Ashanti personality and professionalism put her in first place for VERZUZ.

[@gibsonshaniquak]

Shanti is well media trained & it shows. Such a professional 💅🏾.

[@kimberlyrussell3111]

I have always liked Ashanti. It’s a shame she doesn’t get the recognition that she deserves. She’s very underrated.

[@BosTVProductions]

People have to support, buy, and play her music. 🤷🏾‍♀️ If you love an artist support them. (Generally speaking)

[@miystiqueskillz2233]

You must be young ashanti dominated in the early 2000's ..yall need to find a different word other than UNDERRATED because yall don't know what it means ..ashanti is not UNDERRATED she been in the game over 20years she is at legend status now! Smh

[@cocot9414]

Because he himself has no personality. He is either hiding behind his father's opinions or "crushing" on woman. He doesn't seem to have his own thoughts outside of those 2 things.

[@ladybisshetravels01]

Ashanti all the way for me. Definitely great vibes, classy, professional..and she SANG well over her tracks! 💕

[@craigfurlow7692]

I feel like my girl's fame kinda dimmed a bit after the Concrete Rose era and the disillusion of Murder Inc. Yeah, she's still been around, but she hasn't been nearly as successful since that era. But I feel like the VERZUZ battle has re-ignited a lot of people's attention towards her, and reminded a lot of people how dope she is. Much deserved. I AM HERE FOR ASHANTI 2021.

[@michellehill2392]

I wish they had asked Ashanti what does she think of all these artists/songwriters and producers selling their masters and why would they do that.

[@shunda1781]

They need the money

[@linel1295]

The fact that u guys have to bring Keyshia down to brag about another is beyond me. Both are Queens Periodt. 👑 She had her technical difficulties and she could’ve chose a better list because Keisha do have HItS!

[@jamm1227]

Keyshias DJ played her. They had no strategy going in. 70% of her hits were played in the first round. And mind you Ashanti played her B hits. And still won like 3-4 of the first 10. They underestimated Ashantis catalogue. I love them both but being in different locations didn’t do this verzuz justice. I wish they would have just waited to do it in person.

[@angelaj4504]

I love both artists. I agree KC could of had a better catalog including play her and Ashanti duet . I think KC attitude was allot more tamed then usual because she could had been ratchet so I give her credit.
