She's talking about Irv when she refers to being betrayed, especially the part about the money. He kept her masters and blocked her career from flourishing once she left him and his label. She was young and naive when she was dealing with him but when she grew up a bit and got the courage to walk away, that's when she got with Nelly the first go around years ago. Then, Irv basically was on a mission to destroy her career. The "boys club" of producers and labels in the industry agreed to NOT work with her, basically siding with Irv, and it went on for years. Meanwhile, the whole time Irv was telling her all she had to do was drop Nelly. She stayed with Nelly but kept her relationship with him on the down-low. That's why they are so purposely open to the public about their love for eachother this time around. It's an eff u to Irv because they were forced to be so secretive the first time around. Anyway, back then Ashanti & Nelly's relationship did eventually become public and Irv let her go from the label but continued to block her from getting signed to another label. So, she toured with Nelly while her own career stalled because she was basically in a career limbo at that time even though she still had many hits circulating the airwaves. During that time, Nelly's sister died of leukemia and it sent him into a depression and that affected their relationship. Ashanti tried to ride it out with him but they've both said that they were both just too broken emotionally at that point in their lives. Then, they broke up. They were both young and both superstars and both under a lot of pressure. Everyone thought it was about cheating rumors but it was actually really deeper than that. They were dealing with career sabotage, family d€¤th and a lot of uncertainty within themselves and about their future. After their breakup, Ashanti eventually rebuilt her career by getting a team of her own, booking her own shows and building her presence on tours all across the world. She set up her own company, she took control of her own destiny, and became a BOSS. Then, BOOM, Nelly walked across that stage at Versus and we all see the ROCK on her finger in this video! Irv tried to stop her money, her career, and her love, but he does NOT have the power to stop her! Only God is the author of all of our stories. What God has for you, no man can taketh. PERIOD!!!
Not only a rock on her finger but a baby in her belly, everything someone tried to take God gives it to you in divine time so that the foundation is stronger.
Agree....you make an understandable point. Ashanti has made valued traction in the arts and entertainment world.....Including BEST SELLER "MY NAME IS A STORY" .... AND that IT is. ASHANTI is truly amazing in how she deals with all that EVERYDAY SHIT WE ALL GO THROUGH". ❤❤❤ You Ashanti. Must admit Ashanti and Nelly RECONNECTION is Going to be a process they have to be able to manage with serious concern about baby addition...about their successful careers in a high scale industry....and about themselves as parents and as individuals they have become in the same industry of entertainment. I have always rooted for Ashanti from day one of watching "FOOLISH" video......where her singing and acting skills came together so amazingly. But must admit I am taking a second look at Nelly after not trailing his every move before now. TRULY, I want their this time around to work out fine.
Right they mad she getting the love from the general public that she deserved but was dealing with a clown that made her sick of the thing she loved, now she has a resurgence and I'm loving it, what's God has for you is for you no matter the time it's all divine and she looks good glowing, wait until the reveal she going to look so cute and I believe she going to be outside with it.
They just throw up anything for clicks. I think these two will prevail...will be a bit rocky...but keep their heads down, build their relationship...and do it.
you aint lied, she was birn badass and queen at the same time. I always think her grandpa Jimmy gave her a way out of murder inc so her grand baby cud be free to love and do what she loves how she wants it, but that irv closed all doors for her, but she phoenixed that shit...way to go Shan baby
Sometimes I just wanna go thru here and cuss all the missable ass people out. #Nelly # Ashanti are strong boned now. He takes time from his tour to go check his women.& she do the same. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was thinking the same thing. If that was the case She sure was wearing his jewelry that he purchased for her birthday. Can someone explain that. Go Beautiful Ashanti! Do your thang Libra twin!
Aweee Ashanti is glowing and is gaining with her pregnancy, she is pretty. Do I see a huge engagement ring on her finger? Nice ring! All the best to Ashanti and Nelly.
Oh yeah, she been wearing since the end of Juicy fest and she look great with they baby in her belly, the GP is in love with her, happy she getting this overwhelming love.
@@OleMiss662 Look at her birthday video while she was at the club in pink. It was on another finger...she ran her hand across his chains.. No wonder he was cheesing like that...
@@yvonnebarnettjd2189 When that man said I got to have her, he already knew what to do if she gave him another chance, the Ninja listen to Scars, he working triple time, I wouldn't be surprised if he put her on the Riri baby plan.😅❤
@@OleMiss662Nelly didn't walked across that stage for nothing he knows actually what he need and want. Nelly and Ashanti is winning 2024 sit back and watch his plans for Ashanti. That rock on her finger is extensive and gigantic
