Ashanti‘s back and determined to reclaim her Princess of R&B title. Her new track You Can’t Deny It (Ridah) is essentially a sample of 2Pac’s Ambitions Az A Ridah. Ashanti’s voice is more suited to whispering “baby, baby, baby” rather than proclaiming “I’m a straight ridah!” Although she seems a little out of place, Jim Jones guest feature adds some grittiness. Ashanti shines at moments, but leaves us hoping the best is yet to come.
prob dj z.. itz okay.. not betta n not worse... it got some trickky lyrics n da beat is light not heavy enof... but Jim Jones makes it betta... his voice is what is needd more in dis song... hope the remix is gonna be some good rappa like lil wayne...
It just seems fake. I really never thought Ashanti was gangsta maybe Nelly makes her more gangsta lol. And NO I'm not hatin I actually like Ashanti just more low key. Not hot!
I guess Ashanti likes two of the greatest rappers. She did a Biggie song in the past called "Foolish" of her first album self-titled Ashanti. Now she is doing a Tupac song. She downgraded the song a little but it was alright. I cannot blame her for being influenced by two of the greatest rappers, but most of all, two of the greatest musicians to ever live.
Gud on tha chorus but cmon ashanti aint gangsta. Nor should she try n b. 2pac did it rite tha first time. Now it would b slik krispy if it wuz lil wayne's song.
No otha gurl should attempt this song unless their name is Missy Elliot or Keyshia cole. They tha only tru gangsta's (not including ol school fem. rapperz.) Ashanti should juz flush the whole singn thang.
