Her career took a hit because the label she was holding up and pretty much was the lead artist of (Murder inc) executives and Irv Gotti had illegal shit going kn behind the scenes thag ended up crashing the label, because ashanti wasnt part of the crimes etc shr was kind of let go but forced tk figure shit out by herself, so after settling and getting her masters she started her own independent label and shes doing great for a independent artist who ie her own boss and shes collecting all her coins and not having to split with labels and i commend that!!! Plus she writes and has written hits for other artist. Dont hate or sleep on her. And respect artist who OWN their shit!! #Period
