Review

Budding R&B superstar Ashanti gets her very own tribute album!

Features fresh and invigorating new covers of the hit singles Foolish and Unfoolish as well as fan favorites such as Happy, Leaving (Always On Time Part 2) and many more!

Ashanti s self-titled debut rocketed up the Billboard charts, setting off title waves of critical praise for what is surely one of the most auspicious debuts in R&B music!

No artist was more omnipresent [on urban radio] throughout 2002 than Ashanti. - All Music Guide

One of the premiere performers to emerge from the R&B-infused pop phenomena, Ashanti (born Ashanti S. Douglas) practically dominated urban radio with her stellar self-titled debut album in 2002. Her astonishingly smooth yet powerful vocal skills, gracefully wrapped in the finest cutting-edge production, caressed the ears with a sultry soulfullness unlike any other. Whether grooving on the super catchy Foolish or dueting with hip-hop artist Ja Rule on the ultra funky Always On Time, both Top Ten singles, Ashanti never fails to impress and is easily the most promising young artist in modern R&B. Foolish, indeed, it would be for such an astounding presence to go unrecognized and, for this reason, a diverse group of hip-hop, R&B and soul music producers from around the globe have united together to pay tribute to the immensely talented Ashanti. The result is a fresh and invigorating new spin on songs from her 2002 debut (and beyond), which simultaneously celebrate the originals as well as cast light on their profound complexity. Enjoy! --Cleopatra Records

Who ever keeps doing these Tribute cd's seriously needs to stop. It's not funny. The singers are horrible. It's a disgrace to the artist. Nobody asked for this!
