GO ASHANTI!

I LOVE this song! I hope it's a top 10 hit for her.

It's a great song, but you guys know it isn't her "lead" single, right? She released a ****** mcshit-**** digital single called "Hey Baby," which sucked and blowed. And flopped.

Well that didn't sound like an effort since she didn't release a video. For me this is her first single.

Here were last week's chart positions for "The Way That I Love You"

Hot 100 - #88
R&B 100 - #30

It's currently #14 on ITunes R&B/Soul Top 100.

Plus Ashanti was in an anti-hate commercial alongside....
Andre 3000, Sarah Bareilles, Portia de Rossi, Estelle, Janet Jackson, T.R. Knight, Taylor Swift and more!

doing better than I expected

Hey Baby DID flop, but they were testing the waters with it, it had too much going against it anyway, the reuse of the Last Night beat, saying Baby 100X's, i'm glad they scrapped it & released TWTILY.

She needs to start promoting! Perform it everywhere, cuz she could really have a smash hit on her hands with this.

I saw a shortened version of the anti-hate vid on MTV this morning with Ashanti, Janet, André and a couple others who I'm forgetting.

Ashanti will be releasing/premiering a second single in the middle of May. She will be performing "The Way That I Love You" before you know it She just did a taped performance on TV but it wont air until May. She plans to do a media/promotional blitz in April/May. The album is scheduled to release on June 10th, depending on how well "The Way That I Love You" does.
