they deserve.
That’s so not true because I hear Kelly Rowland almost every day. So I don’t think that’s a good answer
I’m sorry but where the hell are you hearing kelly rowland almost everyday? On your ipod? your spotify? your desktop computer? cause it cannot be the radio!
LMAOOOOO you know damn well you don’t hear Kelly on a radio. If it wasn’t for her pregnancy, her label less ass wouldn’t be on a magazine.
YESSS WORTH THE WAIT #EITM #BRAVEHEART
WATCH THE HATERS HATE
BRINGING UP BEYONCE
HAAA Beyonce killed her 11 years ago..
get a f****** life you bloody turd you are all over this blog day n night don’t you have a job? a life ? no wait don’t answer that i already know the answer Beyonce’s ain’t s*** you can cling to her mediocre album sales and tour receipts why dont you just worry about your life what are you doing with your life quit worrying about Beyonce’s achievements as if they are yours or that u will see a cent of the money she has earned
LOL it’s the October Week idiot so I’m off college!!! And Mediocre??? What other artist had an album with the same critical acclaim and double platinum success with a sold out stadium tour??? *sips tea* Ashanti ain’t ever coming back…
Wait how did Beyonce end Ashanti career?? You talking about when Beyonce reeased “Dangerously In Love” because last time i checked when Ashanti released “Chapter 2” it debuted at #1 and remained there for the rest of the year. Beyonce did NOT end Ashanti career. Murder inc and Ashanti herself ended her career. #Facts!
LOL Bet Awards 2003 performances…
Chapter 2 only sold a million check DIL sales
#recpiets!!
Once again!, Beyonce did not end her career. Ashanti still had platinum albums after that. And Ashanti first week sales still were all around 300,000. Her fourth album was her downfall becaue murder inc was under investigation and lost alot of money. WHich forced her to do everything on her own with her own money. THAT was her career ending, NOT beyonce.
LOL she could never last with Bey in the game anyway..
i LIke Ashanti AND Beyonce. But Ashanti and Beyonce make two different music sounds. Ashanti is PURE R&B. Beyonce is more POP Urban than R&B. Which gives Beyonce the upper advantage because she has crossover music. Ashanti doesnt have crossover music. Ashanti could have lasted in the game as an R&B artist if Murder Inc was still ongoing.
Girl no… This is a Beyonce world… Ashanti would just have ended up like Brandy or Ciara or Keyshia or Keri…
Yet Ashanti outsold Brandy, Ciara, Keyshia and Keri and any other R&B artist that came out within the last 14 years. In 2009 Bilboard stated that Ashanti has had the mot top 10 hits on the R&B charts for an R&B since the past decade. Ashanti reigned ended in 2005. Four years later with no album she still managed to accomplish something. “Beyonce filled world” but yet you have MANY artist, raging from Rihanna to Katy Perry to Lorde to Ariana Grande to Tayor Swift, who getting top ten hits left and right nowadays.
5 consecutive #1 albums and sold out tours…
The only reason people feel as if its a “beyonce filled world” is because cant no other artist do anything wihtout being compared to Beyonce. If its not Beyonce fans, its the Blogs.
Bey is the best female performer… Obviously people want to know if people can outdo her…
Thats the point. NOBODY is going to outdo her when its comes to performing and NOBODY will ever dare try to. NOBODY what’s to face that heat if they ever tried INTENTIONALLY to go up against Beyonce. Beyonce is damn near a Legend. That’s why i dont get why Beyonce stans try attacking ANY artist that try making music. NOBODY is a threat to Beyonce. She is BEYONCE, Her name alone outsells artists.
Well people attack her, so we defend her… Ashanti is irrelevant now… Errbody knows that…
Child!!
Ashanti please lay off them Krispy Kremes and sort this mess out.
Your nearly on par with Khia homemade iphone5 video.
You are a talented songwriter and can sing please sign a real deal and next time you tour the UK dont make fans wait 5 hours as you lost me as a fan and many others
Lol can you believe DIL outsold like EVERY Ashanti album??? Haaaa!!! And how many bloody remix/compilation albums she got??? Haaaa!!!! Ashanti: The Making Of Star??? Girl no. BYEEE!!!
Can you believe that DIL is B’s highest selling album and she has YET to ever see half of those sales in the last 5-6 years!?
Can you believe that you are talking s***???
Can you prove me wrong? *sips tea*
Ummm… I Am… was released 6 years ago and has sold over 3 mill copies in the US and 8 mill WW compared to DIL that sold 4.9 mill copies in the US and 11 mill WW. THERE!!! That good enough for you??? *sips tea*
LMAO dead. Exactly over 6 years ago! Since then a barely 3 million and a 3.4/3.5 million album… the decline is real isn’t it? *sips tea*
Um…. “4” outsold 5 Rihanna albums… *sips tea* ain’t no decline… *sips tea* Rihanna still scared to release #R8???
Only the outside scenes looked cheap. but why the f*** was i getting partition teas towards the end? this chick really be studying Queen Bey! Ha impact is real!
Looks like the cheap red version of Pour it Up to me, but o.k.
I can’t get into the song that much, and the video is a waste of money. She should have decided whether she was going to do s*** or going to do a plot, bc both don’t mix… She looks amazing. She just celebrated her 30th birthday testator. Good for her. Some women in their 30’s look damn near 40, if not 45.
Too little, WAY too late.
Omg the gloss effect does this video no favours, so many looks are so random. I like Ashanti and route for her but she needs to go to slick productions. French Montana made we want to throw up, auto tuned wannabe and Khloe Kardashians beech. Gosh this is bad and the hair extensions are bad.
This video is way past due idk what’s up with these R&B stars and them having messy eras(her, Keyshia, Kelly, Ciara, Mariah,etc).
But who is surprised to see the hood_hive doing what they do best, HATING.
‘
I wish they paid this much attention to Beyonce’s flopping singles and HBO concerts than they do to Ashanti.
Do you have a life outside of this blog?
I always skip over this song on the album, she should have released Runaway or Scars
I agree! Scars is one of my favorite songs off of Braveheart.
Samatha, When you gonna post the pics of beyonce’s shredded edges?
kii I gotta see
For her to be an independent artist now, this is actually pretty good. The song just needs a lil more Ashanti, & little less French Montana (bad rapper of choice). IMO, this song would’ve been a good look for her album sells. I don’t think Ashanti is irrelevant at all. She just another talented artist, that’s always underrated by people who dont know good music.
Cheapshanti
NOOOOOO Ashanti, we don’t believe you, you need more people. That movement she calls dancing is not the way to go. She’s selling herself short with these multiple attempts.
basic and cheap
Well that was highly underwhelming
Ashanti went in on them wigs on this video I like it just wish it had more lighting in the video..
Damn Shanti, Get it together boo……
She needs to call Ja-Rule again. That guy just got out of jail so they can create another big hit! Hate to say this but Ashanti’s last hit was with Ja Rule…
Did she shoot this with a Motorola?
