"Down 4 U" is underrated. It's my favorite of their collabs.

That was for Brandy? Nah lol. Girl no. "Always On Time" was around 2001/2002 ish? That song is beneath the high quality of Full Moon.

Also we can't forget about f#cking Bobby Brown and Whitney being in the video This is bringing back memories of me being obsessed with Ashanti for a hot minute. I bought her first album and used to spin Movies and Unfoolish for filth in my Panasonic cd player WITH anti-skip in junior high and high school. Get on my level.

I just had an impromptu trip down memory lane (as I usually do whenever I see Ashanti's thread bumped) and can I just butt in to remind everyone that the Scared->Rescue->Baby stretch is hands down one of the best !@#$%^&*() sequences in the history of track sequencing. Silly story: My mom, sister, and I were in Wal-Mart the month this came out. My sister and I would take turns buying CDs, it was her turn at the time and we were debating whether she should get Ashanti or Brandy's Full Moon that day. My Puritanical mother is closer to us than we think and is all "Is that a parental advisory on there?!" and my sister and I just looked at each other and were like "oh...yeah, it sure is ma. Dang, didn't even see that. I guess that settles that." And then I leaned in to my sister and whispered "I'll come back for Ashanti next week" lol Don't Leave Me Alone remains my absolute favorite song of hers though. I'm still so hurt it wasn't a single. The Woman You Love is still extremely underrated and I'm bummed that it wasn't the comeback it could and should have been. Admittedly the production was a little 2000-and-late for the time it was released but still, that song went in, dammit.

"The Declaration" was a good album. I was obsessed with it when it first came out.
These comments are gonna have me bumping Ashanti all day 😍.

The endless hours of scouring WinMX and stumbling upon the Rock Wit U (Awww Baby) Remix and losing my sh!t when the PYT section hit! The good old days of music premiering on 106 & Park and TRL.

I immediately had a flashback to "I Found Lovin'". That was a JAM!!! Summer 2003 was the best times. Parties, dates, clubs, break ups and fake high school friends. :'(

Don't Leave Me Alone along with the remix is some of her best work. Ashanti still puts out pretty good music though, there were only a couple tracks on Braveheart that I skipped.
