While Ashanti fans have waited patiently for the singer to release an up-tempo song, music bloggers everywhere have been itching to feature a collaborative record with rumored beau, Nelly. Well, Ashanti aficionados rejoice, because Long Island’s princess of The Inc. has teamed up with the St. Louis emcee and Akon for her new single, Body On Me. Set to be featured on her fourth EP, The Declaration, the song features a female singing lead, along with an opposing male lyrical perspective (a throwback to the early days of the Murderous ones?) For his part, Akon provides a two-stepping, smooth-piano beat, and sings a relatively unambiguous and clever hook. The Declaration is expected to hit stores and online retailers on June 3.

Damn! Im very impressed. Nelly and Akon on a track together should have happened way longer ago because they sound great together. I will be bumping this all summer long, its a good summertime record. Ashanti does her thing on here too, this is what they call a BANGER!

This is one of the best Akon productions I've ever heard. I didn't dig the new Ashanti song when she returned...but THIS IS A HIT! Akon came super smooth on the hook. I can definitely dig it. Ashanti is officially back correctly with this one. Nelly was good in this too. Good to hear him back rapping (I don't know what he was doing on that "Party People".)

cb126405 your right, this should have happened a longg time ago, they all sound GREAT on this one, Nelly finally makes a good song after the last few flunkers he's has on the Booth, and Akon flowss really smooth.. The Inc. will definitely be rising.

Everytime I see there's Akon in a collaboration I get a lil' surprised...I must be silly or what, I should have understood that he is EVERYWHERE lately lol
As for the song, I'm a girl (it's supposed to be for girls I guess) but I don't like it so much...ratings are very high but it isn't a banger to me, it's kinda boring! I've heard better...a song by Ashanti I really like is Only You, this last would be my kind of song! In rotation, though |

Anybody who has said this would be a great album track is 100% correct. The fact of the matter is that even with a discount on Nelly, there is no way you pay for an Akon beat/hook and only use the production as a filler song. You have to roll with it... It's like a bad free agent signing in sports, you gotta play the player...

Honestly, Akon is one of the best hook singers ever. Nelly and Ashanti do sound good together, too. As for this song, I agree that it's a good album track (mainly for Akon), but other than that, its not that tight.

I like the song, for Akon's participation. Everyone else does alright, but Akon's work just carries it all. Hell by the songs end he is the only memorable part, coupled with the beat.

I wouldn't mind a remix with Ja Rule featured on here! Solid effort from all 3 of them on this track. I think it has radio-potential. Maybe not a #1 smash, but it had my head bobbin'!

ashleykim couldn't say it any better. Boring and basic. This song should be played once and never again. It sounds like they had a few minutes to kill and threw this together to pass the time. I will give credit to Nelly for actually tryin on this one. Must of been Ashanti's ass..I mean talent that brought it out of him!!! Ha! Ha!
