In reply to Jasmine.

Clearly Ashanti & Beyonce don't sing alike. Their music & styles are different (for the record Bey came out practically copying everything Ashanti did/wore etc... it was sickening).

But anyway Ashanti DOMINATED the airwaves like no other. Beyonce nor Destincy Child has ever dominated the airwaves like Ashanit did. That is why her first album holds the record for the top selling female debut. As a matter of fact her 2nd album was Beyonce only competition and the 1st week sales were about the same. Sooooo Ashanti STILL has a fan base no matter how much she is hated on. These are the facts.
