      • Dem Lessors October 14, 2014

  3. B’rocka SLays October 14, 2014

    this is shouldve been released as soon as the album was
    there was no decent single at that time

    • B’rocka SLays October 14, 2014

      Ashanti: PLEASE GET SIGNED AGAIN
      THIS LOOKED CHEAP AS F***

    • Dem Lessors October 14, 2014

      I Got It was the only good song on the album.

  4. BettyB October 14, 2014

    The song is good!! But we all know it will flop! Hard rock and RNB dont get the airplay they deserve.

    • Lilly October 14, 2014

      That’s so not true because I hear Kelly Rowland almost every day. So I don’t think that’s a good answer

      • amandabynesrehabiltated October 14, 2014

        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!

      • NOLIES October 14, 2014

        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

  6. Beysus October 14, 2014

    HAAA Beyonce killed her 11 years ago..

    • Katy Cat October 14, 2014

      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

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        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…

    • Facts October 14, 2014

      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!

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        LOL Bet Awards 2003 performances…

      • aml October 14, 2014

        Chapter 2 only sold a million check DIL sales
        #recpiets!!

      • Facts October 14, 2014

        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.

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        LOL she could never last with Bey in the game anyway..

      • Facts October 14, 2014

        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.

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        Girl no… This is a Beyonce world… Ashanti would just have ended up like Brandy or Ciara or Keyshia or Keri…

      • Facts October 14, 2014

        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.

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        5 consecutive #1 albums and sold out tours…

      • Facts October 14, 2014

        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.

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        Bey is the best female performer… Obviously people want to know if people can outdo her…

      • Facts October 14, 2014

        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.

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        Well people attack her, so we defend her… Ashanti is irrelevant now… Errbody knows that…

  7. Darkchild October 14, 2014

    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

  8. Beysus October 14, 2014

    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!!!

    • NOLIES October 14, 2014

      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!?

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        Can you believe that you are talking s***???

      • NOLIES October 14, 2014

        Can you prove me wrong? *sips tea*

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        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*

      • NOLIES October 14, 2014

        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*

      • Beysus October 14, 2014

        Um…. “4” outsold 5 Rihanna albums… *sips tea* ain’t no decline… *sips tea* Rihanna still scared to release #R8???

  9. B October 14, 2014

    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!

    • NOLIES October 14, 2014

      Looks like the cheap red version of Pour it Up to me, but o.k.

  10. NOLIES October 14, 2014

    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.

  11. SMH October 14, 2014

    Too little, WAY too late.

  12. NeneLeaksPeriods October 14, 2014

    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.

  13. Brian310 October 14, 2014

    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).

  14. LB October 14, 2014

    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.

    • hivehighness October 14, 2014

      Do you have a life outside of this blog?

  15. LB October 14, 2014

    I always skip over this song on the album, she should have released Runaway or Scars

    • jjjschmidt October 14, 2014

      I agree! Scars is one of my favorite songs off of Braveheart.

  16. Oh, so we doing this today? October 14, 2014

    Samatha, When you gonna post the pics of beyonce’s shredded edges?

    • Molly October 14, 2014

      kii I gotta see

  17. iLoveMusic October 14, 2014

    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.

  18. Molly October 14, 2014

    Cheapshanti

  19. ~The Arcade~ October 14, 2014

    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.

  20. BeyRihLiyah October 14, 2014

    basic and cheap

  21. shar October 14, 2014

    Well that was highly underwhelming

  22. DatDude October 14, 2014

    Ashanti went in on them wigs on this video I like it just wish it had more lighting in the video..

  23. FutureCIARA October 15, 2014

    Damn Shanti, Get it together boo……

  24. Musika October 15, 2014

    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…

  25. JuJu October 15, 2014

    Did she shoot this with a Motorola?
