The rap remix to her song Rain On Me contains interpolations of Can I Live? by Jay-Z. It also contains the same sample used by Jay-Z, which is Isaac Hayes The Look Of Love.
(edit)
The rap verse by Notorious B.I.G. on Ashanti's song Foolish is the same first verse from Notorious B.I.G.'s F---ing You Tonight.
(edit)
Ashanti's hit song Foolish samples Stay With Me by DeBarge. Hip hop fans will remember this same sample used in the video and radio version of the late Notorious B.I.G.'s One More Chance.
(edit)
Ashanti's aunt lives in Rhode Island.
(edit)
Ashanti turned down a track scholarship to Hampton University to pursue her singing career.

Ashanti: I need, like, 12 (kids)... I love kids. I definitely want to get married... I'm so family oriented. I want the big wedding, I want the long marriage, I want kids. (But) I've got to stack my cheese a little bit more... I want to be able to bring my kids into the world nice and comfortable.
(edit)
Ashanti: (on how she lost weight for promotional appearances in 2007) I did the lemon-pepper-maple syrup diet for seven days. When I got really hungry, I ate fruit. I lost eight pounds and kept it off.
(edit)
Ashanti: Find something you love, and do it well!
(edit)
Ashanti: (on when she was recording her album, and the producer of the late Tupac’s album allowed her to “record” with the legendary rapper) I was recording my album... Right place, right time. They actually had the record done already and they were coming to the studio to play the mix, so I heard the record and I'm like, 'This is hot. I need to be on this record. I can't even believe that he's been gone for 10 years; it doesn't feel like that. His spirit just flows throughout the industry.
(edit)
Ashanti: You know how some guys smell like old clothes, like they’ve been in a hamper? They wanna hug up all on you, smelling like they’ve been playing ball all day. That doesn’t work.

"Trendsetter"Great I like Ashanti. She is a really good singer and she could not be more pretty. I think Ashanti is underrated now, but before she was a bit overrated. Continue » Posted Aug 25, 2006 7:23 am PST |
