In reply to REALTALK.

My thoughts exactly and I am an Ashanti Fan....she has gone the independent route but is taking much too long to drop videos meanwhile Dawn is on a roll...

As a matter of fact I didn't even watch the video yet but I'm sure it is good because Dawn is very creative.

I'm not a Bey fan at all tho...she is too commercial/ recycled but she has a huge machine behind her to keep force feeding us her so-called hits since her Bday album.
But I agree with you that Ashanti, Brandi, Monica, Kelly and Ciara can do a lot better.
Honestly I would like to see all of my black sista's in the industry step it up....whether I'm a fan or not
