Ashanti Beautifully Embracing Carnival Vibes In Bermuda

First and foremost, we have to give the “Baby” singer a quick shoutout for serving at Bermuda’s Carnival event earlier this year.

As The Shade Room reported, she shared numerous uploads back in the early summer to commemorate the trip, and she definitely went all out.

All things considered, she said the event offered “an amazing first visit” to Bermuda, and Ashanti looked proud as a peacock as she rocked the carnival costume!

Making An Impact With “Mesmerize”

Moving along to her discography, we must pay tribute to the vibes that Ashanti cooked up alongside Ja Rule in “Mesmerize.”

From her lovely (and spicy) melodies to the Grease-themed music video and fairground aesthetics, the duo slid on the track and made it an instant classic that’s sure to flood listeners with memories.

Additionally, she let viewers know wassup by donning an all-black, leather lewk that was fierce and form-fitting.

Looking Stunning In A Strappy Get-Up

Speaking of fierce, Ashanti brought her A-game while wearing a strappy gown at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs).

In short, this outfit was a whole statement piece, and the sultry dress was accompanied by a friendly smile in her red carpet pics.

You better let ’em know, Ashanti!

Proudly Rekindling Her Nelly Romance

Of course, we’d be remiss to not mention Ashanti and Nelly bringin’ the HEAT during a concert performance.

As The Shade Room reported, the artists cranked up the heat last year during Power 98.3 and Power 96.1‘s “Under The Mistletoe” concert, as they performed “Body On Me” together.

The interaction — along with some other developments — sparked speculation of a rekindled romance, which Nelly later confirmed during a sit-down with Rasheeda Frost. It’s also worth noting that Ashanti rocked a throwback photo of her and Nelly on her clutch at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards. IKTR!

Too Convincing Of A Serve?

In 2008, Ashanti unveiled the music video for “The Way That I Love You,” and — while some enjoyed the captivating, crime-inspired piece — others were left stunned in a more negative way.

According to Rolling Stone, some critics accused the music video of “glorifying violence,” as it was focused on a scorned woman confronting an unfaithful lover before brutally killing him.

While some were taken aback, the vast majority of listeners continued to lose themselves in Ashanti’s mystifying melodies, and the track goes strong to this day.

#3

Fabulous Furs

Next up, we have a series of fashionista moments focused on Ashanti looking fab in fur!

Ashanti and Ja Rule performed during the 2021 installment of Dick Clark’s New Rockin’ Eve in Times Square, and she let fans know that she was donning customized faux fur.

This is far from the only occasion when Ashanti pulled up looking warm and luxurious. Check out some other instances down below!

#4

Serving Up A Whole VIBE With "Rock Wit U"

Taking it back to her discography and music video artistry, we’d be remiss to leave “Rock Wit U (Awww Baby)” out of the conversation.

This lighthearted track is accompanied by tropical-themed visuals, and it’s all about celebrating the fun vibes that come with newfound love!

#5

Bringing Fashion While Taking The Stage

While on the subject of her artistry, it’s only fair for us to note that Ashanti is sure to serenade fans with style when she’s hittin’ the stage.

Check out some of her onstage lewks below!

#6

Getting In Her Bag With "Foolish" & "Unfoolish"

Finally, it’s only fitting for us to end with a shoutout to “Foolish,” one of Ashanti’s most memorable hits.

Capitalizing on the track’s success, Ashanti also provided a poppin’ remix through “Unfoolish,” which featured the late Notorious B.I.G.

These tracks have withstood the test of time and are sure to spark memories when they come on!

Happy birthday, Ashanti!
