Ashanti

It would be true to say that the Ja Rule collaboration 'Always On Time' made Ashanti a happy lady. But it would also be fair to say that it made her label Def Jam very happy too, being their top selling single ever. A match made in heaven? Another great collaboration was on J. Lo's 'I'm Real' and it was pretty much job-done as far as Ashanti's career was concerned. Having won the Mastercard MOBO Award 2002 for Best R&B Act, she's back again in 2003 defending her title. Stiff competition come in the shapes of Beyonce, Mr Timberlake, Kelly Rowland and Terri Walker. Ashanti's new single 'Rain On Me' will be with you late October.
