Not many can boast the illustrious strides Ashanti has made over her 20-year career, but – let the ‘Chapter 2’ singer tell it – there are still a few more chapters to be penned in her story.

Sitting down with “CBS Mornings” co-host Nate Burleson Monday (August 15), the GRAMMY winner dished on the ups-and-downs of her journey to becoming one of the 2000s most successful R&B acts.
